Retracing Detailed Artwork in Flash

Much more detailed, but still not done (although I did cheat and copy the first wing to make the second, pasting it on a new layer and then scaling it for perspective with the Free Transform Tool). The smaller details still aren’t finished--tiny lines that would be maddening to create one at a time with the Pen Tool. These kinds of lines are nothing when you’re drawing by hand; just a few scribbles and some hatching, and it’s done. That’s a little harder to do in a vector drawing program, though--but not impossible.
