Saturday drawerings, from Tron to rayguns

• I love the Chopping Block's Tron tee.  (Would the dog try to stick its head out the window of a lightcycle, too?)
• Going the other direction, Bibliodyssey points out this ancient tank design--from 1646. (Don't mistake it for a ThinkPad.) [Via]
• Illustrator-fu:
  • Veerle shows some great, simple applications of Illustrator's underused Make with Mesh command.
  • Chad Neuman has a cool idea--splashing real paint, then using Illustrator's Live Trace feature to vectorize it.
• In Little Chicken Growing Up, scientific illustrator Mieke Roth chronicled the growth of a baby chicken through a series of lovely drawings. [Via]
• Vintage:
  • Flickr features a huge mid-century illustration archive, grouped by illustrator. [Via]
  • Apropos of nothing, I stumbled upon a solid raygun illustration. [Via]
