This illlustration of the pharmaceutical pill emerging from the pipette was done for the advertisement on the left. It was also used for the banner ads which included a flash animation of the stuff coming down the pipete and the pill emerging from the pipette. On the right is the html email. The illustration was made as a vector graphic in Illustrator using the gradient mesh tool. I am not really an illustrator and prefer to hire outr but sometimes budgets do not allow, and perhaps unfortunately, because i like to have the bestfinished pieceI can ,I end up spending the same amout of time or perhaps eve nmore as an illustrator would for far less compensation.

Other kinds of illustration include items used in the magazine:

 

and photo montage:
