Description I couldn't fall asleep last night and I was fiddling around on my new iPod Touch. I was playing with Autodesk Sketchbook (the free version). It's kind of hard to sketch stuff in such a small space, but tracing things is another matter. I opened up one of my photos and traced over it, and then put some violently bright colors under the lineart - tada!

The iridescent throat-patch was inspired by hummingbirds.

The traced image:

Thanks It's a lot harder drawing on an iPod than an iPad

I think so. iPod's screen is quite small space to paint
