Two newish methods for making illustration using fancy touch-screen thingamijigs.
First up, 'Mixel', an iPad app for making collages. There are a few examples out there that do a similar thing to this. The clever idea here is that not only can you share your work over the internet, but others can take apart your collages and re-use bits of them in their own work. You can then track how and where this has happened.

What is most interesting about this is the quality of the image that can be produced the accompanying software - a weird sort of diluted gouche look:
Retails at about £50.
