Pictograms: To the computer!!

My next step was to translate my ideas into Adobe Illustrator.  

First up is the globe.  This one was actually quite fun to try and put together.  I free-handed the map of the world (and yes, it's hard to have that much talent) and chose a color scheme.  The color version came first, and then I translated it into black and white. 

Next up: the paper map.  I wanted to make it have a old, worn look, but I think I could've gone farther with the ripped edges and adding creases and such.  As it is, I still like it, even though it looks too pristine to have been in the hands of explorers and ye olde crusty pirates.

*I have no idea why the rest of the sea monster didn't show up in the color one....

Lastly: the GPS.  Now, I haven't had a lot of experiences with these newfangled gadgets, but I do know what one looks like, and its presence catapulted my pictograms into the modern age.  I wanted to make it a combination of the map and the globe, because it is flat, and rectangular-ish like the map, but still has a sheen on it, like the globe.  However, I wanted the colors to be bright and vibrant, but that didn't really do much to unify it with the other two.
