Technical illustration is alive and well. A close friend works as a
freelancer, mostly doing technical illustration using software tools on all
common hardware platforms. He can do it by hand, too, if the customer wants
it that way, and sometimes does hand work that he subsequently scans or uses
as a template for use in a graphic application. He produces illustrations
ranging from cartoons or caricatures through line art of a new (or
vaporware) computer for marketing purposes to details of assembly, cables,
and connectors for installation manuals.
