I used Adobe Illustrator and a Wacom Bamboo tablet.

Thanks, I appreciate your reply.

My work colleagues use Adobe Illustrator (pro designers for work purposes), and say It's heaps better than Adobe Photoshop. On the other hand, social friends say the opposite. That's what prompted me to ask what you're using. I'm terrible at GFX, but really enjoy viewing the work of others- particularly fine pieces like yours.
