I grew up always wanting to be a spy like James Bond. Who doesn’t? It’s all about fast cars, beautiful women, cool gadgets, and the occasional martini — and getting shot at by a few hundred henchmen. This vector pack comes with 7 doodled vector objects (in one EPS file). To celebrate all that is awesome about being a “Double-O” spy, I’ve created these vectors for your designing pleasure. Use them to add some “international man of mystery”-ness to your designs. Spy away!
