Yep.

1. Use a pressure sensitive Wacom tablet (works in Illustrator with the brush-tool).

2. Paint them in Photoshop with a Wacom or scan a drawing on paper. If you need it in vector (like illustrator) use vector-conversion software, like Adobe Streamline to convert your pixels to vectors. Flash works fine for that also.

cheers, Jeroen

btw, nice drawing :)
But her head is in front of the logo so I can't read it.

Thanks for the comments and the tips. Thats a good idea. i have a Graphire tablet but am unsure how that works. So I trace over my drawing with it and then depending on how hard I press I can make my "ink lines" thicker or thinner in Illustrator? if thats the case thanks for your help alot Jeroen.

yep, that's how it works ;)
use the brush tool, not the pen tool.
