I'm making images that need a whole of that image, and then a "cracked" version of that image. I've been creating the original image but then have been painstakingly dividing that image into two "halves" by adding anchor points, and drawing zig-zag lines. This is a ton of work for more detailed designs
Is there a way to "group" an image of multiple items and then just divide that in half?
example below: cracking this simple owl is easy, but cracking the boombox would be a ton of individual path manipulation.

Best solution is to place the object into a clipping mask.
Draw shape that you want the artwork to be inside of (can be any color, should be a closed shape).
Select TWO objects only. Meaning your complicated shape should be grouped for this to work. The shape that you want your illustration to be within has to be on top.
Go to object>clipping mask>make and this is what you will get! If you need to edit an object that is in a clipping mask, you have to double click the shape to edit it in isolation mode.
Hope this helps!
