When working on a project with tight deadlines, using free illustrations might both look good and save time.
Some of my favorite resources include unDraw, IRA Design, Ouch, DrawKit and Humaaans. Downloads are available in both PNG and SVG.
What are your favorite sources for free illustrations?

This is such a useful post, since I hadn't come across any of these! thanks for sharing!
I have been using free photos/illustrations, with attribution, from freepik.com/
I also discovered that you can embed Getty Images just by using their code, which includes attributions & all: gettyimages.com/
Another place that I found that has a list of free photo sources (scroll to stock photos): allien.work/projects/link-base/
One of my favorites that I've come across this year. is from Black Illustrations. They have illustrations in various categories, including education, disability, STEM, and business. :)
Last 6 months I use illustrations from absurd.design/ I have started with the free illustrations, later I have subscribed to the membership plan.

2.flexiple.com/scale/home -->I have not used anywhere yet. But, came across in IH forum and bookmarked.
Recently came across this subreddit - reddit.com/r/FreeIllustrations/
Sometimes openclipart.org/ is a good source for that.
When if I have tight deadlines, the quickest way to create an illustration with added some creativity to it is mix-and-match some part of the illustrations from many into one. For example, if I need icons, I got visiting Flaticon and look for icons that have an element that I want, I use PS or AI to cut some part of the icons that I collected and mixing the other small part to form a unique new icon.
