I was searching for something completely different this morning, when I came across this tutorial. I just happened to be working on a rope in one of my designs, but your method is SO MUCH BETTER. Brilliant! Thank you.

I have learned so much from you Dansky! I studied graphic design with a uni, and I didn't learn as much as I hoped... Watching your channel has allowed me to get better in my designs and understand how it all works by a few clicks. Thank you!

[@Black.Sabbath]

It's almost like you should have used TH-cam in the first place.

[@VeronikaPoloni]

[@oidede]

Maravilhosa Qualidade e Conteúdo, performance, tudo, Dansky!! Parabéns pelo trabalho e pela dádiva

[@fernandotuno]

Great tutorial!!!

[@Unlmtdprogress]

For those who are using this tutorial and getting jagged lines, etc.. That means you did not align the shapes when creating the symbol! Go back and align everything properly... and do it again! Yes, you still might get jagged lines on some of the stuff, even though you did everything right... simply fix that by changing the stroke from center to inside, or outside. Hope this helps

Thank You so much Dansky, this is a great most fun and instructive tutorial, i really learned allot from it. for the future if you are inspired to share your Process on how to Clean up Artwork, as i am having a bit of trouble with Pathfinder tools. in solid mode things look good, but in Outline Mode it's a Total Mess. i have a bit of understanding of how they work, i may be missing some pointers on how to get a better Result or even better on how to avoid them from the get go. Once again thank You so much. Great Job

Thanks for the nice video, when you have made some angels, there were some problems in angles appearance. How to fix those issues without doing complicated manual fixes to results?

Thanks From EGYPT. ^^

[@STUDY-TECH-HUB]

Very Nice Subscribed ♥

[@rossmcvinnie6903]

Great tutorial - very useful technique and very clear explanation. I have a question - when you expand your shapes and turn lines into shapes, is there a reason why you use "Expand…" and not "Outline Stroke"? Is there a difference?

[@charltonwiggins8965]

Great info and tutorial. One question... Is there an easy way to colorize the interior of the rope itself, not just the outline?

[@nositelle]

good one!

[@ForeverDansky]

Thanks Pauline!

[@arioso1525]

I stumbled upon your vid and it really helped me with my artistic embroidery in Illustrator. Cheers !!
Btw, I didn't think first to create a brush and then apply to a figure, I meticulously tried to draw a path BY HAND with the Pen tool and anchor points and, yeahhh, it was terrible 😏🙄 so turned to your advice. Thanks a lot))

[@ForeverDansky]

You’re welcome Arioso 😊 Some things do need to be done manually for sure, but if there’s a tool that’s better suited to it, oftentimes it’s quicker and more effective to use that instead 👍

[@mysupervideoful]

Great tutorial! Could you please make a tutorial on how to create a braid pattern brush as well!

[@alisha_madariaga]

It would be the exact same way as in this tutorial. Except you’d take the shape you get after using the pathfinder tool- copy the shape & reflect. And voila you have a braid

[@WildKatatHeart65]

Really cool. Yeah, I don't have that nifty corner tool in cs6. I suppose it could be done manually?
