Thank you for these tips. I learned the basics of illustrator YEARS ago so it was nice to get to see some ideas from someone who uses it regularly.
in just about 18 minutes, I already know how to use the software in a beginner way! This video is very helpful. You'll learn techniques in minutes.
Thanks so much for this overview. I've been using an older version of Illustrator for over a decade. Returning to freelance design after having kids, you have spotlighted lots of nifty new functions that I might never have looked into. Now they will definitely improve my workflow :)
thank you mate! this was amazing. To the point, fast, useful and just perfect. Thanks
wow, and this is just 1/10,000 of what illustrator can do--I'm overwhelmed but impressed. thanks.
Fantastic, thanks a lot!
Hey ! Just wanted to take the time and thank you for your amazing tutorials! I've tried taking classes but almost all teachers have been incredibly boring and HARSH! I really enjoy learning from you and I've progressed A LOT since I found your channel. so ... Thank you again man ! God bless
Omg tip #13. You've made my life so much easier 😭💕 The way I was doing it was so complicated
The shortcut is Ctrl+Shift+O
I was always doing it from main menu :D
Feels like I learned a lot more than basics in a very straightforward, easy tutorial. I was able to pause then try on my own throughout this video without having to rewind over and over to figure out what you meant. Bookmarking this one for future help.
Never stop learning as soon someday we gonna teach the younger ones, Thanks for sharing your knowledge to us.
As a portrait artist who's been creating for about 7 years now the biggest lesson I've learned is that you should never stop learning. I know all these techniques but I'm here anyway because sometimes I find something new and useful. When it comes to art there are no limits. It's an expression and an extension of your imagination and creativity. The day I stop trying to learn more is the day I'll give up art and probably my sanity.
I ve been following lots of tutorials for the past years for all kinds of programs, this one was one of the best tutorials I ever saw!!!
This video was the most straightforward, yet informative video tutorial I've seen in a long time. Thanks!
At last Bro, Thank you so much for this👍. Was forced to watch other channels for tips and tricks on Illustrator
thank you! 2/3 through my Illustrator 1 class, some of this is a review but a lot of the wording and examples you used really helped me to understand why certain tools are used or how. thanks!!!!!
nice
Dude, I'm so thankfull for you showing us how to color in my drawings, have been frustraded with that for a while now, so simple!
Dude. Thank you. The simplicity and speed of this is absolutely optimal!
Direct, informative with no fluff... love it! Thanks.
wow I've been using Illustrator for years but I still learned so much from this, thank you!
at 18:24, Nathaniel goes "Especially for those of us, who are beginners". Wow, I mean look how much this guy cares for us man...I mean daily videos at an excellent quality and teaching you everything including the small things people would expect you to know.
Nathaniel is the best. Love you man, No homo.
I agree with you. My English is not rlly good. But somehow i can understand his explanation. Clear and bold. A lil bit too fast but i can rewind it :3
Loved how simple and straightforward you were. Thanks!
I'm not really a beginner but I watched the whole thing just because it's entertaining. You are both educational and entertaining.
Very helpful tips!! Im just starting and these makes my life better! 😄🤘👍
Thank you so much for this very educational video! I have used Adobe software for years yet I've only skirted with Illustrator. I'm happy to say that your tutorial(s) have given me the confidence to use tools I NEVER touched before. Now my client work won't take as long to complete as it used to! LOL
Thank you so much for this video. It was so helpful! I wish I had these tips when I first learned Illustrator. Now everything will be so much easier!!!!
I had found out about your channel a few weeks ago and had saved the “glass planet” tutorial but just today actually created it and finally discovering the rest of your videos! Amazing stuff man!! Subscribed :)
learning how to use this program on my own and this was a huge eye opener. thank you so much
God Bless you. Quick and to the point, but didn't leave out any importance. Best begginner tutorial video by far.
these tips are amazing!
thank you, you saved me a hell of a lot time
The merge>ungroup tip is a great time saver for creating fills for the open areas!
Such a great video! I'm an Illustrator newbie and your tutorial was SO HELPFUL lol thanks a lot! 😁
2:02: "You could also just use the backslash key". The creator means forward slash. Great video!
hey, thank u dude
Yeah, I've noticed in the industry that everyone refers to the forward slash as backslash. It's been this way so long I don't even bother differentiating or correcting people anymore. I just call the thing a backslash and keep it movin' because that's what people know lol
I thought I was buggin like, "dude I'm deleting my shape" . , .
@@mortiige5397 Same but even with the forward slash it didn't work. maybe it's a different key outside and english keyboard
Thanks I really enjoyed your tutorial and MUST watch it again and again until I get those tips and tricks done
Thanks. This is going to make me look like a pro at my Internship
Knowlege is gold, knowlege + training = unbeatable :D
one of the best tutorials ive ever seen, thanks for this
This has been SO USEFUL to me. Thank you so much from London, UK
Awesome video! Super helpful, and I didn't even have to adjust the video speed! Straight to the point :)) thanks!
What a bloody legend! Such a great lesson and very easy to follow along, excellent teacher, wish I had you at my uni!
Im slowly starting out Ilustrator, i learned so much from this video 5/5, thanks a lot !!!
I'd consider myself pretty advanced as far as using illustrator and I create some rather in-depth pieces. I still like to watch tutorials and design videos from other artists because I feel like there's always more to learn. When every new artist hits a certain point where they're comfortable using the tools they know and it works for them, they feel as if they've mastered it and there's no more to learn. I felt this way a while but I've slowly learned that you can't depend on thinking you know all there is to know and that there's always some new technique or way of approaching things that may be more efficient. I love when I find out something useful that I thought I already knew but used in a different way. I've always created my fills individually and I never use stroke and expand. I use the pen tool for everything as I feel it creates a more authentic hand drawn feel but when you showed the part about the global coloring you opened a whole new door for me. When you have 742081 layers and (I do portrait work so similar colors is something that comes up a lot in regards to shadows/highlighting) you have to recolor certain parts of the illustration, the magic wand just doesn't cut it because obviously it picks up all similar colors. Global color just made my life 10 million times easier, and I've been doing this type of work for yearssss. So fellow artists, take note of this mans techniques! Take note of all techniques and play with all the tools! Don't be afraid to mess up because it's the mistakes that teach us and guide us to better artistry! Thanks for this great video man!
thanks sir. i like how you explaining everything. you are slow and no loud background music like other youtubers
This is great! Watched a bunch of videos and googled stuff. No luck. Finally, this got me making stuff.
Awesome tutorial, thanks for all the great tips, totally inspired!
You actually make things so easy and very informative tutorials definitely subbing.
Global color tips is very helpful.Thanks
This was brilliant, very clear, informative and a fun video for learning illustrator! Many thanks :)
the thing with the alignment, I learned about it on skillshare but you just explained it so much better. Thank you
wow this video has really unveiled the uses of basic tools in illustrator
Very cool. Love the pace and content.
Very helpful tips Nathaniel. Thank you very much!
Dude, up to this point I have hated illustrator because no one could teach it properly, these tips are going to be very helpful. Thank you.
you should hate adobe 24/7
This may be the best video I have ever seen. Great job 👍
Thanks for the tips, I did learn some new stuff and how to work with the width tool.
you explain it sooooo precisely!!! keep up the good work, very very very helpful! : D
Such a great tutorial, thank you.
i am not joking, i started using photoshop and illustrator when i was 16 years old from watching your tutorials. I am now 26, and beyond advanced in both of these programs. Thanks so much for years of knowledge man, you really had a huge impact on my life, as corny as that sounds haha.
Thanks for uploading this video. This is very helpful for beginners like me.
Thanks for the great video! Very helpful!
This is the best beginner Illustrator tutorial out there.
Learned more from this video than I have with my professor at uni in half a semester :/
I went to school for graphic design and I learned more from youtube and practice than any classroom. By the time I was graduating I had my professors coming to me for advice for how to use certain tools and create certain effects. Sure schools can show you how to use certain tools and techniques, but all they're really doing is opening a door for you. You have to walk through that door and apply those things yourself and that's where the real learning comes in. School taught me how to brand a business and all that fun nonsense. I taught myself how to be a portrait artist. Wish I'd known that before I put myself in all that debt. 🤦♂️
Oficado Graphics i was just talking about this ! School only teaches the basics. At no point in college was I taught the blend or mesh tool 🤦🏾♀️
Same here
Thanks for the tips! The owl looks really cool!
this was seriously helpful. thanks so much!
Dude You Rock Man! Im going to start learning AI and you will be my teacher ahaha... thank you so much for putting this videos and for your time sir. Please keep them coming. THANK YOU!
That was incredibly helpful! Thank you so much!
This was sooo helpful. Thank you!!!
Amazing, cool. Thank you!
Thank you for such an amazing walkthrough
Fantastic video! Thanks!
You can also build more complex shapes (like re drawing a font for example) with the shape builder tool, its like the minus front and combine tool but easier to use vs thinking about what you have to punch and have in front of the item you are making. Once I learned how to use this tool, trapping and letter duplication went faster. :)
Oh. My. God.
The filling the line art tip is amazing! Wow!
It makes drawing and coloring more fun! :D
Very well presented! the tips save me a lot of time. Thank you!
I'm new to design and illustrator and my first video here. I subbed after the first tip.

Much appreciated. Thank you.
god, these tips will save me a lots of times, wish I know this sooner ! Thanks !
woah, i'm coming from sketch and i was wondering how to use features like "convert to outlines" in illustrator, this is so useful
Plz check my channel
Yes, Sir, I enjoyed it! I’ve been working with Illustrator for years but I only used the tip of the iceberg, so you gave me a lot of a-haaa! moments.
Big tip: Ditch the pathfinder panel completely by pressing Shift + M to use the Shape builder tool!
It's a lot more intuitive and visual, since you can merge shapes by dragging in between them, divide by clicking one shape, and removing by holding down Alt! Sometimes, it's better to use the pathfinder for more complex shapes with lots of merging, but other than those scenarios, the Shape Builder tool is very amazing.
Awesome 😎 Great teaching skills Bro!
Awesome video thank you very much !
That was killer. Great lesson man.
Thank you for this video!
