EVERY time I think I'll just skip forward, I know this but check it out, just in case, I learn valuable things. You just thought me so much and I'm so grateful. Thank you!
Thorough. Thank you. I've been watching videos that have no narration and have been very frustrated. I like to work at the same time as the video but I can not have both screens visible at the same time. You have been very helpful in explaining the process and not moving too quickly.
Ginger Galloway Thanks for this Ginger, I am glad you found the video. If you are into drawing spheres, you may like to try the hot air balloon one here: th-cam.com/video/uwrGaTaWyLs/w-d-xo.html the basic technique is similar.
Andrea Kalli Internet Marketing Virtual Assistant Great news.. now you might like this one too on making a hot air balloon... as it is done in a similar way... th-cam.com/video/uwrGaTaWyLs/w-d-xo.html

+Niamh Beirne Yes you can. Just open it inside Illustrator using File > Place. Then make it into a Symbol (as shown in the video) and you can apply it to the sphere. Just be aware that you will want an image which is pretty much twice as wide as it is high so it won't be horribly distorted.
This video was really helpful and clear! But I am having some trouble with the map art. I made my pattern and did everything right, but when I try to apply my pattern in the map art, I can't drag my pattern to fit the shape. Not sure how to fix this could you help?
+Tracy McNicoll Yes it is Tracy - it will be pulled out of shape a bit but you will get a similar result and the process is the same as using a pattern - just make a symbol of it. You will need a photo that is wider than it is tall a 3:1.5 ratio of width to height will be about right.
Yes you can give that a try. You'll need to create the image as a symbol. You'll also need to create a sphere with no rotation so that you only have one face to add the image to. It should be possible. Let me know if you have any questions. I'll be interested to hear how you go.
I am not quite sure what you are asking. But if you want to make the surface of the sphere show a grid then you have to create the grid and save it as a Symbol. Then do exactly as I did in this video to cover the sphere with the grid.
I am sorry Rebecca - I am not sure what you are talking about - this video has nothing to do with brushes and butterflies. Perhaps if you can tell me what you are trying to find I can help?
thank you ! Wonderful video. Only one thing that bugs me ---- please refrain from saying "go ahead" - that's an American oral disease. Even if I mute sound and play subtitles, it still writes it. Thank you.
I am so sorry Lesley. I had no idea I was saying that and I certainly try not to sound American (although I live in the USA). I will work at listening to what I say in future and try to tone down my use of that phrase.
EVERY time I think I'll just skip forward, I know this but check it out, just in case, I learn valuable things. You just thought me so much and I'm so grateful. Thank you!

Make Gorgeous 3D Patterned Spheres in Adobe Illustrator #illustrator #tutorial
+Niamh Beirne Yes you can. Just open it inside Illustrator using File > Place. Then make it into a Symbol (as shown in the video) and you can apply it to the sphere. Just be aware that you will want an image which is pretty much twice as wide as it is high so it won't be horribly distorted.
Very helpful. Thank you.

This video was really helpful and clear! But I am having some trouble with the map art. I made my pattern and did everything right, but when I try to apply my pattern in the map art, I can't drag my pattern to fit the shape. Not sure how to fix this could you help?
great tutorial, thanks a lot
I am so glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for stopping by.
What's that move you do in 0:54 to make a square selection, but you don't mention?
You use the Selection tool - it is the black arrow tool in the tool panel. It is used to select an entire object.
Thank you, but then I realized it was the free transform tool. :-)
Cool. Glad you worked out what you needed to use.
Another great tutorial Helen. I watched this after your photo cube today, is it possible to use a photo instead of a pattern on the sphere?
+Tracy McNicoll Yes it is Tracy - it will be pulled out of shape a bit but you will get a similar result and the process is the same as using a pattern - just make a symbol of it. You will need a photo that is wider than it is tall a 3:1.5 ratio of width to height will be about right.
Thank you. very helpful video :)
Thank you for stopping by my channel.
Can we do this using raster images instead? is it going to give me the same effect? many thx
Hi Helen,
Is it possible to add a 3d created image on top of sphere?
Thank you
You're welcome, Thank you for stopping by my channel.
Thank you so much!
You're welcome. Thank you for stopping by my channel.
Thank you!!!!!!
You're welcome, Thank you for stopping by my channel.
Great
Thank you for stopping by my channel.
Hi! What if I need to wrap a rasterized image - say, photo - around a sphere, how could I? Will all this logic apply?
Yes you can give that a try. You'll need to create the image as a symbol. You'll also need to create a sphere with no rotation so that you only have one face to add the image to. It should be possible. Let me know if you have any questions. I'll be interested to hear how you go.
thanks!
You're welcome, Thanks for stopping by the channel
THX well done
You're welcome, Thanks for stopping by my channel.
how we make the grid like sphere
I am not quite sure what you are asking. But if you want to make the surface of the sphere show a grid then you have to create the grid and save it as a Symbol. Then do exactly as I did in this video to cover the sphere with the grid.
I can't find the brushes and butterflies????
I am sorry Rebecca - I am not sure what you are talking about - this video has nothing to do with brushes and butterflies. Perhaps if you can tell me what you are trying to find I can help?
sorry, I sent to a wrong person.
