Here's the sketch that I was talking about in this video: bit.ly/2RLNbbF (forgot to add the link earlier! 💀)
i just wanna thnk you so much, i appreciate this video from you sir!
uh thak uh you
uhhhhhhh tutvid
I agree it you are very knowledgeable..however..with the beginner just as myself I would like to suggest if I may to do another video but talk slower so we could be more receptive to your your broad knowledge. I have to keep rewinding and pausing.
It does not allow me to download the jpg. It is in view mode...unless I'm doing something wrong!

5 years of using illustrator and I never knew about the shaper tool, this is going to make everything so much easier!
I love how you recognize the “funky weird things” that get overwhelming
I have literally learnt more of you in the past 10 minutes than I have done in my 3 year graphic design university course😳
Thank you❤️
What?
Exactly. I learned C language more in 10 days through internet than my 1 year in college.
@@supreetkumar7604 maybe bc college is aware of the fact that u can learn it using the internet? xd why would any school teach u these basics if they are three clicks away
@@zofka9894 I think what Rosie means is that this information is more applicable than what was taught in the school
Scarlett Johansson 123 you see the thing here is schools are suppose to teach you all these stuffs in the first place. That’s why you pay them, you saying what you’ve just said is like paying for something you’re not gonna use.
Just downloaded Illustrator, and this is the first tutorial I watched. Very helpful, thorough and perfect for beginners like me. Thank you so much; I learned so much and am looking forward to learning more! You guys are the absolute best.
Hi, I am just a beginner just like you on this day. I would like to ask you how is your progress now? Are you now able to use AI easily? Thank you.
Wow you explained it so well! A lot of other people forget that we are beginners (even tho they put "for beginners" in their title) and they don't mention how for example make the picture bigger or smaller. And i'm out here confused like how tf did you do that, but you explained everything in details. Thankyou!
Mate!
This is THE most legendary tutorial I've ever seen in my life!
Seriously can't spot anything negative, presentation:spot on and thank you for going into detail for every single click or button that you pressed,
so helpful!
Thank you so much!
Keep it up!
One of the best Pen Tool Tutorials I've ever seen! THANK YOU, when you said "You click and start scribbling, and do all this crazy stuff... and then you get frustrated and put the pen tool away, and then you don't touch it again" it hit so hard to home, my neighbors woke up haha. But really, I related to it immediately, but thanks to you, I believe I understand the Pen Tool a little bit better. Regards from México!
the magnifying glass effect in your tutorials is soo helpful for doing these - as I usually have this open beside illustrator.
Thank you.
I love how you explained this, so neat and helpful. Good job!!!
Great intro to the pen tool - I think it's one of those tools that everyone is afraid of or just don't know about it's usefulness if they're coming from a Photoshop background. I've been using the pen a for nearly 10 years now and love what it can do. One quick tip to save yourself a step when you're opening the window to drop your opacity on your artwork layer there's a box for Lock that you can check rather than clicking the lock box in the Layers palette after you close that window. Keep up the great content!
This channel is absolutely perfect, how much you teach and explain so that we can learn is awesome. Thanks so much for doing this work, is truly helpful
Total beginner here. This is the second of your videos I have watched, and you really do explain things well. Great attention to detail!
For some reason I always want to expand the outlines at the end of the process, the result looks great! Have an awesome day everybody!
This is a really good video, I learned a lot here, Looking at the pen tool in a whole new way! Thank you .
Thank you @tutvid! I find this tutorial really helpful. I do know how to use the pentool in Photoshop but kinda find it hard in Illustrator. This video helped me!
Probably this must useful tutorial on the pen tool in illustrator I've found sho far. Thanks!
OMG! I am loving you right now! I have spent DAYS Trying to work out the illustrator pen! It has been beyond frustrating! 🙄 You are a great teacher! Thanks for the tutorial! ✊🙌
By far the best tutorial tool and I've been struggling with the pen tool forever, like years forever, you nailed it barely 7 min into the video.
The pen tool has been my worst nightmare and hope to conquer my fears now
Same
Thanks man, that’s helpful. I’ve been getting into the pen tool but still find doing whole drawings a bit challenging. Seeing your workflow helps
This was honestly the best tutorial I've seen for a while. It was instructive, it was enjoyable, it was perfectly clear with additional explanations etc. Subbed!
Glad to hear, Gokay Orsel! Thanks for the kind words.
Thank you for this video. I like the way you explain your thinking behind the decisions you're making. I did run into some seriously weird behaviour when trying to fill my shapes with color, but I was able to make due by using the live paint bucket tool.
My first project in Illustrator and yours is the tutorial I watched, thanks a bunch!
Fabulous tutorial - you do a great job of demonstrating the intimidating pen tool. Can't wait to try this!
Wow, really great audio and video quality. A pleasure to watch and listen. Thanks! Also, for those of us w CS6, no shaper tool like at 14:25, but you can use the shape builder tool Shift+M in mode to remove the extra shapes.
Even though I use Illustrator and the pen tool most of the time, it was still good to see this tutorial to brush up on techniques I have forgotten/haven't discovered.
Your tutorials are extremely helpful, the best I've found. Thank you so much.
This is the most comprehensive beginner pen tool video i have watched and super easy to follow. Thank you
Wow, I have gone through about pen tool in different videos and books, but this video covers ups a lot of it, thanks for making it!
I really suffered with the pen tool, thank you so much for your help
I love your tutorials man! Thank you so much! keep up the good work ;)
Hope this channel blows up in 2019
I just recently started dabbling in Illustrator a little more seriously. Your explanation of the pen tool has helped ALOT! But it also helped me to see that I was doing well in what I had figured out thus far. Thanks for the video!
You're so clear and to the point! Thank youuuuu
Thank you, clear and easy tutorial!
super super informative with lots of tips crammed in one art project!!! loved this content!!!
Really new too illustrator, The way you explain stuff is perfect mate learnt loads. thankyou!!
Your tutorials are really great......I have been struggling with the pen tool for 2-3 weeks.....thank your for the amazing tutorial 🌟
I learned a lot in this and made it much easier to understand how/why to use pen vs curvature tool. Definitely boosted my workflow! Now instead of having a million anchor points and flipping, flopping between the two - I have a better understanding of when to use each.
Also, Spidey is a great way to get your feet wet with these tools!
This is a great tutorial! I don't even use illustrator, only photoshop, but you kept me watching through the whole video :)
I learned sooo much! Thank you! I was about to give up on learing illustrator! Great job!
Very very much helpful. I have so many questions and you solved it all in this video. Thank You!

A brilliant Tutorial, my first time using illustrator. I enjoyed that lesson. Many thanks
Dude @tutvid THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!! you helped me so much with finishing my Design report :)
Thanks. You're a great teacher you explain everything in details
THIS IS THE ONLY INFORMATION I'VE EVER WANTED TO KNOW ABOUT ILLUSTRATOR EVER. WHY HAS NO ONE TOLD ME THIS IN ANY OF MY GRAPHIC DESIGN CLASSES. I'VE BEEN MESSING AROUND WITH ILLUSTRATOR ON MY OWN FOR LIKE A DECADE NOW, AND IN THAT AMOUNT OF TIME I'VE LEARNED INFORMATION EQUAL TO MAYBE A THIRD OF WHAT'S IN THIS VIDEO. I'M ONLY 17 MINUTES IN, AND I'M LEARNING A NEW KEYBOARD SHORTCUT, OR WAY TO USE THIS TOOL, OR EVEN JUST A BASIC ILLUSTRATOR FUNCTION WITH EVERY SINGLE STEP YOU'RE SHOWING. I'M ABOUT TO MAKE ALL THE DIGITAL ART I'VE EVER WANTED TO MAKE IN MY LIFE. I'M GOING NUTS OVER HERE. THANK YOU.
Thank you so much! This was incredibly helpful.
perfect! thank you
Just started using illustrator, the pen tool takes me HOURS! this tutorial means now it takes me MINUTES. thank you
