Adobe Illustrator tutorial - The Pen Tool

               

Part 3: The pen tool is a strange tool and its pretty confusing at first but once you get to know what its all about it becomes pretty easy to use. Become very familiar with this tool because without it you cant draw anything but squares or circles. The best way to practice is to trace photos or even cartoons. Practice practice practice. Some great links here that explain the pen tool in greater detail. - school.tatoland.com does a very good job in explaining the pen tool - Pretty nifty pen tool cheat sheet by Creative Techs - Adobe's help resource center drawing with the pen tool - Basic Drawing with Adobe Illustrator's Paths & Pen tool

Just saw your first three videos. Excellent! Pure meat.
Puts most of the books and online courses to shame.

I learned more from your tutorials, quickly, than six months of studying.

My advise, just keep going forward. Produce as many tutorials as you can, books, articles, anything. You seem to have a magic touch. I'd gladly pay for a full course on Ilustrator. - sincerely, Loren
