  • In today's Adobe Illustrator tutorial we're going to look at creating a stylish single weight line art logo. Even though the entire design is made just using lines, there's a range of Illustrator tools and techniques we'll use throughout this tutorial that you can incorporate into your arsenal. This style of illustration is pretty popular with badge style logo designs, particularly those with an outdoors theme with landscape scenes, so that's the type of design I'll be making in this guide. It features a simplistic mountain range with trees, clouds and snow capped peaks, along with stylised linework to represent water and sun rays.

    Can't thank you enough, I've been searching for a video like this for at least 2 years now, the few I found are not even close of being as complete and detailed as yours, they just explain how to design using this style of illustration rather than explaining the technique as you masterfully did. Thank you very much.

  • @judyli6912
    @judyli6912 6 лет назад

    Excellent tutorial with useful but easy techniques that can be applied to almost every design project on illustrator that just uses lines! I followed everything, but I'm stuck on the last bit (the sun rays). I am not wielding the same results as you for the sun rays and I really don't know why? My sun rays don't flare out for a start and instead flare inwards making a shape that I don't want...can anyone help? My blend options are same as yours so I don't understand. :/ :s

Please select two or more overlapping paths'. I did make sure that I have two overlapping clouds with the half circle. Can anyone help?

    I created a logo based on this tutorial and the non profit I work for wants to use my logo design for tshirts to sell to campers and parents. Would this be a breach of any legal issue with you? I believe my is different than yours and created by myself. I just really want to check in with you and not step on any toes
    Thanks and its a amazing tutorial and love your others

    • @calestelken4645
      @calestelken4645 7 лет назад

      Unfortunately, I don't think it would be nearly as easy to replicate with Gimp. Illustrator is designed to work with vector art, while Gimp is essentially a free, inferior version of Photoshop, a raster art software. Plus, Gimp is not likely to be used by someone with access to Adobe software and sponsored by Squarespace. I'm not saying it's impossible, but it would be tough and rely on vastly different tools.

    at 8:30, when I go to the shape builder tool, none of the sun rays are red and I cannot remove them... anybody knows why that could be?

    • @KidLogicLTD
      @KidLogicLTD 7 лет назад +1

      Are you holding down alt? Doing that gives you the option to subtract the path while using the shape builder tool. The "red" is just him hovering over the the paths while holding down the alt key.
