    I've never been able to figure out how to *illustrate* in Illustrator until now. I've always tried to re-learn illustration by building shapes and whatnot. Thank you for finally posting a tutorial on the brush tools!

    Great video! I also like to use the Variable Width tool to change the taper of strokes - eg, make them thicker in the middle or thinner towards the end. It's a useful tool to have in your arsenal.

    I got inspiration for the 1930s style mostly because after I watched the CupHead show I was like “WOW, The animation was AMAZING!” And so every time I draw my original characters I always make in the style of the RubberHose animation or as I also like to call it the CupHead style. If you know what I mean
