After you have the shape in 3 sections from expanding, you can simply select the group > right click > ungroup. This will cut down on your need to cut and past in place (shortcuts: ctrl+x and ctrl+f). Also when you're using the path/pen tool, you can simply hit escape on the keyboard to deselect.
Hi Dansky. Nice, well structured tutorial. But, what annoys me slightly that you are doing a lot of stuff "by eye". Maybe I am too used to CAD software. But is there a way in illustrator to make that line as a strict continuation of the original line at 4:50. And then the second line to be strictly parallel to the first line at 5:00. I tried something similar in illustrator and just simply couldn't find a way. It just amazed me that this kind of simple and obvious functionality (if you come from CAD background) of smart guides is not present in the leading vector illustration software.
Gradients in Illustrator always vexed me, until today that is. Many thanks for the tutorial, I will most definitely be using these techniques in the future!
Mind blown on using the pathfinder tool. Gah-- that wouldve saved me a ton of work with my last logo getting the white to go away. Thank you for the amazing tutorials. Ive been learning so much!!
The best tutorial ever. You're a natural! I'm a beginner in Illustrator and your tutorial suits me beautifully! Thank you very much and already following you.I'm a dentist from Brazil and my hobbies is learning illustrator!
i really don't have a word to thank you for this tutorials i give u like before watching any video becouse you are a really unique in this world thank you god bless you bro
Very lit tutorial, took a while for me because I was adding a lot of tweaks of mine to it (which did not work out too well for me) but eventually I nailed it.
I also had problem with live paint bucket tool. Make sure that the curves you create using the pen tool are properly attached to the edges by clicking on the anchor points before using the deselect option. After that you will be able to see those shapes seperated in the outline view (ctrl + Y).
Great tutorial Dansky! Good music (not too loud and not to low - Just perfect). Beside your skills, your voiceover is the best I heard on similar tutorials. Not sure who gave it a thumb down and not sure why. Again, Fantastic Tut! Your videos are very helpfulI just subscribed!
Really like your explanations of why we do certain things. I know not everyone has this feature, but I would like to see you explain the cs6 gradient editor bar. I do appreciate that you are showing us the older ways of doing gradients. Simpler is often better. I use CS6 and understand that people want to use older versions.
I jus learned bout you today in 2020, 😂but your voice made me watch the whole thing. Great tut I have learned something I have wondered how to do. Thanks man
Finally, a teacher that speaks with passion, the right tone, and speed over the steps by step instructions. Thank you so much.

@@AidarAmrekulov I think you could copy the lines of the shape and adjust them.
Yeah, one of the reasons why I fully watch his videos :)
the way you make this amazing logo is vary easy. thank you sir
If you're having an issue with the minus front part, try holding alt when you click on the minus front button in the pathfinder tools.
man..I spent like an hour trying to figure this one out ...that did the trick...thanks!
mee too! (but in this case 3 hours

Ask about paint bucket why i cannot use live paint?? really need explanation
