  • Learn how to create a 3D lettering in Illustrator by using the blend tool. Download Illustrator to get started: www.adobe.com/products/illust...
    1. Double-click the Pencil tool (or type “N”) to open the Pencil Tool Options. Set Fidelity to Smooth. Click OK. Draw a letter using a single stroke, or path.
    Tip: The Pencil tool is available from a list of drawing tools. Click and hold the icon of any tool with a small arrow in the lower right corner to see other available tools. If the tools aren’t visible, select Window - Tools - Default.
    Optional: Use our custom alphabet (adobe.ly/2q2NodN) to create your lettering.
    2. Choose the Ellipse tool and Shift+drag to draw a circle.
    3. With the circle still selected, click the Gradient icon below the Fill color in the Tools panel. Set Stroke to None.
    4. Open the Gradient panel (Window - Gradient). Double-click the first Gradient slider. Click the Swatches icon and choose a color. Double-click the second Gradient slider and choose a different color.
    5. Use the Selection tool to select the circle. Then, Option/Alt+drag to duplicate the circle.
    6. Choose the Blend tool and click each circle.
    7. Double-click the Blend tool, select Specified Steps from the Spacing drop down, and set the desired number of steps.
    8. Use the Selection tool to select both your letter and the blend, go to Object - Blend - Replace Spine to create the 3D effect.
    Optional: To change the direction of your blend, select Reverse spine.

    Looking closer at this tubular lettering there are very noticeable "ribs" -- how can someone smooth those out so that the tube shapes are more continuous?

    • @andressaferro
      @andressaferro 6 лет назад +6

      Just put a higher number when setting the number of steps with the Blend tool. Keep testing more and more until you find the best result for you.

    • @zakarykoenigs798
      @zakarykoenigs798 7 лет назад

      Im guessing you probably do the same thing, except with everything selected. You could also make a new font.

    • @waxmaster-c
      @waxmaster-c 6 лет назад

      The blend has to follow a path. So you would need to redraw the font with paths.

    Can i do this with an already made script font?

    • @waxmaster-c
      @waxmaster-c 6 лет назад

      No the blend has to follow a path so you have to redraw it.

    • @rhall89
      @rhall89 5 лет назад

      El Pinguino only think that I’ve found that affinity is missing that’s extremely useful is the ability to warp text like in illustrator/photoshop. When they get that, I’ll stop paying for illustrator.
