    Mate. Here are some tips for the pen tool: If you click and drag the first anchor point becomes a curve. If you continue and click without draging the pen you just create a straight anchor, but if you want to continue with a curve path, just hold ALT and click on that anchor and drag the cursor. Also, you are using too many anchor. Try to use less. Finally, you didnt use the anchor point tool (SHIFT C) to round the corners.

    • @millthor
      @millthor Год назад +4

      Exactly, specially on the too many anchors. There was a point when I was anxious seeing how many anchors he did, made one "ok" curve, then deleted and made a less smooth one over it.

    To all the beginners out there if there's alternative use that instead of pen tool. But if you need to use it then dont get frustrated while using pen tool. Even for Experts it takes long hours to carve out something nice using pen tool. Patience is the only tip that can save you while using pen tool.

    To isolate and use one handle for the node: 1) Select the node. 2) Hover your cursor over the node handle you want to use. Don't click the handle yet. 3) Press the 'Alt' key. You will see a small '+' sign. 4) While still holding the 'Alt' key, click on the handle and start moving it around. NOTE: If you click the handle, then hit the 'Alt' key, Illustrator will simply duplicate that part of the path.

    The trick with the pen tool is click and drag, click and drag, click and drag… if you need to have a point on one of the curves, click and drag to finish the last curve, then click back on the same point and option-drag (or alt-drag if on PC) to start a new curve in another direction.

    It's great, thanks for it. Wondering why nowhere I can find a course or bundle of course(s), with just exercises from simple to (very) complicated? Covering all tools, tricks, hacks etc. Including maybe even some of your past projects, changing/not mentioning the name of client. To have real life examples. Title example ''300; 500 or 1000 exercises which make you great/pro in Illustrator''. You practice them for months, but when done, you know you have the skill(s), due to the course's structure done with this goal. Same for Ps, Id, Pr even Ae. :(🤨

    I though I would leave this video knowing how to use better the pen tool, instead i just watched you struggle through the entire thing.
    In my mind the struggle was just a setup for a next part of the video where you show a better method of spacing the anchor points and make things in an easier way, but then the video finished with just you doing messy work like the rest of us.

    Dansky, I've seen - and loved several of your videos lately. I've even subscribed to your channel. Sadly, this was not your best; a "how to master" video that promises "no more struggling," cannot be just however many minutes of watching someone make guesses about how to cope with the thing they claim to be an expert at.
    To teach someone how to master something requires starting with a clear idea of what points need covering and a plan that covers every step of the process of covering them. It then requires at least one rehearsal to work out all the kinks beforehand, especially in a "mastering X" video, where the final product needs to make the presenter look like a competent authority on the subject.
    I'd love to see you tackle this one again, though. It's clear from your other videos that you really do know your stuff, it just really didn't come across in this case.

Second, there are too many anchor points. Smooth tool with a pen tool? Really? You didn't show an anchor point tool. In a process of transformation of a path is essential.
