    For the "copy and paste in place" it's easier to use (and remember) paste in front (F) or paste in back (B). The paste in place one is meant more for pasting in another artboard x

      Not sure if anyone mentioned this already, but the shape builder tool is really helpful to cut away excess shapes opposed to building so many clipping masks.

    I always put off creative things with the thought they won’t be good enough so end up creating nothing and then feel bad that I haven’t made anything and you’re dead right, you just need to start and stop the worrying, thanks Alice, sometimes you need someone to just say it out loud for it to click! Great Video 🤍

  • @dain_pom

    A character artist says the shape takes account of 60%~70% of visual arts and the remainder is about adding detail. Seeing how the portrait is drawn in this demo and how I drew many portraits, I think when it comes to realistic portrait drawing, the detail is just as important as the shape. For instance, the highlights and shadows around the eyes and cheeks and the way the shape of the nose is expressed by shades can completely change the impression.

  • @laurennowicki
    @laurennowicki 4 роки тому +3

    Love the Gaussian blur trick!! Looks so good! Something I do when I make my vector images that may be a bit easier is use the shape builder tool and hold down alt to delete anything I don’t want hanging off when adding shadows or hair bits instead of doing the clipping mask

    • @AliceThorpe

    @pinktweedy3325 3 роки тому

    I've been trying to learn vector drawing but finding it very difficult to understand and apply the learning from the kind of dry tutorial that just explains the tools. Learning from a proper demonstration like this is the best way to make sense of it and see what can be done. I had just about given up hope that I could get the hang of it, but you make it look easy, Alice, so thanks for the demo. It looks great!

    With the lashes... When you pump up the size you got little sharp bits sticking out. So I think you converted the line to a shape then used the erase tool to remove those sharp bits.
