I am subscribing and praying you posted Live Paint and everything about Illustrator that is tricky. You have a beautiful relaxing voice & pacing of speech; what a gift you have. (You sound like the airline pilots when its time to land. Relaxing! You could have made a living as a radio show host w/your own show,...super soothing voice. I NEED to learn illustrator, but will be watching your videos to RELAX. You're obviously a digital illustrator who is very comfortable with Ai & cares enough to cover the stuff with thought & preparation to not confuse students one little bit...this is a true rarity. The quality of my graphic design projects are of the utmost importance to me & you just rescued one single-handedly. Thank you for caring as much as you do through preparation, thoroughness, and presentation that is w/o obstacles (loud music, unclear/unannounced pulling of tools, quick-pacing of a pro, etc). I give you a 10/10...not easy;I taught computer classes, am a dedicated straight-A student my whole life so I am critical of education lessons when they are so talented at confusing motivated me. Bravo! Bravo Nikolai!
@natikier, Oh my gosh, I'm blushing and tearing up over here. Thank you for all of the kind words, this made my week! ❤️ Thank you for the compliments on my voice and style. I do have a bit of background in acting and voice over. I'm glad you find the vids so relaxing! 😂Please message me with any requests for what you would like to see on the channel! I've not been posting new stuff, but really want to get back to it over the coming winter break. Thanks again.
@@nlokteff Yes, please do! You present the information in an easy to understand and engaging way. I've revisited your tutorial today and followed along. I must say that the results are remarkable! Just trying now how to figure out how to render the end parts. I wonder if you would have other gradient mesh tutorials that would delve into making more complex images, like faces and cars. Thanks!
Great video! You explained all the problems I faced and solutions for them: working with mesh as with a rectangle and removing hidden points by anchor tool. Thank you a lot!
Thank you, this is something I've looking for forever .... finally I know how things work with gradient mesh and I think I can utilize it in a better way. I used to keep away from this tool because for me it looks messy and unexpected. Thanks a lot.
very nice tutorial!!! your way of teaching reminds me of my favorite college classes :,) I've been using After Effects/Illustrator/Photoshop for nearly a decade now and was searching for a specific thing but ended up watching all the way through 🙏
