After some questions about expanding brush strokes and merging them I decided to make a more detailed video of it.

  • These tuts are Great! One question, what is a good image sizeto start with?(pixels or whatnot)

  • @hecklerjh420 regular A4 /Letter sizes will do. It Depends on what you want to do with it afterwards. But the great thing about drawing in Vectors is that you can resize without problems.

  • eyyyyyyyyy eyy uregreat!!!!!!!! awesomE!! tnhks!!!!° usave my life jaja

  • @rusheff Thanks man, ;-) always nice to hear people actually find these things helpfull.

  • This method you've shown works for me but I still have a problem with open paths in my artwork. I don't use the Merge or Unite Pathfinder options, before compounding the paths. I get the same results when using Outline Stroke and Compound Path, without Expanding Appearance, then releasing the Compound Path onto a new layer. At what stage do I need to 'close' the open paths, so that the fills don't overlap into undesired areas? Thanks again!

  • @sopling Since English is not my native tongue it's a bit hard for me to explain. But I will make a nother video on this soon and try to do this with me talking :D

see all

  • @schizo910 Thanks, i planned on using them in a comic strip. I would probably print them anyways, so nice to know. Still kinda new at this program.

  • @schizo910 I will definitely check it out when you upload it. Tthanks again for your time and making this. It was all very helpful so far.

  • Great Video, but you should speak through it and it would be brilliant!!!!! Because I cannot see what commands etc you are using!!! Thanks!!!

  • Normaly I do the sketch on a seperate layer and delete the entire layer after the inking. But In this case I just quick selectde al lines with the same colour blue and deleted those.

  • Another question, what command did you use to get rid of your 'sketch' lines at the beginning? Is that also a Pathfinder function?
