 What's good you two addition boys she were back at y'all again with another video and today I will be showing y'all how to color on adobe illustrator and how to do a couple more things look I'm gonna show y'all my methods the methods I use when I'm feeling do some artwork on us so make sure y'all go ahead and hit that like button come in subscribe to the channel and let's jump right into it I'm always losing my pen first thing you want to do if you got a tablet if you're using one of these little things right here first thing you want to do is go ahead and set your pen pressure sensitivity any program you use you want to set that so this is how you do it on a wl show let me go back new brush click okay go to fix that the bottom pressure and you would like to move this one like to five or four it don't matter like five or four and you come over here move this to five to make both of the numbers even so if you put four over here before you put five over there put five over there and click okay and that's how this the brush I use right here little digs balls first layer you want to do is like a rough sketch and I made that like a pinkish color so then you just want to get your shapes together so don't when you sketch it I know a lot of people when they sketch and they try to make it perfect but it's it's really it's just a rough draft where you can see where you go put your lives so don't don't spend too much time like trying to oh man when it's just a when it's just like a sketch I think that's a good so what I'm gonna do is clear this arrow and scale it all down or scale it right there control z to go back step and you just keep clicking z if you want to keep going back step I say that's that's good enough now what I'm gonna do is I'm a lot that layer and I'm gonna add another layer on top of it for my line work and now we're gonna go to the color black and this is where you want to kind of take your time because you want to go back and clean up things you know so what we're gonna do is add a little detail so y'all a little trick to sense we want that same style of eye you're gonna use your your selection tool copy this and you're gonna hit you're gonna hold ctrl and hit c to copy and then you're gonna hit ctrl v to paste it again and why you still got this selected right click it go to transform and hit reflect reflect click okay saying that's that's one of my little little secrets a lot of times I like to take off take off the um the sketch just to see where I'm at I was looking without it so you do that by clicking the eye that's on the sketch that's straight now what you want to do is you want to get your selection tool highlight everything all the line work you want to get your selection tool highlight all the line work then you want to go to you want to go to object and expand appearance and click merge and that'll make all the lines that you made it'll make it all one see your layers my layers right here you want to grab the layer with the with your line work on it you want to drag it to this blank shoot a paper and that's gonna make a a copy of it okay after you made your copy you want to put a lock on the top one put a lock on the top one you want to come over here pick a color or you can just create a color that you want to use move the color to the back click this box this rectangle the rectangle tool and you want to stretch it over the artwork on your second layer and cover the whole picture then you want to click your selection tool click the box you just made make sure you got the red highlight around the box you just made with the color right click it go to arrange and send to back you got to send it to the back of the line work okay once you see it it's sent to the back you you will see your line work on top of it in the little corner in the corner box with your layers you'll see your line work on top of the color and then get off of it click off of it highlight everything again and then you want to merge it all together get off of it click off of it go back to it click it then right click it and isolate selected group and now you can choose colors individually so i'm going to choose this color and delete it i'm going to go to the eyes hold shift to click something twice to have two things highlighted another thing i like to do i like to go inside my layers double click off of it go inside my layer tool and lock the line work just watch my cursor i click this open it up the drop the drop menu and i only locked the black the black lines with the basic color now we finna add another layer to do shades you want to click a new layer and put it in between okay now utilize your layers now what you want to do is you want to lock this layer make another layer drop a tool click that same green there we go make a fancy sharing already that's what i'm talking about so we can do the eyes let's straight to go ahead and like comment subscribe if you have it and i'm gonna
