In today's video I will be showing you guys like always how to make a cartoon head. So without further ado let's go right into the video. First thing you want to do you want to find a picture you trying to use and you just want to drag and drop it right into Adobe Illustrator. Right after you do that you want to get the picture the right size you need it. There we go, just make it down some. All you got to do is hold shift and grab the corner of it, okay that's a pretty good size. Now what you want to do? You want to drop the opacity down while you got the picture selected, it's good to know who you can see it and after you do that you want to lock that layer, create a new layer right above it, then if you're using a digital tablet you'll be able to set the pen pressure for your brush. So you want to come right here to new brush, hit okay, go to pressure, change these two bottom numbers to three, hit okay, and now what you want to do is just get a feel for your brush and that's the brush you see me use on every video. It's just a pressure brush, it's nothing special about it, you know what I'm saying, like all you got to do is press light, then if you press hard it'll give you a different texture, you know what I'm saying. So delete all these little lines, we're going to zoom in on our picture and for some reason I always start with the nostril on the nose every time I draw, go ahead draw the nose and I'm going to take these grapes out the picture, I'm going to draw his face so I'm pretty sure this line will come right up like this, then close this ear off, we got to improvise, zoom in close as you can, anytime you want to make some good clean line work you just zoom in close to the picture so you'll be able to see all the finer details on the lips, I don't really see it that good but I'm going to improvise, that's pretty much getting a basic layout of the face before we start adding the finer detail, nice little drip, my brush a little bigger, what we about to do, you need to go to your pencil tool, move this color black to the top so it'll work as a field tool and now let's do the background of the drip so they have a 3D effect, let's finish coloring in all the other black areas, now what we about to do, we about to go back to our brush tool, we about to add some finer details with the brush and sometimes what I like to do to buy time, I like to try to select some of these hairs, hold off and just drag and drop them, you know what I'm saying, just to get a nice little feeling with them, so that'll buy you a little time but still go back on top of it, just to help it out a little bit, now that we finished with the line work, what you want to do is you want to highlight everything, go to object, expand the pinch, click merge on your pathfinder, create a copy of the line work, make sure you got the second copy highlighted, I'm going to come over here, find you a nice base color to start out with, hit ok, go to your rectangle tool, drag that color over the entire picture, right click it, go to arrange, and send to back, you want to highlight it again, hit merge on your pathfinder, so the color can become one with your line work, now you want to right click, isolate select group, and we can delete this outer color, and we can change the colors that's closed off, so let's change this duerad color to purple, purple as well, hold shift to select more than one area at a time, drop a tool, change the colors, hold shift, change the color of his lips, now wait, we almost finished with the base color, let me change this iran, I'm finished with the base color, what I'm going to do, I'm going to tweak it a little bit, I'm going to highlight everything, go to edit, edit colors, and we're going to adjust color balance, tweak it just a tad, nice little color to start with, so now what I'm going to do is, we're going to make a copy of our color layer, lock that top, I mean lock the bottom copy, hit this drop down menu, and we're going to lock all our black lines, so we're going to keep the top two layers unlocked, and now what we're going to do, we're going to delete this skin tone out of that layer, let's click on to it, right click it, isolate select group, and we're going to delete the skin tone off of that layer, now that we've deleted the skin tone off that layer, what we're going to do, create us a layer in between, and now we're going to create our shadows, so I'm going to sample the skin tone and find me a dark shadow, I'm just looking at my original picture, I'm just following while I see all the shadows, and there you have it you guys, how to make a cartoon head, if you're new to the channel hit that like button, come and subscribe, make sure you stay tuned, more heat coming soon, I'm at your thing.
