DRAW WITH ME ✍️Vector Portrait | Adobe Illustrator

[@aasthamehta2382]

You fast forwarded all the important steps!!!

[@zaitoonnaz9575]

Dear You should watch beginners level "pen tool" tutorials if it was hard for you to get through those fast forwarded steps. That will help you a lot

[@yasirarfathshaikhshaikh3023]

​@@zaitoonnaz9575 abee chodu dear bolna band kar bakchodh😂

[@mariiyanikka5367]

Agree, I wanted to see, how to work with eyes and also highlights 😢 That part was very quickly to understand ((

[@ora.artwork]

ye i agree. blend mode, gaussian, highlight was skipped :((((((

[@syuedler8697]

So cool! It looks realistic to me and doesn't look like a cartoon.

[@Pininay0143]

Wow girl Just wow! It started off with, ok ok I can do this (beginner-mode) into skillz (advance mode). Major props to you!

[@AliceThorpe]

Thank you!

[@rIDEvIRAL]

After watching a lot of videos on you tube, from which i have learned nothing. I have finally landed on your video and i am glad i did. Your video helped me a lot to learn a lot of things. Thank You SOOOO Much.

[@AliceThorpe]

Great to hear!

[@jasonmcg96]

watching this makes me ashamed to call myself a graphic designer! the time and effort you put into that, with the highlights and shadows is just phenomenal. You're amazing!

[@rehambastaki5118]

That is a really really amazing work and I am going to try it

[@faizanmirza3461]

I have watched this video one year ago and after that i practiced it now i am becomes a professional portrait designer and earning thankk u alice this video is gold :)

[@AliceThorpe]

Nice work!

[@emiliakalinowska2212]

You are genius!! Love it!

[@AliceThorpe]

Thank you! 😊

[@Celti_]

This was amazing. I love the way you added dimension and depth to her facial features and hair.

[@naz-ok6dn]

You're really pro at creating shades on the face

[@nikibabayy]

That was AMAZING!!!! When I get better at AI and the pen tool I really want to try this. I HOPE I can get to your skill level someday!

[@julia100801]

What a fantastic tutorial

[@alanajean825]

I really love this. I love how u explain how to start off and stuff, i think am gonna try this out

[@sarahkeks7567]

Wow das sieht richtig cool aus. Nach meinen Prüfungen werde ich auch anfangen mich heran zu tasten Vector Portrait zu machen.

[@claudiarodriguez6189]

THE DETAILS. SO BEAUTIFUL.

[@romlyn99]

FYI - Illustrator -> effect menu -> blur -> gaussian blur... will have to check out a tutorial for that, as it looks cool

[@thonl1999]

I used that technique,but too many use of guassian blur, the Ai automatically lags and not responding.

[@ifeanyi5394]

@@thonl1999 my frustartion as well with Ai. Most of the effects (blur, drop shadow etc) lags the system. perhaps we need a more powerful system

[@가영양-j1v]

This was technique i was curious

[@kayg4204]

That was awesome and it helped me a lot. Thanks 😌

[@pjgirl5]

This was a great video and has shown me alot as I learn vector portraiture. Thank you

[@AliceThorpe]

Glad it was helpful!

[@lozzakc]

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 🤍

[@jazmeen04]

Mee too

[@hollymccombe7104]

I have been in my Graphic Design course for three months, too afraid of how to stop the pen tool from curving... all I have to do is click the box... Thank you so much! Love the video!

[@angelavarghese2730]

I’m a self taught designer as well and learning these little tips help sooo much! I’ve been struggling with Illustrator for so long but this video is inspiring me to keep practicing!

[@AliceThorpe]

I'm so glad!

[@MeganSarmardin]

Thank you so much. This is amazing. I’m new to illustrator & now I think I know enough to make a start.

[@AliceThorpe]

Glad it was helpful!

[@TonjeMarieLiczm]

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

[@AliceThorpe]

Omg amazing! I did wonder why there were so many different ways to paste 😊

[@AshThom]

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.

[@muskanaggarwal9629]

Loved this tutorial

[@hashtagfilthy]

You killed that!!

[@loomonda18]

This was so good!!!

[@laurennowicki]

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]

Great tip! I'll definitely try that next time - thank you!

[@042madheshs5]

This is like the best vector art tutorial ive ever seen!! Thanks a lot You explain things very well unlike others who just skip some parts And please make a video about skin shading.. I cant seem to understand the part about the shadows & highlights...

[@AliceThorpe]

You're very welcome! And I will add that to the list 😊

[@phrangborsyiem723]

Love it!! Looks so easy by simply watching😊😊

[@AliceThorpe]

Thank you! 😊

[@Poonam23vishwakarma]

Wow.. This video seriously helped alot

[@weronikasulej1927]

Love it! Thanks

[@cydnilisette]

This is so great! Thanks

[@pinktweedy3325]

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!

[@irines3915]

awesome! you are a great teacher and the portrait is totally stunning!

[@AliceThorpe]

Thank you so much 😀

[@WTFran20]

It looks awesome!

[@jorgepavonrojas]

Awesome! Thanks a lot for sharing!

[@AliceThorpe]

My pleasure!

[@AliceThorpe]

[@fkyt7794]

From this video I have learned a lot thanks

[@mechman3386]

This is really helpful to get me started learning vector portraits, hmm how 'bout doing a male vector portrait next?

[@jessmjfan989]

uhm theres no difference between one or the other.

[@ThugShells]

Awe you're such a pleasure to watch, thanks for the tutorial!

[@AliceThorpe]

Thanks for watching!

[@larrymoremckenzie3029]

More intense explanation about clipping masks please,shadowing was ace!

[@aayushigandhi9918]

Thanks to you I made my first portrait and it turned out to be a blast!

[@natashadye18]

Loved the video, thanks so much!!!

[@abeebatajirotutu1420]

Thanks so much Alice. This video is so detailed . I would take your videos as that which would give me inspiration.

[@jeffpalmer8152]

[@shamaramckain8664]

Wow I’ve always been to scared to try colour on adobe illustrator, but you’ve made me want to try it now ☺️

[@Rocky-hl8pm]

I love it!

[@nathannoetzold3821]

I loved it! I especially enjoyed the contouring part, because, as a beginner in Illustrator (and drawing vectors in general), it is super hard for me to notice these things. Well done!

[@supriya3209]

I learned so many things from this one video! Thankyou :)

[@AliceThorpe]

I'm so glad!

[@TheToysoja]

I loved the simplicity of your explanations.. Some speedart videos are difficult to follow but you easily combined some speedart along with your explanations and normal speed. Awesome work..you just got a new subscriber.

[@AliceThorpe]

Glad it was helpful! Welcome to my little creative family!

[@meesh3012]

Alice, you are an amazing Graphic Designer/Illustrator. Own that title! 💜💜💜

[@AliceThorpe]

Aww thank you! I’m my own biggest critic sometimes 💖

[@jacindachan7748]

Hello! Thank you for this video, it was very informative! I was wondering if you could make a more in-depth video on how you did the gradient eyebrows? Thank you so much, love your videos.

[@HermotionAnimation9]

I both enjoyed watching you drawing and listening to your British accent❤️ This video is perfect✨

[@libertysdesignlab8064]

I love how you did the tones and shades super great

[@AliceThorpe]

Thank you!

[@robertakostoska1286]

I really really like your work, it's amazing 😍 thank you for sharing this ❤️

[@romlyn99]

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.

[@GraphicKraken]

Fantastic video! This would be a great lesson on Skillshare!

[@AliceThorpe]

Maybe one day if I’m feeling brave it can be 🙊

[@rajatsagar6545]

I was so frustrated today for not being able to start with a vector portrait. But thank god I came across your video. Great work ❤️

[@AliceThorpe]

Glad I could help!

[@TylerStanczak]

You might like using the object selection tool when making cuts instead of using clipping mask so you don’t always have to cut and paste make cuts :)

[@amirmoadad7228]

i loved it! amaizing work! Thank you very useful i didn't get the part where you worked on blending light and shade to the skin and lips, it was very fast there.

[@ArmandoMedia]
