Illustrating with the Pen Tool | Lighting and Shading | Illustrator on iPad

[@JackJenkins]

Extremely helpful one of the few videos that demonstrates and explains a working methodology for using the pen tool Thank you.

[@brynabryna]

This is a great video. I’d love for you to do another one explaining how to see the colors similar to how you explained how you see the shapes.

Squinting really helps you separate the values … try greyscale first and try to separate things into 2 separate values … than add more as you can see values better

I’ve used Illustrator on my laptop but just got an iPad and am trying to use AI on it. Your videos are absolutely fantastic for me. You presentation is slow enough and you explain the process so well. Keep up the great videos. You could make a great course with your teaching style.

Great video! I am new to AI and your video is very helpful. 😁

Thank you 😊 keep going, I find the program easier on this platform than on desktop

[@mariaisais]

Can you use the pencil tool for this illustration? Is it the tool of your preference?

[@AngelaDesignsThings]

You can use the pencil tool for this. I prefer the pen tool due to its precision and not needing to g go back and fix points later. Everyone has their preference, use what works best for you 😊

[@mariaisais]

Can you used the pencil tool for this illustration instead of the pen tool? Is it a tool preference? Is one easier than the other? Thanks and I enjoy your tutorial. Thank you!

[@AngelaDesignsThings]

Thank you 😊 the pen tool gives you more control but you can use the pencil tool if you prefer to draw traditional on the iPad

[@mariaisais]

@@AngelaDesignsThings Thank you for your reply. I just started using illustrator on iPad and trying to find my way around. Truly you are a good teacher. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.

[@nasiklababan1378]

great tutorial by the way, i want to buy an ipad to play adobe illustrator, what ipad do you use?

[@AngelaDesignsThings]

Thank you 😊 I use the best value iPad, 10.2 inch iPad 7th generation it’s just under $400. If you want the best one for processing speed and screen size (money not a big deal) then I suggest the iPad Pro that came out in 2019

[@terenarosa4790]

I really hate Adobe illustrator so far. I don't understand why I can't just draw it so that it's right the first time instead of moving around these points.

[@DevonChristopherAdams]

A few comments. Really love what you're doing here & just learned Illustrator mobile this summer. I wish you showed each part of the entire saucer & cup, not just some. Like the hole where you put your finger. How'd you handle that? Also, your bouncing head could be a lot smaller so I can see more of the ipad screen. That was really distracting. I like the bouncing heads rather than just audio because it makes me feel more engaged, but this was distracting and HUGE. Not trying to sounds like a jerk, so I hope I don't come off that way.

[@AngelaDesignsThings]

I appreciate the feedback and thank you 😊 I will go more in depth in future and always aim to do my best to showcase how I accomplish aspects of design and illustration.

[@nicolecarpenter7491]

I think this would be perfect however the video of your face is semi distracting and in the way at times. Probably would be much easier for you also to x that out.
