Illustrator Trick : Art Brush Lettering

[@ibotpl]

You can use the shortcut "C" to cut your strokes. And pathfinder-trim with alt-click to cut out shapes using a rectangular.

[@nobudesign]

Ok. Thanks .

[@rickyap9238]

Hi, nice tut. But let me add a quick tip: when you are creating any kind of brush, on the "Brush dialog box" you can able the option: Colorization > Method > Hue Shift. If you do this, the brush can be colorized easily, just changing the stroke color. No expand brush needed ;)

[@nobudesign]

Thank you Baimu, you're right. By using colorization we can simply change the brush color by change stroke color, but just remember this not work with gradient color.

Best trick I learned: 7:25 - 7:37 . Thanx!

[@labeedoo]

THE SAME!!

[@noxillunis]

Exactly!! Just blew my mind :)

[@MarcoValeKaz]

yeah! that was freakin clever!

[@xlordamber]

Doesn`t work for me.. the only thing that happens is that it creates some weird line shapes...

[@MarcoValeKaz]

Igor A. S. Before you make the blend, set the blend steps to 1. That should solve it

[@RachelJonesSmoothJazz]

Thanks so much for this tutorial ... I made a "G" logo using this technique and my boss LOVED it!!

[@Saanichian]

You can use the scissors tool to break a path. Accomplishes the same thing, but it's a little faster.

[@Giant_Swing]

Dude that blend trick that you used to get a path out of a letter blew me away, great video!

[@fjworkshop]

blend trick is not working.plz help.i am not getting a a perfect middle line

[@ehteshamaliii]

@@fjworkshop use specific steps and add 1, it is an average line in center so it wont work with some letters

[@Parshiwal]

@@fjworkshop I found a way around because the blend line in between S was not very smooth. So I copied one line of S (right of left, anyone can work) and pasted it. Deleted the two lines of original S. Now made a copy of that new line and reversed flipped it (you can see that one line has Bigger head and smaller bottom, or vice versa if you selected the other line). Now I adjusted them to make an S outline as original one. Then, you can apply blend option and it will make a blend. It will be very smooth middle line. Another way is to trace the outline of S and then apply blend n that new S. When we convert letter into outline etc., they behave very differently.

The music is greeeeat...wow. And you're a special designer.

[@susanpratt3290]

[@AkiraCruzRodriguez]

Excellent tutorial! 🎉🎉🎉

[@JanneWolterbeek]

I use the eraser tool for taking out bits of a path, goes much quicker.

[@gamingrankzpcgamer2063]

The Background Music is soo Cool..

[@rh5126]

Aside from the idea and the techniques, the tricks are gold too!

[@hovikabrahamian3801]

That is Great Tips and Tricks, appreciated of your wonderful artistic Creation of Artwork.

[@nobudesign]

Thank you.

[@mr.l6332]

Thanks for the tutorial! For around 1:10 where you were cutting the lines, you could also use the scissor tool ("c" key) to just do each cut in two clicks, although either way is cool! In fact they probably are just as fast I realized

[@nobudesign]

You're welcome. I think so.

[@alexjr977]

Thank you it was so easy and cool :)

[@ryovanny]

[@nobudesign]

Thanks gumbo.

[@Downfall466]

Thanks for the video! I noticed that when I followed the steps that this effect doesn't work to well with some letters. I don't know if it has to do with the font im using, Arial Bold, but it's still a neat effect that I'll definitely use for future projects!

[@dan085]

Yeah it's definitely a challenge with some letters. Still pretty great.

[@user-km4ot2hu1r]
