Underwater Vector Illustration | Adobe Illustrator Tutorial

[@arikasowitz]

May seem like a basic question, but how is it that when you draw shapes that bleed off the artboard, they don't even appear? My default is that the shapes are visible off the edges, and are distracting.

[@vectorslategraphicdesigntu8991]

+Ari Kasowitz I was expecting that question. Here is the trick: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mqO7l39nfZKCj6s

[@arikasowitz]

Neat! Thanks for that. Keep up the great videos!

[@vectorslategraphicdesigntu8991]

I have uploaded a new updated video for this artboard trick. Do check this out. kzbin.info/www/bejne/bqWolYCMiZxpq7c

[@timson3489]

If anybody are wondering about how he does this, I'm sure it's just A masking setup around the art board is all...

[@maychemin]

Terminé ! C'était trop bien ! Merci pour ce chouette tuto 👍👏😁

[@TheMaaikee1998]

This is so amazing. I saw the illustration of this 1,5 years ago. I just begon my education as a graphic designer. I was so amazed how it was made and decided to try and make it myself. It turned very nice and was a good exercise. Now i have found this video and it is so informative. I'm happy that i found your account. I want to do a lot of illustrations in illustrator so thanks for this account!

[@vectorslategraphicdesigntu8991]

You're welcome ☺ I'm glad you found what you have wanted. Good luck. 👍

[@GraphicDesignStudio]

nice underwater effect

[@Thegreatercheese]

10:54 Eveytime I try to do this I keep getting these tiny bright stripes down each edge of the rectangles because it looks like they're still overlapping eachother by a pixel when they should be snapped right to the edge of eachother.

[@felixpos3917]

Men! Please keep the great tutorials. Incredible illustration and care for the detail. And a very fast and clear tutorial for such a piece. Please please make others tuts with this style. Congrats

This music is so calming. Thank you for sharing, I learned so much.

[@vectorslategraphicdesigntu8991]

I tried to match the music with the scene. I'm glad you liked it :)

[@agustinmartinez8251]

NICE TUTORIAL

[@debeshsamanta7345]

How are you using color picker to change gradient slider color 0:46 sec? Whenever I try to do it selects the object I'm trying to pick color from.

[@vectorslategraphicdesigntu8991]

After clicking on one of those Gradient Handle, You will need to switch to the Eye Dropper Tool with Keyboard key "i". Then pick color with Holding "Shift". I've made a video fully dedicated to eye dropper tool. That tool does more than you think. 👉 kzbin.info/www/bejne/aHy3Z3uqgJmiebs

[@debeshsamanta7345]

Thank you so much....

[@wolflion7710]

Cool work dude, and very helpful.

[@vectorslategraphicdesigntu8991]

Thanks. I'm glad you liked. :)

[@annabeth7181]

Hi! I'm a beginner in design and I'm so glad to have found your channel. Your designs are really good. Ik it's a basic question but could you tell how you have those colours already made as swatches. are those swatches or shapes? and how do you know already which colours exactly are you going to use? Thanks!

[@vectorslategraphicdesigntu8991]

I'm glad you found what you were looking for. Those are ordinary rectangle shapes. So it helps to pick colors using Eyedropper. First I created a completed scene, then I decided which colors to use. Then I record the video for it.

[@GhaniHussnain]

hy im graphic designr

[@lamisafairooz4991]

SO COOL! Helped a lot with one of my projects! :)

[@vectorslategraphicdesigntu8991]

+Lamisa Fairooz Thanks :)

[@meamomo5389]

hi! this is so great and i have a question, i’m a real beginner when it comes to ai and i’ve come to a stump with 2:09 ! how did you transform the shape like that? my direct selection tool doesn’t seem to do that to shapes!

[@vectorslategraphicdesigntu8991]

Select that path & Add Point using the Pen Tool.

[@munerere]

Thx for the video

[@farahbakir2970]

I have decided to follow this tutorial and everything has been going smoothly but when I get to making a clipping mask of the rays and water, the rays do not appear :c I'm pretty sure I have done something wrong with the rays but I can't figure out what it is

[@shinetian1267]

wow! so so so cool!

[@vectorslategraphicdesigntu8991]

[@vectorslategraphicdesigntu8991]

+Rishabh Thank you :)

[@carinetn]

How come the rectangle always turns into a solid color no matter how many times I try to follow the steps from 0:43?

[@vectorslategraphicdesigntu8991]

Hold *Shift* while picking color.

[@fizzy879]

Hello! I found your tutorial very useful since I am a beginner! unfortunately I can't make a pass at 11.14 minutes where you select everything. I can't, I don't select every rectangle with anchor points etc. could you tell me how to do it? I have tried everything, with CRT, ALT,. Thanks!

[@amirhassan6549]

[@vectorslategraphicdesigntu8991]

+Michelle Chang Script download Link is in the description above. Installation instructions attached with it. Use Any unzipping tool to extract it.

[@taipei79]

[@vectorslategraphicdesigntu8991]

+Michelle Chang You're always welcome :)

[@ejl8412]

Amazing! I'm stunned! One thing. It doesnt really make sense to have rays coming from the top of the sky, when the sun is almost down lol

[@vectorslategraphicdesigntu8991]

yes but I thought of ice bergs while making it 😁

[@nhibinh6773]

thank you so much!

Hey what is this music called it’s great

[@stanpersoons]

wow butifle if i make this and i make a little changes can i use it for in my game ?

[@vectorslategraphicdesigntu8991]

Thank you. The original design is the property of DaveChenell. I've just shown you the method. So If you make *enough changes* that won't make it look like a copy then you can go for it. We all need a little spark of inspiration. there is nothing wrong with that. Good Luck :)

[@stanpersoons]

Vector Slate | Graphic Design Tutorials i try to contact him but hy dont anser what do i need to do

[@vectorslategraphicdesigntu8991]

Try Mail or Twitter. If that don't work then there is no other way!

[@elementpark111]

很漂亮~我一直也想学这个效果~but why i can not find the script>opacity R sort of thing ,in my AI?

[@vectorslategraphicdesigntu8991]

Thank you :) Opacity Randomizer & Fill-Stroke Color Randomizer are the Scripts I made. You can get those scripts from *Description above*.

[@amyngo3776]

i cant mask the whale :( i double clicked the white part of the whale but it goes into isolation mode and i cant select the 3 blue transparencies, but in the video it doesnt look like it goes to isolation mode. can anyone help?

[@vectorslategraphicdesigntu8991]

+Amy Ngo I can help you with this. You don't need to double click anything. After Creating White Shape and 3 other Transparent Shapes, You Duplicate White Shape in Front of All (Ctrl C & Paste in Front - Ctrl F), Select all The Whale Parts, Right Click - Create Clipping Mask (Ctrl 7). Done. If clipping Mask is not your preference, You can use Shape Builder tool to Trim Out exceeded 3 transparent parts. Now try these steps & let me know. All the Best

[@itsramses567]

THATS WHAT I NEED thank you so mucch ::((( and for amy ngo thanks for asked him like that ;)

[@itsramses567]

I cant make the whale for 1 hour. I always repeat when the part u made it

[@noahbraun7901]

When I'm trying to use the eye dropper tool to add a color to a gradient, it changes the whole shape's fill instead of just the one gradient slider. How do I fix this!! :(

[@vectorslategraphicdesigntu8991]

Hold Shift while picking.

[@rarak2931]

do you use adobe illustrator cc 2019 or 2017?

[@vectorslategraphicdesigntu8991]

this video is done with CC 2015 at that time.

[@ЛизаБортникова-ж2б]

It's really a good tutorial, but how to clip mask water rays with water shape? I try to understand this moment, but I can't.

[@mateusoliveira2776]

What song is this? So peacefull

[@sarahkay8375]

ur a wizard

[@pashko-k6h]

the clipping mask part is complicated

[@marcelobaus]

Where are those rays from if the sun is down?

[@adrianbonagua9736]

How did you do that even if you draw outside the artboard nothing will appear?

Not work shape builder with clip mask obj like kzbin.info/www/bejne/ipe5iYWrZs5-d6c. Any ideas?

[@vectorslategraphicdesigntu8991]

+Дима Насвит Yes. Shape Builder Tool doesn't work with "Clip Masked Shape". But It does work with "other shapes" INSIDE "clip group". You are probably selecting WHOLE Clip Group. Which doesn't work. So I selected whale's fin-shadow and White Whale-Shape. And trimmed out fin shadow with Shape Builder tool.

[@gerkgerk-px8nl]

Thank you very much.

[@vectorslategraphicdesigntu8991]
