In this Adobe Illustrator Tutorial, I will use a Wacom Tablet to create a vector from my sketch. Please note that I no longer recommend drawing with an expanded line using the Blob Brush in Adobe Illustrator. Switch to the Paintbrush or Pencil Tool to keep your Paths "Live". If you are using our Pressure Brush Libraries, use the Paintbrush.

I would say this was the best and clearest tutorial I've ever found! All the steps are very clear! And I am quite new to all this. Thanks a lot!

@MrJamesthurston 5 лет назад

Thankyou Jason! Very clear tutorial - what an interesting way to work! I love vectors, and the pressure of the wacom pen plus the editing out of the overlaps is really making me look at my tablet in a different way. Well Done!

@FizzieBro 4 года назад

to be honest, i used to love photoshop more than illustrator - my BSL interpreter was told me that illustrator is best and better with vector, i told him it is hard for me. he said no, it was similar to photoshop. i once tried on illustrator and realise it was the best and beat to photoshop. i was so fooled to stubborn. also, this tutorial is very useful which i find it today by the way, i am deaf which use signer as well and i know my grammar isn't as good as your English.

@tomthesmol9676 4 года назад

nice Tutorial , thank you !! We're using XP-Pen Artist 15.6 Pro for our works now. It was a great transition from our old Wacom Intuos tablet without screen to Artist 15.6 Pro with a screen. Drawing tablets can be nice and handy for some people but I just could not get past the disconnect between the place I'm drawing on (Wacom tablet) and where the results are actually shown (computer screen). Tried all kinds of training exercises, suggestions from several people but in the end I simply gave up and bought a drawing monitor instead (where you draw directly on the screen, just as you would on paper or canvas).

@gabrielanavarro6512 2 года назад

Hi! I love this tutorial, I was hoping to see how did you do the shades for the Illustration (as the final result), I don't know how to add shadows that doesn't seem too "vector-ish" (I hope that mankes sense 🙈). I would appreciate the help ✨👍🏼

Any link to CC will be to the latest version. When you are in your CC Creative Cloud panel you can click on other versions to install (I would not recommend installing older versions of CC - defeats the purpose of the cloud platform)

Really cool! I have been wanting to get a tablet for some time, but they are expensive, and I am still learning. it looks like Intuos 3 is quite an old one. Maybe I could find a used one - looks like it's doing what you need it to do.

@JasonSecrest 5 лет назад

The tablet in the tutorial you can buy pretty new for under $100. I think there are newer models under $90 that are pretty similar.

@TheMisterkafka 4 года назад

Hey Jason, this is a fantastic video, thank you so much! the explanation of the blob brush and shape builder tools and how you approach digital art was really helpful for me. I’m totally new to using pens/screens (have a Cintiq 16 and pro 2 pen). I’m still not 100% on brushes. I’m using the blob brush but some brushes don’t seem to change their size at all with pressure. Do they have to be calligraphic brushes in order to do this? I think I just assumed everything would be configured out of the box. Also: if I quit out of Illustrator halfway through a project do I need to save a brush to ensure I can reuse it (say if I change the settings)? Sorry for the daft questions! I need to learn a bit more of the workflow side of things.

@JasonSecrest 4 года назад

Have you gone through the new Blob Brush video with the pressure settings?

@MarjolynNoble 5 лет назад

@@JasonSecrest thanks Jason, I have Adobe Ill cc v 23 and I find following tutorials difficult. Have things changed recently? I am so confused between Essentials and Essentials Classic. I didn't realise that i need to toggle between the two to find certain features, or am I confused?

@JasonSecrest 5 лет назад

For pretty much ever tutorial I am on Essentials Classic as a base. I almost never toggle between workspaces and I definitely never switch during a tutorial. (The location of the panel icons might move to different locations.) In the newer ones coming out I have addressed this and have reset my workspace so the icons aren't in different locations ( if you are doing any "tool hunting" click under window and it will pop up for you) This is an easy fix since the icons can be tiny in the video. You won't have to toggle workspaces unless you are really switching it up, a good example is the typography workspace. You can add more to the essentials classic workspace/panel under window - all of these can be added to the floating panel on the right hand side of the screen. (During the Tutorials) I will usually say they are under window as we use them if i don't think they are part of the base or essentials classic. (Your panel will remember and save what you add for future projects) In order for it to be saved you have to drag it and "dock" it in the panel. If it is just "floating" the workspace won't remember it for the next time you open illustrator. Let me know if that explained it. Jason

@MarjolynNoble 5 лет назад

@@JasonSecrest thank you very much. Learning Illustrator is such a mind field but one I will master, it may take me a decade but ce la vie. I need something to keep my mind active in my declining years, either this or Bridge! ;)

@ASMRLovebyT 4 года назад

Looks great. But could I use the pen tool? I know you said no... but I preffer the look of the lines that look all the same and not with variations on the dimension. Thank you!

@JasonSecrest 4 года назад

Yes you can! There is an older pen tool and shapes version of the hippo tutorial if you are looking to use the pen tool.

@toolzshed 5 лет назад

when you started on the shape builder tool clean up, do you switch to your mouse? Is the tablet only for laying down lines? thanks!

@JasonSecrest 5 лет назад

As soon it is point and click I will switch over from the tablet to the mouse. The tablet tends to drag and I don't think it as user friendly for selecting individual points.

How did you get the pressure different as you draw?

@toolzshed 5 лет назад

You should have a video feed that shows how you switch between keyboard and tablet :D

@JasonSecrest 5 лет назад

I don't have to switch. The keyboard and the tablet are right in front of me. I use my keyboard shortcuts too much to lose the keyboard. When (if) I use that kind of setup, I actually have an external USB keyboard that I can reach to maintain my keyboard shortcuts.

@MaximBijgaart 6 лет назад

One more question, how did you do the sketchy 'background' where you are inking? Do you have special pencil settings for that? It really looks like a real pencil!

@KuttyJoe 6 лет назад

If you mean the red sketch, it probably is a real pencil drawing, scanned, then imported into Illustrator. But it could also be done with a pencil in any art app, including Illustrator. Some people prefer to sketch on paper. Some are fine to sketch directly into their art apps.

@JasonSecrest 6 лет назад

I do draw in blue/red mechanical colored lead. This was done in Photoshop while editing the original sketch. I just spot color off the scanned image. Everything else is the brush settings in Photoshop.

@timjurie2769 4 года назад

Great tutorial! Which Wacom tablet are you using in this? Would the cheaper Intuos Creative series suffice or would you recommend spending the extra money on an Intuos Pro. Thanks.

@JasonSecrest 4 года назад

The one in the tutorial is an Intous 3 which is the opaque or non-display version. There is an awkward blind contour feeling if you haven't used one before. The display versions are a little easier to use from a drawing if you intend to have all of your workflow digital.

@timjurie2769 4 года назад

@GinoZump 4 года назад

hey hey question: each time I draw something with blob brush and then select it (with ctrl) and cut it out (using ctrl+x) my brush changes from a pressure sensitive to a basic one. why is that? how can I fix it? also thank for the tutorial, it was very fun to watch.

@JasonSecrest 4 года назад

It sounds like you are on the Paint Brush. Blob Brush is already expanded so it won’t change when erasing

Preview of inking with tablet somehow lags on my computer. Its a good machine, no problems with using Adobe soft, but drawing in vector just lags. Any possible solutions?

@MaximBijgaart 6 лет назад

How can I make every line a different shape? Illustrator is combining them instantly.

@JasonSecrest 6 лет назад

Go into your blob brush settings. Turn off keep selected. Keep on only merge with selection. So now you have to deliberately click on the object for the new shape to combine together.
