  • Thanks Dan, I work as a nurse and your channel helped my POD business a lot, you can't imagine how much pride abd joy, I feel when someone buys my art.
  • Mate. Here are some tips for the pen tool: If you click and drag the first anchor point becomes a curve. If you continue and click without draging the pen you just create a straight anchor, but if you want to continue with a curve path, just hold ALT and click on that anchor and drag the cursor. Also, you are using too many anchor. Try to use less. Finally, you didnt use the anchor point tool (SHIFT C) to round the corners.

    To all the beginners out there if there's alternative use that instead of pen tool. But if you need to use it then dont get frustrated while using pen tool. Even for Experts it takes long hours to carve out something nice using pen tool. Patience is the only tip that can save you while using pen tool.

    I used to hate the pen tool. Now I can't live without it
  • Easily the most hilarious thing I've seen all day! I still suck at using the pen but I've now had laughter today, which is the next best thing! 😂

    I'm learning Illustrator ... and, of course, the Pen Tool. I've finally got to the point where I'm beginning to not be so intimidated by it so, naturally, I'm practicing with it more. This is great. Thank you, Dansky!
  • I've been finding a way to smooth out curve you teaches me best thanks alot ❤

    The pen tool is a big nightmare in Illustrator and it needs a huge amount of practice, thanks a lot Dansky, for making it much easier to cover from the basics to advance. And yes, that crazy banana example was really helpful ha ha ha
