Man this is a long tutorial, instead of explaining and then when show explaining, when not just say the content of tutorial and then begin show+explain, much easier and quicker.. This you repeat for like 2-3 times and kind of boring.. but good tutorial thought. keep it up.

@IKmatli2010
Adobe illustrator CS5 obviously 😛 newest is best!
@bloodshot16 because he is tracing it.
i can’t help picture george bush doing this tutorial because of your voice lol…great tut though 🙂
I think it’s great that this it’s extensive. Can’t say how hard it was for me, since I was 100% familiar with the Photoshop Pen tool, so it was about adapting, not the actual knowlage. But this is great, it’s quite useful for me when people ask me “how can I handle the pentool in AI?” it’s great, it totally teaches people what they need to know (and makes my life easier) sooo big THANKS
hey guys which is the best version of adobe illustrator plz tell me
