I would like to give you a detailed analysis on how to make your shoelaces.
Tutorial sharing:
First draw a circle, not a positive circle .........
Then use the distort in the filter, (ai8 does not exist, 7 and 9 have ...) The upper and lower points on the exchange side, as shown in the figure... Isn't it like a 8, but it fell down ...... Far away. OK! OK!
Next, make it unfilled, the stroke is about 60% black, then copy it, and paste it to the front (edit -- copy, edit -- paste in front or ctrl + c and then ctrl + f), then the selected object is the one you just pasted on, give it the PT value of the stroke, and then fill the stroke with the white color, as shown in the figure
Then, select the two, use blend -- make in the object, and then select blend -- option. In the displayed dialog box, select specified steps and give it the value in step 1. Click OK, the effect is shown in the figure (how is there a stereoscopy. What! If you do not select to plot the number of steps, can you? It's a smooth color, usually around 256 steps! Your video card is good, the memory is large, not afraid !? Server you .)
Then, use the rotation tool to rotate 90 degrees and press the alt key (copy). The effect is shown in the figure,
Then draw a path (shoes take the lead) in the same color, but it must be in the round header form. (if the strok panel is not, double-click the stork label, until it pops up the option), and then make the shoelaces, copy the image, and finally modify it ...... (You can use the adjust color in corol in the filter to adjust the color to a satisfactory effect. Remember to select convert and preview !)
Let's look at the figure below and guess how it works?
All right, the above information is the full content of the detailed shoelaces creation tutorial for the users of this software of Illustrator. You can see the users here, I believe that you have clearly understood the production method here, so you can draw your own shoelaces according to the small series tutorial.
