What an amazing tutorial! Thank you so much! Liked and subscribed!

[susancelebrateslife]

Great tute, took me a little while to figure out I had to change my tool menu from Basic to Advanced... just in case anyone else can't find the tools you use in the beginning

[peyton]

This was one of the best Illustrator tutorials I've ever watched! I am a self-taught graphic designer, so I've got pockets of knowledge that allow me to do what I need to do, but I've also got quite a few gaps. This tutorial goes through all of the important tools without being exhausting. It filled a TON of gaps for me in about an hour!

[jaguragaous]

I thought it was worth an hour. After spending a day pausing and watching it, this is worth a career. Will really watch again. Thank you

59:20 Instead of creating custom swatches with the lines, you could make the lines/abstract shape a pattern and select the option to size the pattern to the art. It behaves much better that way

[hostylergroup]

I strongly recommend this channel to the pros and the beginners alike.
I learned many new things today.

[MuhammadRizwan-jvzh]

This is the most helpful illustrator tutorial I could ever watch. You just made illustrator a whole lot easier for me. Thanks man, you rock.

[Elbahjaacademy]

Good tutorial!
Few notes:
58:52 (Use the pathfinder with the intersect option and you'll be left with the design you wanted in a square form)
1:00:41 Trim only the right and bottom edges so that you don't create white spaces when the shape repeats itself

At around 1:08:47, another way to round out that corner is to use the direct selection tool (A). Just select that specific anchor at the upper right, a circle with a dot in it's center will appear. Pull that circle 45 degrees downward opposite (in this case left), and it will start rounding that corner. How much roundness you want depends how far you pull the circle.

14 minutes in and this is more helpful than courses I've paid for.

[InvincibleKim]

This is honestly good. Half an hour in and I learned so much, unbelievable.

[generativepixels]

Practice and learn something are the result of success. I am a graphic designer with having 1 year experience. But when I see Your tutorials, I realize that I'm just nothing to those designs. I'm still a junior In my career. These are so amazing. Thank you so much.

[feliciaclayton]

Just discovered Dansky and I love his tutorials. I am learning so much more.

[learn.with.osamah]

This is one of the best tutorials for all stages. Thanks for your effort and offering it free.

[jspatricia]

Your tutorial is the most comprehensive one I've ever watched! You are such a great teacher! I do treasure the guidance you provide. Liked and subscribed! (Best regards from Indonesia)

[tangled]

Illustrator is probably one of the MOST useful programs in the Adobe spectrum, but I'm not sure I will ever feel like I will master it. I don't use it every day, so I struggle when I need to. Thanks to videos like this, I can get through it. Thank you.

[jingyiyuan]

This one video taught me more stuff than AI course in my collage.

[mechanicalbreaks]

Free Knowledge is priceless. Thanks for taking your time to show all this

[gi.a]

The fact that its doesnt have an ads. Thank you so much! I've learn so much😭💖

[denizgulmez]
