I've seen this video several times. Even back when it was first published. I stopped using Illustrator during Covid times and relearning and updating. It should be viewed by anyone who starts Illustrator. It is a wonderful example of workflow. It seems boring to Von, but every shape he makes he provides tons of tips on how to make the shape perfect, rotation, pathfinder, shortcuts, etc. By the end of this video if you dont' know pathfinder or making shapes you weren't' paying attention. A lot of this is in his books, but still watching being done is important.

Course details
Von Glitschka is known for his witty, colorful illustrations, logos, and design work. But how do his drawings make it from refined sketches to polished pieces? This installment of Artist at Work enables you to follow along with Von's coloring and shading process, as he transforms this vector-based graphic in Adobe Illustrator. He starts with a scanned sketch and builds out the basic vector shapes. He then adds shading, highlights, and color—the finishing details that make his illustrations so extraordinary. Von's methods are simple to follow and will help create a new level of depth and richness in your own vector creations.
