But tell you what, we're going to cheat a little bit on the left shoulder because it's going to be identical to the right shoulder which I've already drawn in advanced. All right so I'll go ahead and switch over to my illustration in progress and I'm going to turn of the hair layer and I'm going to turn on the outlines layer. And I'll go ahead and click on the outlines layers as well so that we can focus our attention on it. All right now I'll go ahead and zoom in on the top of the head and I will, once again, select the Pen Tool naturally. Now this time around we want to keep that black stroke and we want it to be eight points thick. But we do not want to fill. So just go ahead and click on that first swatch on the far left…
