Join Deke McClelland for an in-depth discussion in this video 523 Shading your authentic Möbius strip with gradients, part of Deke's Techniques.
- Hey gang, this is Deet McClellan,…welcome to Deet's Techniques.…This week we're gonna take that Mobius strip…that we drew and then colored in last week,…and we're gonna give it a sense of depth…and dimension so it looks like a real shiny ribbon,…using a handful of overlay gradients inside…of Adobe Illustrator, and in all,…we need a total of four gradient fills per overlapping…path, yes we need every single one of them,…here, let me show you exactly how it works.…Alright here's the final authentic Mobius strip,…just so you can bask in its onscreen luster,…I'll go and switch over to the document from…last week, and the first thing we wanna do…is make a copy of the Mobius layer, here inside…the Layers panel, by clicking on the Flyout menu icon…and choosing Duplicate Mobius, then I'll turn off…the original, just so I don't harm it,…and I'll double-click on an empty portion…of the duplicate, and I'll rename this guy…"gradience", and I'll change the color to,…let's say violet, and I'll click OK.…
Alright, now you wanna click anywhere on this…
