Join Deke McClelland for an in-depth discussion in this video 599 Hand-drawing inline character strokes, part of Deke's Techniques.
- [Instructor] In this movie I'll show how…and why we need to hand draw the remaining…center strokes in order to complete our inline text effect.…Specifically, we'll be working on these letters…that I've colored in pink.…The reason being that the pink letters…are structurally more complicated than the green ones.…Now, let me show you what I mean.…I'll go ahead and switch over to my document…of progress, and I'll turn off the outlines later…here inside the layers panel, and I'll turn on…this layer that I've created in the background…called bad blends, and I'll start by zooming in…on the P, and notice we have these red path outlines,…and there are actually two of em surrounding…the various portions of the P,…and so I've created one that traces around…the inside edge, like so, and another that…traces around the outside edge.…
Now, that's already a fair amount of work,…but notice what happens if I blend them…by clicking on one and then shift clicking…on the other with the black arrow tool,…and next, just so I can see what I'm doing here,…
