This is the first part to my Pen Tool tutorial. The tutorial's a final project for school, but I figured what the hey, it took me forever to figure out how to use the pen tool since I couldn't find any decent ones where I was looking (Google), so I'll make one! ^_^

This one's just the basics, and then the next one will be on how to do lineart. ^_^ I <3 the pen tool.

So enjoy! And if you find any mistakes and/or have any critiques, I highly recommend you voice your opinion. This is for a grade, you know. ;)

Ou, and the lacey things in the background are compliments of 's lace brush set. <3

I'm I had a little problem with your tutorial but I figured something out.


You should mention something in Step 3 (or possibly 2) when making the new anchor between the two lines. You should say use the Add Anchor Point tool, cause when I was using regular Pen tool, it was making a second line ontop of the original. Just to let you clear that up ^_^;;

With CS, it should automatically add a point. o_o I'll double check though. ^_^ Thanks for your input!

I checked it right after I read your comment and once I hovered the pen tool over the line, it turned into the add anchor point tool. o_o Odd.

I'll be editing it to make a note of this, so no matter. ^_^

The pen tool aggravates me. It always bends the wrong side as well when I'm trying to round out things better :3

flash animation, pencil, charcoal, photoshop colouring and vector art work aswell as some photos and sculptures to all in my new DA gallery come see!
I have a tablet as well, but the pen tool is useful for when you need a nice curved line which is quite hard to do even with a tablet.
