   Wow, that is great news! Funny be cause I actually work on character design for video games but only on hardcopy, on paper and I want to be able also to convert my characters in vector images with illustrator effects and so on. Your tutorials are more than welcomed. I will recommend them to other artists in my town.

   You can’t make a circle artboard. What are you trying to do?

   Select your text and then click on create outlines. Then you can manipulate the text anyway that you like. I also show you how to do tons of crazy things with text in Illustrator in Part 5 of this tutorial series. Hope that helps?

   Tutorial request:
   For instance, how can I create the word “COOL” and have the two letter O interlaced? When the lower part of the Os are joined, one is below the other, and in the upper part it’s the opposite? I hope the request is sort of clear!!

    The layer that you’re drawing on is probably locked. Does the layer with the brush tool art have a “lock” symbol to the right of the eye symbol? Click on the lock symbol there and you should be good to go

    Sorry about that. If I say Command on PCs that is CTRL and Option is ALT on Pcs. I think pretty much everything else is the same. I’ll watch out for that in the future
