It's a good tutorial, but I fail at the very beginning with this...Anchorpoints or whatever....It NEVER looks like your examples...neither like a normal curve

Great tutorial, really helpful! I've got a question, if you make two shapes using the pen tool that intersect each other, when you fill the path the intersection isn't filled - do you know if there's a way to get it to fill the intersection too?

Oh this was so cool and helpful! Thanks for making this!

The art that is the hardest to post,
often says what matters most.
Open their eyes with pictures and words.
Make numb hearts feel,
and the word is yours.

I was so excited to find this tut! I haven't been able to figure out this tool on my own and the other tuts I found didn't explain enough for me, yours was perfect! Thank you for making this
