<p class="intro">Halloween is almost here, and I&#8217;m sure some of you need to do some last minute graphics for a client project or maybe so graphics for your Halloween party. So in this intermediate tutorial you will learn how to create a zombie illustration with a pen tablet from a photo. Have fun utilizing the Blob Brush and Eraser tool in recreating this tutorial or apply these techniques to other ghoulish illustrations!</p>
<p><span id="more-2793"></span></p>
<h3 class="step">Final Image</h3>
<p>Below is the final zombie illustration we will be working towards.</p>
<p><img class="new_post_img" title="Final Zombie Illustration" src="http://vectips.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/zombie_final.jpg" alt="Final Zombie Illustration" width="600" height="761" /></p>
<h3 class="step">Tutorial Details</h3>
<ul class="tut_list">
<li class="item"><strong>Program</strong> : Adobe Illustrator CS4 (This tutorial use the Blob Brush, a tool specific to CS4. If you have an earlier version of Illustrator, refer to the Alternate Tutorial Methods step at the end of this post.)</li>
<li class="item"><strong>Hardware Needed</strong>: Pen Tablet (I used a Wacom Intous4 for the tutorial. If you don&#8217;t have a pen tablet, refer to the Alternate Tutorial Methods step at the end of the tutorial for other methods for creating the tutorial.)</li>
<li class="item"><strong>Difficulty</strong>: Intermediate</li>
<li class="item"><strong>Estimated Completion Time</strong>: 1 hour – 1.5 hours</li>
</ul>
<h3 class="step">Step 1</h3>
<p>First, you need to find a scary or angry portrait to trace. I purchased a<a href="http://www.istockphoto.com/stock-photo-9758647-man-displaying-a-fit-of-rage.php"> image from iStockphoto.com</a>. You can do the same or take a picture of yourself. The resolution of the image is not hugely important, just make sure you can make out some of the face details in the portrait.</p>
<p><img class="new_post_img" title="Step 1" src="http://vectips.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/zombie_01.jpg" alt="Step 1" width="600" height="481" /></p>
<h3 class="step">Step 2</h3>
<p>Create a new document in Illustrator, go File &gt; Place, navigate to the folder with your image, and click the Place button.</p>
<p><img class="new_post_img" title="Step 2" src="http://vectips.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/zombie_02.jpg" alt="Step 2" width="600" height="491" /></p>
<h3 class="step">Step 3</h3>
<p>Once placed, use the Selection tool (V) and scale the image to your desired size. From the Layers panel, click the Lock icon on the placed image layer. To keep better organization of the layers, double-click on the image layer and rename it to &#8220;Image Template&#8221;.  Next, press the Create New Layer button and rename it to &#8220;Outline&#8221;. We are going to do most of our tracing in the &#8220;Outline&#8221; layer.</p>
<p><img class="new_post_img" title="Step 3" src="http://vectips.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/zombie_03.jpg" alt="Step 3" width="600" height="2247" /></p>
<h3 class="step">Step 4</h3>
<p>For tracing the image. We are going to use the Blob Brush (Shift + B). This is a new tool in Illustrator CS4, but if you have a version below, you can still use a Calligraphy brush (Refer to the Alternate Tutorial Methods step at the bottom of the post). The Blob Brush (Shift +B) settings are set using a pen tablet&#8217;s pressure sensitivity. For this tutorial, I am using a Intuos4 Medium sized tablet. If you don&#8217;t have a pen tablet refer to the same Optional Methods step as noted previously.</p>
<p>To set up the Blob Brush (Shift + B) to use the pressure sensitivity of you pen tablet, double-click on the Blob Brush (Shift + B) in the Tools panel to open the Blob Brush Tool Options. In the dialog, uncheck Keep Selected, check Selection Limits Merge, Change your Fidelity to 2, Smoothness to 0, Brush Size to 5 pt, select Pressure from the Size drop-down menu, Variation to 5 pt, Angle to 0, and Roundness to 100%. These Blob Brush settings will create a stroke that can be varied by the pressure of the pen tablet.</p>
<p><img class="new_post_img" title="Step 4" src="http://vectips.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/zombie_04.jpg" alt="Step 4" width="600" height="595" /></p>
<h3 class="step">Step 5</h3>
<p>Now that we have our Blob Brush (Shift + B) settings, we can start tracing the image. In the &#8220;Outline&#8221; layer, start tracing the predominate lines in the image. When tracing with the Blob Brush, vary the thickness of the stroke by applying less presses for thin parts of the stroke and more pressure for the thick parts of the stroke.</p>
<p><img class="new_post_img" title="Step 5" src="http://vectips.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/zombie_05.jpg" alt="Step 5" width="600" height="507" /></p>
<h3 class="step">Step 6</h3>
<p>When tracing the image I keep the Eraser Tool (Shift + E) handy for erasing mistakes and subtracting from the traced elements. You can set up the Eraser tool (Shift + E) to work like a subtractive Blob Brush (Shift + B). To set the Eraser tool (Shift + E) up, double click on it in the Tools panel. In the Eraser Tool Options dialog change the Angle to 0, the Roundness to 100%, the Diameter to 5 pt, select Pressure from the Diameter drop-down menu, and change the Variation to 5 pt. Now you can use the Eraser Tool (Shift + E) just like the Blob Brush (Shift + B) to correct mistakes and subtract from your tracing stokes. For example, I used the Eraser Tool (Shift + E) to subtract a highlight from the eye.</p>
<p><img class="new_post_img" title="Step 6" src="http://vectips.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/zombie_06.jpg" alt="Step 6" width="600" height="816" /></p>
<h3 class="step">Step 7</h3>
<p>Continue tracing and erasing the predominate lines in the image with the Blob Brush (Shift + B) and Eraser tool (Shift + E) until you have traced them all. You can exclude lines as you feel is necessary. For example, in the image I chose, I&#8217;m not tracing the beard on the man&#8217;s face. You can also toggle the visibility of the &#8220;Image Template&#8221; layer to see how the outline is going by pressing the Visibility icon of the &#8220;Image Template&#8221; layer from the Layers panel.</p>
<p><img class="new_post_img" title="Step 7" src="http://vectips.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/zombie_07.jpg" alt="Step 7" width="600" height="1200" /></p>
<h3 class="step">Step 8</h3>
<p>Now that we have the predominate lines, go through and add extra lines around the current ones, embellishing the features like eye sockets, cheek bones, mouth, and so on.</p>
<p><img class="new_post_img" title="Step 8" src="http://vectips.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/zombie_08.jpg" alt="Step 8" width="600" height="616" /></p>
<h3 class="step">Step 9</h3>
<p>Our zombie is starting to look pretty grisly, but let add some more horror with the Blob Brush (Shift + B) to the teeth and around the face. Add extra strokes to the teeth to make them look old and worn. Also, add more strokes around the face where the skin has ripped off. You can even use the Eraser tool (Shift + E) and erase sections of the head and ears where the skin has ripped off.</p>
<p><img class="new_post_img" title="Step 9" src="http://vectips.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/zombie_09.jpg" alt="Step 9" width="600" height="2116" /></p>
<h3 class="step">Step 10</h3>
<p>Now that the outline is done, we can add some color. First, create a light green grey color from your Color panel and save it as a swatch in the Swatch panel. Next, select all the outlines and choose the Live Paint Bucket (K) tool from the Tools panel. Hover over the area you want to fill with the Live Paint Bucket (K), cycle through your swatches with the arrow keys until you find you light green color, and click to fill the area. Illustrator will then convert the strokes to a Live Paint Group. Continue filling in the area with the Live Paint Bucket until you have filled in the zombie. You might notice that it is hard to get every little area, but don&#8217;t worry, we will fill these areas in the next steps.</p>
<p><img class="new_post_img" title="Step 10" src="http://vectips.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/zombie_10.jpg" alt="Step 10" width="600" height="1482" /></p>
<h3 class="step">Step 11</h3>
<p>Select the Live Paint group and go Object &gt; Live Paint &gt; Expand. With the Magic Wand tool (Y) select only the green color. Once selected, Cut (Command + X) the green objects. In the Layers panel, create a new layer, label it &#8220;Color&#8221;, drag the layer below the &#8220;Outlines&#8221; layer, and Paste in Front (Command + F) the green colored shapes.</p>
<p><img class="new_post_img" title="Step 11" src="http://vectips.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/zombie_11.jpg" alt="Step 11" width="600" height="1737" /></p>
<h3 class="step">Step 12</h3>
<p>In the new &#8220;Color&#8221; layer, use the Blob Brush (Shift +B) to add shadows with a green grey color darker than your first green color.</p>
<p><img class="new_post_img" title="Step 12" src="http://vectips.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/zombie_12.jpg" alt="Step 12" width="600" height="1017" /></p>
<h3 class="step">Step 13</h3>
<p>Use the Blob Brush (Shift + B) to create white highlights around the zombie&#8217;s face.</p>
<p><img class="new_post_img" title="Step 13" src="http://vectips.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/zombie_13.jpg" alt="Step 13" width="600" height="1051" /></p>
<h3 class="step">Step 14</h3>
<p>Now we can start adding some other color to the teeth and exposed skull areas. Use varying shades of a dingy yellow color to color these shapes, and like the last couple of steps, use the Blob Brush (Shift + B).</p>
<p><img class="new_post_img" title="Step 14" src="http://vectips.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/zombie_14.jpg" alt="Step 14" width="600" height="1533" /></p>
<h3 class="step">Step 15</h3>
<p>Add some more color to the illustration in the eyes and add some blood around the illustration.</p>
<p><img class="new_post_img" title="Step 15" src="http://vectips.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/zombie_15.jpg" alt="Step 15" width="600" height="1517" /></p>
<h3 class="step">Step 16</h3>
<p>Create a new layer from the Layers panel, name it &#8220;Background&#8221;, drag it below the &#8220;Color&#8221; layer, and create a grey filled rectangle with the Rectangle tool (M) filling the artboard. Next, with the Blob Brush (Shift + B) create some light grey highlights on the top of the shirt.</p>
<p><img class="new_post_img" title="Step 16" src="http://vectips.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/zombie_16.jpg" alt="Step 16" width="600" height="1922" /></p>
<h3 class="step">Step 17</h3>
<p>To add a little extra fun, place some type over the shirt. I used the font <a href="http://www.dafont.com/feast-of-flesh-bb.font">Feast of Flesh from Dafont</a> and filled it with the same zombie green color in the face. Also, I shifted all the elements, except the background color, up. All done! Hope you have fun with this grisly zombie!</p>
<p><img class="new_post_img" title="Step 17" src="http://vectips.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/zombie_17.jpg" alt="Step 17" width="600" height="639" /></p>
<h3 class="step">Final Image</h3>
<p>Again below is zombie illustration all done.</p>
<p><img class="new_post_img" title="Final Zombie Illustration" src="http://vectips.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/zombie_final.jpg" alt="Final Zombie Illustration" width="600" height="761" /></p>
<h3 class="step">Alternate Tutorial Methods</h3>
<h4>Calligraphic Brush</h4>
<p>If you don&#8217;t have CS4 yet but you do have a pen tablet you can use a Calligraphic brush instead of a Blob Brush (Shift +B) for the outlines of the zombie. If you have CS3 you can use the Live Paint technique or you can just create shapes of color with the Pen tool (P), Pencil tool (N), or another tool of your choice. To set up a Calligraphic brush with the same settings as the Blob Brush settings in this tutorials, click the New Brush Icon in the Brush panel. When the New Brush dialog opens, choose New Calligraphic Brush. In the Calligraphic Brush Options, change the Angle to 0, the Roundness to 100%, the Diameter to 5 pt, select Pressure from the Size drop-down menu, and change the Variation to 5 pt. Now you can outline the image with the same pressure sensitivity as the Blob Brush.</p>
<p><img class="new_post_img" title="Calligraphic Brush" src="http://vectips.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/zombie_ad1.jpg" alt="Calligraphic Brush" width="600" height="741" /></p>
<h4>Art Brushes</h4>
<p>If you don&#8217;t have a pen tablet, you can always use an Art brush for the outline instead of the Blob Brush (Shift +B) . Art brushes are still very versatile, but they will not use you pen tablets pressure sensitivity. Still, you can find a brush that has similar tapered lines. This technique is similar to the tutorial I wrote for Vectortuts called <a href="http://vector.tutsplus.com/tutorials/illustration/illustrate-a-grunge-style-talking-skull-in-vector/">Illustrate a Grunge Style Talking Skull in Vector</a>, so check it out to learn more. My previous article <a href="http://vectips.com/tutorials/create-sketchy-style-vectors/">Create Sketchy-Style Vectors</a> will help if finding and creating Art brushes.</p>

<p class="intro">Well, it&#8217;s <a href="http://www.blogactionday.org/">Blog Action Day 2009</a> today and the topic is Climate Change. So I decided to create a fun sun character tutorial. This intermediate tutorial is great for logos, children illustrations, and other projects relating to climate change. Moreover, you can easily apply this tutorial to other illustrations, logos, and projects!</p>

<h3 class="step">Blog Action Day Day 2009: Climate Change</h3>
<p>Climate change is an important issue that affects everyone on this planet. If you are reading this, you are probably a designer, illustrator, or involved in these industries in some way. Being part of these industries, we have a unique responsibility to visually communicate issues such as climate change. That makes it fun an easy to spread the word about climate change through artwork like in this tutorial. Even if you are not part of the design industry, you can learn more about climate change form the <a href="http://www.blogactionday.org/">Blog Action Day site</a>.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.blogactionday.org/"><img class="new_post_img" title="Blog Action Day 2009: Climate Change" src="http://vectips.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/bad.jpg" alt="Blog Action Day 2009: Climate Change" width="600" height="75" /></a></p>
<h3 class="step">Final Image</h3>
<p>Below is the final illustration we will be working towards.</p>
<p><img class="new_post_img" title="Final Image" src="http://vectips.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/gw_final.jpg" alt="Final Image" width="600" height="570" /></p>
<h3 class="step">Tutorial Details</h3>
<ul class="tut_list">
<li class="item">Program : Adobe Illustrator CS4 (tutorial can be completed with other version of Illustrator)</li>
<li class="item">Difficulty: Intermediate</li>
<li class="item">Estimated Completion Time: 30 minutes &#8211; 1 hour</li>
</ul>
<h3 class="step">Step 1</h3>
<p>Create a new document and with the Ellipse tool (L), create an ellipse.</p>
<p><img class="new_post_img" title="Step 1" src="http://vectips.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/gw_01.jpg" alt="Step 1" width="600" height="424" /></p>
<h3 class="step">Step 2</h3>
<p>Fill the ellipse with a radial gradient from the Gradient panel. In the Gradient panel, change the first color stop in the gradient to a light orange color and change the second color stop to a orange color. Next, from the Gradient panel, select your first light orange color stop and change the Location to 43. Select the Middlepoint on the Gradient Slider and change the location to 60. With the Gradient tool (G) move the center of the gradient slightly up and to the right.</p>
<p><img class="new_post_img" title="Step 2" src="http://vectips.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/gw_02.jpg" alt="Step 2" width="600" height="2147" /></p>
<h3 class="step">Step 3</h3>
<p>Create a new ellipse and fill it with a radial gradient. Make the first color stop in the gradient white and the second color stop a light gray color. Change the location of the gradient&#8217;s Middlepoint to 87.</p>
<p><img class="new_post_img" title="Step 3" src="http://vectips.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/gw_03.jpg" alt="Step 3" width="600" height="1231" /></p>
<h3 class="step">Step 4</h3>
<p>Create a new smaller ellipse in the center and to the right of the previous ellipse. Fill the ellipse with a radial gradient with the first color stop a light cyan color and the second color stop a dark cyan color. Change the location of the gradient&#8217;s Middlepoint to 87.</p>
<p><img class="new_post_img" title="Step 4" src="http://vectips.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/gw_04.jpg" alt="Step 4" width="600" height="1217" /></p>
<h3 class="step">Step 5</h3>
<p>Create another ellipse in the center of the previous ellipse and fill it with black. Next, create two other smaller white ellipses and place them over the black ellipse. Now we have an eye!</p>
<p><img class="new_post_img" title="Step 5" src="http://vectips.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/gw_05.jpg" alt="Step 5" width="600" height="877" /></p>
<h3 class="step">Step 6</h3>
<p>Select the white eye ellipse, Copy (Command + C), and Paste in Back (Command + B). With the copy still selected, move it up slightly. Change the fill of the ellipse to a dark orange color. Select the white ellipse again, Copy (Command + C), and Paste in Back (Command + B). This time, move the copy down slightly and change the color to a light yellow color.</p>
<p><img class="new_post_img" title="Step 6" src="http://vectips.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/gw_06.jpg" alt="Step 6" width="600" height="2047" /></p>
<h3 class="step">Step 7</h3>
<p>Select all the eye shapes, Copy (Command + C), and Paste in Front (Command + F). With the copies selected, move them to the right of the main ellipse shape and scale down slightly with the Selection tool (V).</p>
<p><img class="new_post_img" title="Step 7" src="http://vectips.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/gw_07.jpg" alt="Step 7" width="600" height="776" /></p>
<h3 class="step">Step 8</h3>
<p>With the Rectangle tool (M) create an rectangle about the width of the eye shape and about a fourth of it&#8217;s height.</p>
<p><img class="new_post_img" title="Step 8" src="http://vectips.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/gw_08.jpg" alt="Step 8" width="600" height="436" /></p>
<h3 class="step">Step 9</h3>
<p>Go Effects &gt; Stylize &gt; Round Corners and in the Round Corners dialog, change the radius to 10 px. The radius might change depending on dimension of your artwork. Just play around until you get something similar to the preview image below. Next, go Object &gt; Expand Appearance.</p>
<p><img class="new_post_img" title="Step 9" src="http://vectips.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/gw_09.jpg" alt="Step 9" width="600" height="426" /></p>
<h3 class="step">Step 10</h3>
<p>Go Effects &gt; Warp &gt; Arch. With the Warp Options dialog open, make sure the Horizontal radial button in selected, change the Bend percentage to 25, and change the Horizontal Distortion to 40. Next, go Object &gt; Expand Appearance.</p>
<p><img class="new_post_img" title="Step 10" src="http://vectips.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/gw_10.jpg" alt="Step 10" width="600" height="525" /></p>
<h3 class="step">Step 11</h3>
<p>Change the fill of the warped shape to a linear gradient. Make the first color stop in the gradient a red-brown color and the second color stop a dark red-brown color. With the Gradient tool (G) adjust the gradient so the darker part of the gradient is at the bottom of the shape.</p>
<p><img class="new_post_img" title="Step 11" src="http://vectips.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/gw_11.jpg" alt="Step 11" width="600" height="869" /></p>
<h3 class="step">Step 12</h3>
<p>Copy (Command + C) the eyebrow shape and Paste in Back (Command + B). With the copy selected, move it down and to the left slightly. Change the fill of the copy to a dark orange.</p>
<p><img class="new_post_img" title="Step 12" src="http://vectips.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/gw_12.jpg" alt="Step 12" width="600" height="858" /></p>
<h3 class="step">Step 13</h3>
<p>With both eyebrow shapes selected, rotate them to the left slightly with the Selection tool (V). Copy (Command + C) the eyebrow shapes and Paste in Front (Command + F). With the copy selected, go Object &gt; Transform &gt; Reflect. In the reflect dialog, select the Vertical radial button and press OK. Next, move the copies to the other side of the face above the other eye. Select the dark orange shadow of the copies and move it the left side of the eyebrow.</p>
<p><img class="new_post_img" title="Step 13" src="http://vectips.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/gw_13.jpg" alt="Step 13" width="600" height="2041" /></p>
<h3 class="step">Step 14</h3>
<p>Create an ellipse about the size of one of the eyes and place it in-between the eyes towards the bottom.</p>
<p><img class="new_post_img" title="Step 14" src="http://vectips.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/gw_14.jpg" alt="Step 14" width="600" height="384" /></p>
<h3 class="step">Step 15</h3>
<p>Fill the new ellipse with a radial gradient. For this gradient we are going to add one more color stop, making a total of three color stops in the gradient. To do this, click in the middle of the Gradient Slider in the Gradient panel. Next, change the first color stop to a lighter orange color than your original light orange from the main sun shape, change the middle color stop to the same orange color as the main sun body shape, and change the last color stop to the same light orange as the main sun shape. Change the first Middlepoint of the first two color stop to 65. Finally, with the Gradient tool (G), scale the gradient so the center of the gradient is in the top right corner of the ellipse.</p>
<p><img class="new_post_img" title="Step 15" src="http://vectips.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/gw_15.jpg" alt="Step 15" width="600" height="2340" /></p>
<h3 class="step">Step 16</h3>
<p>Copy (Command + C) the nose shape and Paste in Back (Command + B). With the Direct Selection tool (A) grab the bottom anchor point and drag in down and to the left, creating a shadow.</p>
<p><img class="new_post_img" title="Step 16" src="http://vectips.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/gw_16.jpg" alt="Step 16" width="600" height="859" /></p>
<h3 class="step">Step 17</h3>
<p>Create an ellipse about half the size of the main sun shape. Draw a rectangle covering the top half of the ellipse. Select both shapes and press the Minus Front button in the Pathfinder panel.</p>
<p><img class="new_post_img" title="Step 17" src="http://vectips.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/gw_17.jpg" alt="Step 17" width="600" height="1064" /></p>
<h3 class="step">Step 18</h3>
<p>Fill the new mouth shape with a linear gradient with the first color stop a red-brown color and the second color stop a darker red-brown color. With the Gradient tool (G) adjust the gradient bottom up so the darker part of the gradient is at the top of the mouth.</p>
<p><img class="new_post_img" title="Step 18" src="http://vectips.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/gw_18.jpg" alt="Step 18" width="600" height="646" /></p>
<h3 class="step">Step 19</h3>
<p>Copy (Command + C) the mouth shape and Paste in Back (Command + B). Move the copy up slightly and change the color to your dark orange color. Copy (Command + C) the mouth shape and Paste in Back (Command + B) again. This time, move the shape down and change the fill to your light orange color.</p>
<p><img class="new_post_img" title="Step 19" src="http://vectips.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/gw_19.jpg" alt="Step 19" width="600" height="802" /></p>
<h3 class="step">Step 20</h3>
<p>Create an oblong ellipse that is about one third the size of the mouth. Copy (Command + C) the ellipse and Paste in Front (Command + F). Move the copy down slightly and scale up about a fourth of the original size. Next, select both shapes and press the Minus Front button from the Pathfinder panel.</p>
<p><img class="new_post_img" title="Step 20" src="http://vectips.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/gw_20.jpg" alt="Step 20" width="600" height="1093" /></p>
<h3 class="step">Step 21</h3>
<p>Fill the new shape with your dark orange color. Copy (Command + C) the shape and Paste in Back (Command + B). Next, scale the copied shape up and change the color to your light orange color. Center both shapes on the bottom of the mouth shapes you have already created.</p>
<p><img class="new_post_img" title="Step 21" src="http://vectips.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/gw_21.jpg" alt="Step 21" width="600" height="615" /></p>
<h3 class="step">Step 22</h3>
<p>Select the newest curved shapes you created, Copy (Command + C), and Paste in Front (Command + F). Scale down and rotate the shapes to the left with the Selection tool (V), then  place them on the left top side of the mouth. Next, Copy (Command + C) the original curved shapes, Paste in Front (Command + F), rotate and scale the shapes to the right, and place on the right side of the mouth shape.</p>
<p><img class="new_post_img" title="Step 22" src="http://vectips.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/gw_22.jpg" alt="Step 22" width="600" height="977" /></p>
<h3 class="step">Step 23</h3>
<p>Select the main dark mouth shape, Copy (Command + C), and Paste in Front (Command + F). With the Selection tool (V), hold down the Shift key and scale the copy bottom up slightly. Still with the Selection tool (V), squish the copied shape from the bottom up until the copy is about one fourth the original size. Change the first color stop in the linear gradient to white and the second to a light orange. Also, change the Location of the Middlepoint to 80.</p>
<p><img class="new_post_img" title="Step 23" src="http://vectips.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/gw_23.jpg" alt="Step 23" width="600" height="1209" /></p>
<h3 class="step">Step 24</h3>
<p>With the Star tool (found under the shape tools in the Tools panel), click on the artboard to open the Star dialog. In the dialog change Radius 1 to 30 px, Radius 2 to 15 px, and the Point to 3 (your radius dimensions might be different depending on the dimension of your artwork, just make sure that Radius 2 is half the size of Radius 1). Squish the triangle shape horizontally to about half it&#8217;s original size. Place the triangle over the center of the teeth to the right . Next, select the teeth and the triangle and press the Minus Front button from the Pathfinder panel.</p>
<p><img class="new_post_img" title="Step 24" src="http://vectips.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/gw_24.jpg" alt="Step 24" width="600" height="1226" /></p>
<h3 class="step">Step 25</h3>
<p>With the Ellipse tool (L) create two ellipse toward the bottom of the mouth shape, making sure half of the ellipses are hanging outside of the mouth shape. Select the main dark mouth shape, Copy (Command + C), and Paste in Front (Command + F) two times. Select one of the copies, select the right ellipse, and press the Intersect button from the Pathfinder panel. Repeat the same for the left ellipse. Fill both ellipses with a linear gradient with the first color stop a light pink and the second color stop a pink color. Separately adjust each ellipse&#8217;s gradient with the Gradient tool (G)  from the top right of the ellipse to the bottom left.</p>
<p><img class="new_post_img" title="Step 25" src="http://vectips.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/gw_25.jpg" alt="Step 25" width="600" height="1993" /></p>
<h3 class="step">Step 26</h3>
<p>Select all the mouth shapes and place them on the sun&#8217;s face. Next, Rotate the mouth shape to the left slightly.</p>
<p><img class="new_post_img" title="Step 26" src="http://vectips.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/gw_26.jpg" alt="Step 26" width="600" height="785" /></p>
<h3 class="step">Step 27</h3>
<p>With the Star tool, click on the artboard to bring up the Star dialog. Create a star with a Radius 1 of 100 px, a Radius 2 of 50 px, and 3 Points (like before these dimensions might be different depending on your artwork). Next, go Effects &gt; Stylize &gt; Round Corners and in the Round Corners dialog, change to Radius to 20 px. Expand the shape and squish it down slightly  with the Selection tool (V).</p>
<p><img class="new_post_img" title="Step 27" src="http://vectips.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/gw_27.jpg" alt="Step 27" width="600" height="1035" /></p>
<h3 class="step">Step 28</h3>
<p>Fill the triangle with a three color stop gradient, making the first color stop a light orange color, the second a orange color, and the third a dark orange color. Select the Middlepoint in between the first two color stops in and change the Location to 65. Next, change the Location of the second color stop to 60 and the Middlepoint Location of the last two color stop to 15. Adjust the gradient from top to bottom with the Gradient tool (G).</p>
<p><img class="new_post_img" title="Step 28" src="http://vectips.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/gw_28.jpg" alt="Step 28" width="600" height="1098" /></p>
<h3 class="step">Step 29</h3>
<p>Make a copy of the triangle so you have a total of two. With the copy selected, go Effect &gt; Warp &gt; Arch. Within the Warp Options dialog, select the Vertical radial button and change the Bend percentage to 30 and expand the appearance.</p>
<p><img class="new_post_img" title="Step 29" src="http://vectips.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/gw_29.jpg" alt="Step 29" width="600" height="893" /></p>
<h3 class="step">Step 30</h3>
<p>Make a copy of the first triangle, move, and rotate the copy so it radiates from the sun face shape, creating sun bursts. Make sure the triangle is behind all other artwork by going Object &gt; Arrange &gt; Send to Back. Next, rotate and place copies of the triangles, alternating between the two, around the sun. Make sure that all the triangles are sent to the back.</p>
<p><img class="new_post_img" title="Step 30" src="http://vectips.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/gw_30.jpg" alt="Step 30" width="600" height="1121" /></p>
<h3 class="step">Step 31</h3>
<p>Select the main sun face shape, (Command + C), and Paste in Back (Command + B). With the copy still selected, move it down slightly and change the color to your dark orange color.</p>
<p><img class="new_post_img" title="Step 31" src="http://vectips.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/gw_31.jpg" alt="Step 31" width="600" height="826" /></p>
<h3 class="step">Step 32</h3>
<p>To add just a little more detail and fun to the sun, draw varying sized ellipses above the corners of the mouth. All done!</p>

<h3 class="step">Final Image</h3>
<p>Again below is the final image we just created.</p>
<p><img class="new_post_img" title="Final Image" src="http://vectips.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/gw_final.jpg" alt="Final Image" width="600" height="570" /></p>
<h3 class="step">Sample Usage</h3>
<p>Below are some sample images of this tutorial in use. One is a logo for a fictional alternate energy learning center for kids (just made that up, but you get the point). The second one is a global warming diagram for children (not very accurate, I know). It is easy to apply this illustration to other projects or adapt it to other illustrations (like the earth illustration in the Global Warming diagram). Try to see what you can use it for!</p>
