Then, we were discussing about last week's homework
and finally I know the function of option button :) so lets take a look!
so when it happens like this, don't worry, you can use the option button to modify the handle
after that I learnt how to trace kitchen utensils ;) so here's the steps
1. You have to open the image first, so click File > Place and choose your file
2. your picture will be appear on your artwork
3. I want to make my art board's divided into 4 parts so I'll use ruler as the divider. click View > Ruler
4. make the line from the ruler. you have to drag the line from the ruler until the blue line appears
5. take a look to the layers box, and double click
6. it will be appear layer options. I changed the name of the layer from "Layer 1" into "Reference 1". This layer's function is for the object (the image) that you want to trace so make sure you've ticked the Template box and Dim Images to box (this box is for image transparency).
7. I made the second layer. This layer is for my artwork (place for tracing)
your image will be like this
8. I started to trace the spoon. Make sure you use the "Artwork" layer while tracing
9. You can use wood texture by clicking Windows > Texture
10. you could also use gradient ;)
i tried tracing another kitchen utensils:
started to colour it!
Tada!
done ;-)
