    I’ve been using Illustrator for over a decade and I still learned a few things here! Some of these tools were added after I originally learned the program and I just never took the time to learn them. Some of these will definitely speed up my vector art workflow, thanks!

    That "create outline" trick will just make the whole letter a shape.If you want stroke,you have to do it manually and do replace spine to use some cool gradient blend.

    Very nice. Short and crisp. Elipse is a closed object and blend needs to have beginning and end. Your solution is good and slick.

    I've been struggling to figure out how to create an effect on a logo I'm working on and I noticed that you use the effect in your transitions in this video. It's like a "modern paint brush" effect, but I'm trying to do it on a curve. I believe it it would involve creating a brush in Illustrator. Any ideas? Thanks!

    When you outline and expand, you will still have a shape, more or less. I don't think the blend option works on shapes, only strokes.
