Description
Part 2 of my Pen Tool Tutorial. This explains how to work with a curvier line and using more anchor points.I'll try to get Part 3 up sometime this week. It'll cover even more complicated lines, like really long ones, really crazy ones, and inking a whole area at once rather than making lots of small individual lines (like the ones in Part 1 and 2). I don't wanna leave any pen tool beginners hanging, thinking "Well what do I do NOW??", haha.
Please let me know if I didn't make something very clear. I had a very low attention span when I put this one together. XD
Again, keep in mind that this is how I, personally, like to work. If this doesn't quite suit you, there are many different Pen Tool tutorials here on DA! :3

I usually use that technic in flash, ... i don't like photoshop, is too messy (Gimp, FTW - i must check if this works there), but nice tutorial...

No, I do not use the CTRL button at all. I just click on it with the left mouse button and hold it down while dragging. Does it not work for you for some reason..? ;___;

ZOMG. Now I get it. D8
What makes it different is the fact that I have the box "Auto-add/Auto-delete" option on!! XDDD
When I left click on a point, the point disappears. Now I noticed it. XD

Ah cool, good to know I'm not the only one who works with large images! Although they slow my comp down too. >x<

Hmm... I always thought that all the experienced artists worked with large images. I'm not a professional (just a beginner, I'd say), but even I prefer something not less than 4000 pixels. Oh, my poor computer...
Thanks for the tutorial!
