Continuing on from part One, I will now show you how to use the Stroke Width tool and finish off the character in illustrator.
The exciting new feature for Illustrator CS5: The Stroke Width Tool (Shift + W) allows you to vary the width of a stroke along its length at any point regardless of where the anchor points are. This means that you can change a stroke’s weight at any point. To get started zoom in on your stroke, select the tool and click and drag from the middle of the stroke outwards. Continue to do this along the line until you achieve the desired effect.
