In this tutorial you will learn how to create a simple spider web illustration in Adobe Illustrator. You’ll start by creating the group of paths that will make up your spider web, using three paths and a basic blend, along with some Transform and Warp effects. Next, using the Appearance and Stroke panels and some basic blending techniques, you will add color and subtle highlights for your paths. Moving on, you will learn how to add a dark, subtly textured background and how to easily use a built-in symbol. Finally, you’ll learn how to add a few more subtle details and how to darken your entire illustration.
