I love that you teach us about designs & Ai in a way that’s entertaining & informative. usually tutorials focus only on the informative part so what you do is quite refreshing! 🍋 also you’re quite thorough when it comes to creating a design, from idea/inspiration to realising that idea, which is tremendously helpful for those of us who are new to this & want to create not just a design, but a good design thank you Abi for all that you do! 💛

@Abi Connick, You are a great gem in the creative industry🤩. I really love your branding videos especially when you show the whole process in detail. We get to know a lot from the whole process, from taking inspiration to creating artwork In illustrator. Please keep uploading the detailed videos. They give us extensive knowledge! (Some people are saying that you should upload shorter videos. So I will just say if you need to be a master of your skill, we need to invest your time in learning and practicing it) May you get more success in your career🙃!

One question about your pencil tool, are there any specific settings you use? Like if I use it, the lines are very wobbly and uneven, but yours usually come out (relatively) smooth! Is it just practice? Drawing tablet? Looking forward to more of your content!

Hello Abi, you are amazing, I have 2 small questions. It would be amazing if you can take your time and answer. Can I use mockups from envato for my logo presentation and can they post their mockup pictures on social media. Another question is...Can I use fonts from envato elements and peak them so they look original and sell them as logo? Is this everything cover under 33USD subscription plan?
@abiconnick
@abiconnick Жыл бұрын
as far as I know the answers to the questions are yes and yes! mock ups are fine to use on social media, then with the font's yes it can be customised and used within a logotype that you sell to a client, but you can't resell the font itself (if that makes sense :)
