Урок №9 Step 1 Basic Elements

In this tutorial I'm using CorelDraw X4.

OK, let's get started!

I will explain the basic elements and the steps to create a vector based eye.

1. Eye Body

2. Eye Liner

3. Pupil

4. Eye Lashes

Step 2 Working with Bezier Tools

Now that you know the steps and elements, we will begin step 1, which is creating the eye body.

1. Make a line by using the "Bezier Tool", after that copy and paste it (Control + C , Control + V)

2. Shape it by using "Shape Tool", right click at the center of the line and find "convert to curves " in the top toolbar.

Left click the start and end of the lines there will be two dotted arrow, left click and drag them in order to shape the line.

Repeat with the second line, and shape it like in the picture

3. Now, select all the lines using the "Pick Tool" and combine it by pressing Control + L, after that go to the "Shape Tool" and select each corner of the shape and find "Join two nodes" in the top toolbar and click it.

4. Done

Step 3 Coloring

Now we are going to colorize the body of the eye. Go to the "Fountain Fill Tool" which is in the left bottom toolbar or just press F11.

Set the color like in the picture below, to create a custom color double click the color box, and select others in the bottom color palette

and press OK.

Click the eye body with the "Pick Tool",

to remove the line in the eye body go to the right color panel, you will see the first color box is X spotted, right click it,

if you've done this correctly it will look like the image below.

Step 4 Creating Eyeliner

Now we will create the eyeliner.

Draw a shape by using the "Bezier Tool", create a shape like in the picture below, make sure that the last click is connect with the first click or else you cannot colorize the shape.

Shape the eyeliner by using the "Shape Tool", right click in between the two nodes or corners and find "convert to curves tool" at the top corner and click it.

After that you will see two dotted arrows, click and drag them to shape it, apply this to all the lines until you make a shape like in the picture.

Step 5 Creating Second Eyeliner

Now that you have the upper and bottom eye liner, we need to make a corner eye liner just to make it more realistic

1. Draw the second eye liner by using the "Bezier Tool", use a continuous left click to create a shape like in the picture below.

2. Shape it by using the "Shape Tool", right click in between two nodes or corners and find the "convert to curves tool" at the top corner and click it. After that you will see two dotted arrows, click and drag them to form the shape, apply this to all the lines until you make a shape like in the picture below.

3. Add a color by using the right color panel, choose any color you like, in this case I have used black.
