If you like working on Illustrator, then today I’m going to teach you a very nice tutorial, which is going to help you a lot in becoming the professional designer. You will learn how to create a Pen and Pencil Organizer using Illustrator. You will also learn to use hidden/special effects present in the illustrator in this tutorial.

So let us begin the tutorial. We will only use the objects that are created in illustrator and will not import any object from outside.

In this tutorial, we will use the objects that are created in illustrator only and will not import any object from outside.

1. First, let us open a new document. To open a new document. go to File > New and a new document will open. As you can see in the image above, we will name the file and then input the sizes of the artboard. Always remember to keep the color mode in the document to RGB, so that the image looks like an original image.

2. In the image, you can see a pen, a pencil and 2 brushes. First, let’s start working on the pen.

3. This fountain pen is made with the help of gradient, no special effect has been used. To make the pen, first make a box and fill it with gradient color. The value of gradient is shown in the image below.

4. To fill the box with gradient, use the values shown below.

5. Since we have filled the box with gradient, we’ll proceed to making the shape of the handle/cap of a pen along the box, as shown in the image.

6. Fill this shape with gradient color, which will look something like the image below. Note that we should be precise with the value of gradient, as we did while making the top box of the pen.

7. Let us give this pen handle/cap a 3D look. To achieve the 3D look, select the handle and go to Object > Path > offset path. A window similar to what is shown here will pop up. In this offset window, select 0.5 pt value and press OK.

8. By doing so, we’ll get one more shape on the outer side of the pen’s handle. Fill this shape with 20% black.

9. Now, select both shapes on the sides of pen’s handle/cap and go to Object > Blend > Blend Option. You will get a window and then put the value mentioned in the image below (red marked).
