Curve like this

[mumford]

Hi

Could someone assist me in creating or guiding me in how to create a curve like this http://www.bullsigns.com/curve.gif

I know it's done with the pen tool, but my attempts have been bad and look nothing like the example I have linked

Any help will be much appreciated

Thanks!!

I'm including a zipped Illustrator file:

Hope that helps.

I suspect you may have been confusing the pen (bezier) tool with the pencil tool. The pen tool draws straight lines and curves, the pencil is better for hand-drawn paths, it just follows your movements exactly.

Thank you so much for this! I will look at how it was done and hopefully learn from it.

Just tried to open it in AI, it says it was created in a newer version, and does not open the file correctly.

Could u re-send it, I am using AI 9

Thanks
