I have spent a few hours putting together a nice guide on understanding and applying the pen tool in Photoshop.

Please leave a comment below.
I'd love to know if this helps anyone.

Tutorial is great Erik.
Already seen it, but I'll more than likely watch it again here sooner or later.

Taught me some stuff that I didn't know.
Which I don't get, seeing as I know everything.

Nice job on this'un erik.

This is great, i was familiar with how to mask the stuff out but some new techniques in this video. I used the pen tool to make a shape ready for Cinema 4D mainly, but as i said you've show a lot of new things that you can do with it.

Nice guide man, didn't realize you could do so much with the pen tool. You're like an expert at using it, ha, do you use it most of the time when you're making graphics?

I admire your work man.
