Using the Gradient tool, apply a gradient (black and white for starter is fine).

Using the text tool, create some large bold text on the canvas and convert it to an outline.

(Optional) Using the Gradient panel, explore changing the angle or reversing the direction of the creating on the top oval.

With the reduced oval still selected, change the angle to -90 in the Gradient panel so the gradient will be rotated from top-to-bottom instead of left-to-right.

If you had held down the ALT key first you would duplicate the object. NOTE: It is important to hold down the SHIFT key FIRST to constrain the object and then hold down the ALT key to "pin" the object to its center point.

With the copied oval still selected, hold down the SHIFT and then the ALT keys to scale the oval proportionally and from the center and then drag slightly to reduce the oval size.

Select the top oval and copy it and then select Edit > Paste In Front which will paste the selected oval in the same place (similar to Paste In Place in Flash).

Next, let's convert the solid cylinder to a hollow cylinder:

Select the bottom oval and the rectangle and select the Unite option in the PathFinder panel and press the Expand button to convert the shapes into one shape with a stroke on the tool half of the oval.

Now, let's convert this transparent cylinder to a solid cylinder: Hold down the ALT click and drag the the oval to the top of the rectangle and then immediately press the SHIFT key to constraint is movement vertically and center it with the center of the rectangle top line.Is should have the same gradient applied to it automatically as the rectangle because Adobe Illustrator remembers the last gradient you applied. Using the Ellipse tool, click without dragging to create a 300 px oval and position it at the bottom of the rectangle with the center point at the center point of the base of the rectangle.Add a two-color linear gradient from left-to-right of the same color but different tint.Using the rectangle tool, click without dragging to create a rectangle that is three times as tall as it is wide (i.e., 100W x 300H).

Next, let's create a simple transparent solid cylinder using simple 2D shapes Position the gradient with the gradient annotation tool. Add a two-color radial gradient of any color to a black color.Using the Ellipse tool, hold down the SHIFT key and create a perfect circle with a fill but no stroke.There are many ways to create 3D objects in Illustrator: Create a 3D Objects Using 2D Shapes with Gradient Fillįirst, we will convert a simple filled circle to make it look more spherical like a ball.
