    Seems to stop after about 1:43, just as you change the traced wood to vector shapes…

    Hi Everyone – I’m getting this fixed ASAP, there seems to be a glitch in the file that was uploaded.

      Thanks you so much, I was enjoying that tut, since it looks kinda hard to make a grunge vector. ‘-’

    This video tutorial doesn’t teach just what it states in the title. It teaches many other small, yet useful, techniques. At least, in my opinion =)

    Anyway, thanks!
