"Carbon Fiber Pattern"

For all those who are learning to vector and want to add a little carbon-fiber texture to their piece; here's a quick tutorial on how to make a carbon fiber pattern. It's really f***in' easy, you can find this tutorial anywhere. Of course, you can find it here as well. The numbers for the tunersource.com carbon fiber is slightly different. Anyways who cares right? On with the tutorial.


Step 1.





Make a new document 4 x 4 px. Select the colors and fill as shown below.







Step 2.

Now that is done we can define the pattern. Go to 'Edit'; ;Then go to 'Select All'; Define pattern. Name your piece whatever you like. Don't be shy. I think you should call it "Carbon Fiber Pattern 01"







Step 3.

Now that you've made the pattern you can now select the area you wish to make carbon fiber and then go 'Edit'; 'Fill'; Slect'Carbon Fiber Pattern 01'; Hit 'Ok' again and Clack!! You have carbon fiber.




Here is a basic example of the pattern in effect.
