David, hi. Here I am working with live type. I used Object>Envelope Distort>Make with Warp. I used Arc Lower, then made a few adjustments. Just took moments. K

Ton, I played this same idea long ago. I created many wacky variable widths. I labeled them 01, 02, 03, etc It really created many wonderful designs, with just a single stroke, it created various size dots and no overlaps. K

Hendy,is this what you had in mind??? Here I am working with Live Type. With your Text Tool, set your type and give it a Fill color. Switch to your Selection Tool (black arrow). Effect>Stylize>Inner Glow. Change Mode to Multiply and give it a dark color. You will see in your Appearance Panel, Inner Glow Fx has been added. K

Personally, I have never had much luck with Blends when there were not matching number of anchors. Here is another method to recreate if anyone is interested. I started with a rectangle. Then Object>Path>Offset. I used 10pt I gave that new rectangle corner radius of 6pt Again Object>Path>Offset. That gave me 6 closed paths. Group. Next, Line tool, create 6 vertical lines, 10pt spacing. Group. Rotate that group angle 45 Put together, Rectangles and rotated Group. Then Object>Live Paint, Strokes. I random color as I work. Expand Live Paint and Ungroup Object>Select same Stroke color and Object>Path>Join. Do for each color Lastly, (White arrow) I select the corner anchor at that miter, and gave it a radius. I used 30,24,18,12 and 6pt. This gives the appearance of a blend. Fun to do. K

Another day, another cup of coffee.😀 This is how I recreated your design to fit a perfect hexagon. I made bands of fill colors. Group Duplicate and rotate 60 Duplicated and rotated -60 I then aligned and resized each to fit that hexagon Next Live Paint. Then expand Live Paint and Pathfinders>Unite same colors. K

Personally, I like your original design better. Good luck making your negative space and positive space equal and then fit into the hexagon perfectly. K

Basant Mishra, Hi. True, grids are everything. For your given vector shape to fit exactly into a hexagon shape, hmm, there a problem here. Here I have a seamless hexagon pattern. Hexagon is compromised of equilateral triangles. I did Live Paint, following your design. No problem I thought. So I redid. COUNT your triangles! As you can see, there is a gaping negative space but now fits into a true hexagon shape. K

I choose Capsules For the Knockout Group In Appearance Panel, select your pattern Fill, give it Opacity: 0% Select your B text and Pattern Fill. Object>Group. In Transparency Panel- Check Knockout Group. K

Alexandra, just a thought, are the downloaded patterns actual Pattern Swatches? Here I created 4 shapes and filled with a color. I duplicated and manually filled with 4 different Pattern Swatches. If I took the original shape and selected, then switched to the eyedropper tool and sampled the shape with Pattern Swatch, it does pickup the pattern and not just the color. K

Doug, I see what you mean. When I expanded the pattern brush, all those circles were not true circles. Just slightly off. To correct, I ungrouped and applied script JET_ReplaceWithSymbol. Break Link to Symbol if want. All shapes are true circles. Closed path, 4pts K

Wesley, hi I random color as I work. To recreate, I used a Blend. 3 circles. I used Blend Steps 21 Expand Blend Steps and ungroup. Align Panel: I used Distribute Spacing of 0. Group your circles. Make your overall art nouveau shape circles. See that purple stroke, I know that size 595.546 pt. Next, I made a Pattern Brush that same size. Then I applied the Pattern Brush that purple stroke. K

Mark, as always there are many ways of doing things. I’m working with Live Type, Text on a path. I’m not quite sure of your end goal. Getting started. Concentric circles. The outside measures 32mm Live Paint. Fills and Strokes. Expand Live Paint. Unite same colors for Tabs. The center stroke is for Text on Path. Round the corners on your Tabs Text on Path. Be sure to Type>Type on Path Options, Align to Center. K

Julie, I'm very happy I could help. I often times use visual files/ getting started files to help. Not Expanded, very flexible. I have a very large collection of files, all custom made. (20+years) Saved as Illustrator templates, .ait. No need to keep reinventing the wheel! 😀 Depending upon the task, what to use. K

Edit: Resave your file as an .ai file. No need to work with .eps file. Julie, because the text has been outlined, the only other choice is to manually place your characters. Here I created a radial grid, place on an upper layer and lock. It’s just a visual guide for rotation and placement. On a lower layer, Ungroup all your text. Manually place. K

Good job Didiermazier! Worked like a charm. The only thing I would add is one more step at the end. Scissor cut the other side. This way it gives you more space when using a larger stroke weight. K

When you said you wanted the digits to be horizontal, did you mean like this??? If so, these are the steps I used. For the most part, same steps as above example. The big difference is I made a “Text Symbol” as placeholder. It’s text on path. Transform. Expand Transform Reset Symbol Unlink Symbol Type in your text. Edit: As you can see, the digits are evenly distributed around a radial, just without the rotation K

Andreas, hi. To put numbers 00 to 49 around a circle here are the steps I used. Basically, I used Text on a path and Effects>Transform. All text is live. Draw a circle. Stroke Color None, Fill Color None. With the Line Tool, Draw a stroke line. Align your line inside circle and align center. With Type on Path Tool, Click on line. I typed in 00 for placeholder text. I used Myriad Pro 14pt, Paragraph is Center aligned With White arrow tool, adjust both Handles to the ends. Type>Type on a Path>Type Options, Change to Center. Select both your circle and Type on a Path. Group. Effect>Transform. Here on my settings. (360/50=angle 7.2) need 49 copies. Expand Effect>Transform. I ungrouped x2 Type in your numbers. As you can see, the left side, the numbers are upside down. So, Select numbers 26-49, Type>Type on a Path>Type Options, Check Flip. K

Akablue, In addition to your Stroke weight, I also see that 2 out of 3 paths have a 3pt Round Brush applied. K

Mark, I would use an Opacity mask on a radial gradient. You had a raster image for shadow. To walk you though my steps: Draw a circle, fill it with a radial gradient. Put in the Multiply mode. You have the Orange and Cyan shapes. Duplicate the orange shape. Give it a color of white. Put your gradient below the white path. Select both your white path and gradient. Transparency panel, Fly out menu, Create Opacity Mask. K

Markb, As Ton mentioned, you have to many repeats in your brush. You only need one repeat. The top example has to many repeats. It’s getting condensed like your brush. The bottom example had only one repeat. K
