Create hexagons, exactly as shown below using the freehand tool

Next is customize the hexagons

A. Click on everyside, (one by one) with shape tool

B. Then use "convert line to curve" tool, and curved exactly as shown below 

Do to all side, and the result will be like the image below,.... easy, right?

A little bit difficult, but still easy ... as to create a shiny metal effect.

If you look at the picture below, this is the "Fountain Fill" dialog. You can see that I marked with a red oval, it is an important part in the coloring to make it look like shiny metal

A. Custom B. Curent C. Position D. Triangle Color Parameter.

Every Triangle has 2 value : Position and Current Color

You can see we have 5 Triangle, and with start point is black, and end point is white. So, we start after the black start point. To Create Triangle parameter, Just double click on the dotted line ....

Now click the Triangle one by one :

First Triangle : Position 26%, Current Color : 70%black

Second Triangle : Position 40%, Current Color : 40%black

Third Triangle : Position 52%, Current Color : 20%black

Fourth Triangle : Position 72%, Current Color : White

FifthTriangle : Position 90%, Current Color : 20%black

Easy, Right..... I'm sure you can follow. And the result would be like this :

Woow, i'm sorry guys, i didnt mention the size since beginning ;).... Let say It had :

Width : 5cm, Height : 6cm

Click the Basic hexagons, on property bar >> Effects >> Countour, or just press Ctrl+F9

Set the offset value : 0.3Cm, Step : 1, Click Apply. (see image below)

You see now we have two layer of hexagons, Break it Appart, 

Arrange >> Break Contour Group Appar Ctrl+K. 

Fill that new layer with YELLOW (temporary)............(see image below)

Now, Click the Yellow hexagon, and contour it ... follow the contour parameter as shown below

Arrange >> Break Contour Group Appar Ctrl+K. like we do it on previous step.

After you break it appart, first click the Black solid layer, Hold the SHIFT on your keyboard, click the Yellow layer, then press Trim Button on menu bar..(see image below)

If you drag out the yellow layer, you will see that the yellow layer seem have no fill or just big outline, actualy that is Solid Fill Area. (see image below)

Lets fill that layer with  " Fountain Fill " , like we did before on Step 3, There will be triangle, but this time we make it more simple, just with Two triangle parameter.(see image below)

Now click the Triangle one by one :

First Triangle : Position 28%, Current Color : 60%black

Second Triangle : Position 77%, Current Color : 10%black 

The result would be like this (see image below)

No drag it back to the center, and it would be like this (see image below)

Create  TWO rectangle 

And each have Width : 0.7cm Heght : 6cm.

Then Draw straight line with 5cm long. 

Put one of the rectangle on the left side of the line, do you know how to do that ? 

Click One of rectangle, Hold "Shift" on your keyboard, select the line, then press "L", 

do that to another rectangle , but this time on right side of the line.(see image below)

Now , Select that two rectangle. Go to menu bar Effects >> Blend,.... Follow all the parameter on Blend Dialogue Box, dont forget to click Apply (see image below)

Delete the line, Go to Menu bar Arrange>> Break Blend Group Appart.

Click the middle rectangle, UNGROUP it, Select all rectangle GROUP it.

Then Rotate it to 135 Degrees  (see image below)

And fill it with Fountain Fill , Here we determine the direction of the light and how much light was shining armor. With more first color darkens, it means that the rising was close and very strong.  (see image below)

The Result would be like this...(see image below)

What we have so far

Select orange rectangle, go to menu bar Effects >> Powerclip >> Place Insde Container,

pointed that black arrow to inner layer of the shield/hexagons,

The Result would be like this...(see image below)

Step 9 - The flashes of light

Create object like (A) on image below, then use shape tool to modify, do exactly like the example (B)

(see image below)

Fill it with WHITE color and no outline, then put it above the shield.....

Select that white thing, Use interactive Transparancy Tool, choose Uniform..... just follow the parameter that shown on image below.

That's it Guys!. Hope this tuts can inspiring you to create great vector, and i hope you learn something from this...... see you in next Corel Draw Tutorial

Draw a line, using freehand tool (F5) make it 35degree last node, 

Use Shape Tool , you will see red line and small ribbon, drag everyside of the ribbon exactly like the image number 2

Then, make that line curve like this :

1. Using shape tool  

2. Click on the middle of the line 

3. Convert line to curve

connect the last curve, with a new line.... not too straight, tilt it about 5 degrees

1. Using shape tool  

2. Click on the middle of that new line 

3. Convert line to curve

Connect the first node to the last node, so that curve turn to "close curve" , what is "close curve" ? it mean that you can fill it with color, effects and so many thing. Or just press Auto-Close Curve. You see that the last node with the first node connected and automatic closed. 

Now, create the curve for the body

1. Using shape tool  

2. Click on the middle of that new line 

3. Convert line to curve

As we know all, twitter has a distinctive color, blue. If the bird is brown, it's not twitter, it is BEKO-BEKO ! Hahahahaha. If you live in the city of Bogor, must know what it is  BEKO-BEKO...;)

First, we create the Outer Layer of the Eye

Create a circle, fill color using interactive , as you see the image below,... follow all the linear fill parameter.

Lets we call it "Blue Eyes"

This bird only have 2 hairs..... ;)

Do i have to write on this section..... come on,... just follow the instruction as the image below, it just repeated from previous section. if you cant follow the step, Go Up...;)

Follow the Linear Value/Parameter, as show on this image below, Duplicated the hair, and put it above the bird head

First layer.

Create 4 side object like stealth ship , curve every side by using shape tool

Color it

Now we create the second layer of the bird mouth..

Countour >> Inside >> and the value is depend on first layer size., the most important is how you describe the deep of the bird mouth open
