I'm trying to create simple characters as the ones in Explosm, but the lines I make with the "Add Points" tool is not visible on the render.
What is the best way to create lines to do characters like those?

I have read ALL tutorials. Really, just finished.
But my question is... I cant figure out how to transform a simple line made by the Add Points tool into a real object, that will be rendered. And neither how to edit the intensit of it width.
What exactly I want to do is the arms and legs of the characters I showed in the pecture above.

If you really have read ALL the tutorials you should know the answer. A line created with the add point tool won't render until you make a shape out of it. Making shapes is covered in the tutorials.wdfelippe wrote:I have read ALL tutorials. Really, just finished.

Read through them again... maybe you skipped a section.

Using the freehand tool is only a partial solution.
If you want to use the Add point tool YOU CAN! Just learn how to create shapes. That is the problem. The freehand tool has "Auto-stroke" as an option turned on. That is why you get a "shape".
The Add point tool has this as well but it only works when you "close" the shape... it is called "Auto-fill".
Anyway, glad you found a solution but keep in mind that is not the whole story. You are still going to need to learn how to create shapes at some point.
