Extrude and Bevel your Cello

Having explored 3D in adobe Illustrator recently with the 3D revolve effect, I was keen to try extrude and bevel. It was incredibly easy because the default settings of -18 X axis, -26 Y axis and 8 degrees z-axis rotation seemed to convert my cello drawing into a 3D instrument.
This drawing was inspired by the fact I wanted to go to a concert a friend of mine was playing in. To do this, my dog needed to go into the kennel for the first time. I was anxious and imagined all sorts of scenarios except the one that happened. She was ill in the night and made a horrible mess of my living room so we didn't even get as far as the kennel.
So this is my imagination running riot and my dog being remorseful she prevented me going and taking up cello lessons.

How to draw medicine pills in adobe illustrator

For a diagram I was asked to do recently, I needed a pile of pills and realised I didn't know how to draw in 3D. So I have just worked it out by trial and error. First mistake I made was to try the effect on a whole pill when in actual fact I needed half a pill. Then I realised I needed to 3D revolve around the right edge, not the left. Finally when I tried to rotate my pill I got something like a centrifuge rotor so I tried changing the Z-axis as well as the Y and finally had what I needed to create my drawing.
