Attached Link: Texturing Tutorial

Hi,

I'm trying to follow this tutorial (see link above)

But I can't get the pen tool and paths to give me the result that the tutorial gets, my curvy line is all the same thickness from tip to tip, whereas the tutorial's one is thick in the middle, and thins to a point at each tip...

How can I do this?
