Attached Link: Bulb Tut Link

Sorry for asking this here but there's no Illustrator forum.

I am following this tutorial for Cinema4D but it begins in Illustrator by making a curved path with the Pen Tool.

(I don't know much about the pen tool in PhotoShop never mind Illustrator).

In the tutorial he's got a curved blue line but no white area - I have a white area!

Also he's talking about increasing the path's width to 3 points - but only for the tut, so for an actual model to be realistic in C4D the path needs to be 1 point in thickness - how do I do this?

(I've tried Path /Outline Stroke - as per the tut - nothing happened, so I'm assuming there's some parts of the tut deliberately missed out as he's assuming people are used to using all the same progs as he is - I'm okay in C4D, but not Illustrator.)

Help? Pretty please?
