This is what we are trying to create:

Now for the upper liquid part.. two paths

blended….

and a black path added

and now create the bottle neck

Create a complex path filled with one solid color for the neck

This is how the bottle looks so far

Another path with gradient in it

This is how it fits in

Some darker parts

The neck is complete. Let’s make the Coca -Cola Badge. It’s one simple path

Another path inside with use of radial gradient

Major Pen Tool exercise and we are done

Let’s make the bottle cap… a simple path

A blend for shading

Another blend for the shining

and this is going to be the groove in the cap. very simple two blends.. one dark, the other is shiny

create a path covering them both and fill it with black and white gradient

Now select the 3 paths and make opacity mask

Copy paste the same Mask and arrange nicely. You can decrease the opacity of the masks on both left and right edges.

Just one last thing left to do. Make a path

and type Coca Cola Bottling on it

and the bottle is complete. I hope this tutorial was of some help… I hope to write more tutorials if this tutorial gets good response
