Hi, I've only recently begun using Illiustrator.
I'd like to know how to complete part of an Illustrator tutorial I am following.
Here is the tut:

And I am stuck at step 5.
I can create a path made up of points (like you do for sweep nurbs or loft nurbs etc in Cinema4D) with bezier handles to refine the shape of the path, but I have no idea how to convert those points on the path into any kind of shape, much less one like the tut shows.

Could anyone explain this procedure for me?

(I have some experience of PhotoShop, almost none of Illustrator and more or less none with the pen tool in either)
