I looked up for this particular kind of question but didn't get good results.
So what I've been trying to create seems to be simple but I can't get a workaround.
I have this kind of line art flower I'm working on:
And this is the actual result I'm looking for:
What I'm trying to achieve is that the selected petals of the flower do not overlap each other and show what's behind the gaps between the lines of the front petal. The front petal should be in the front and show nothing else behind it.
I've tried filling the front petal with white but it screws up the blend effect it has.
I've tried making a clipping mask as well, but it didn't really work.
Do you guys have any suggestions?
Thanks in advance. :)
