How was it done? Brand tools or sick plugins?

Way easier than you think mate. Make the snowflake / Circle, save it as a symbol, repeat and shrink the size ad infinitum.

agreed, you can use the ellipse tool, transform it so its skewed with the father top and thinner bottom, stroke it then replace the center later, Do the same thing but larger so you have the gap. Then fill with the symbols you already have made and space them manually or with some align magic

what the hell are you talking about

it literally says there on the screenshot that it's the Blend tool. That's what it is.

OP: take two whatever shapes and draw a path behind them, then push Blend. Adjust the blend settings if you want.

Thanks for the animated tut mate! I didn't know ya could do that

I like to make a brush out of a shape, then go into brush settings and play around. Now, use pin tool and make a path and simply stoke path with Brush.
