"Skin" won't appear on 2D sketches

Hi! So I’m really new to SketchUp, and I’m trying to make an SPQR keychain to print/sell at our Latin convention. But whenever I try to make sketches for the feathers, none of them have that grayish/white face on them, and won’t let me extrude anything (theres actually a few that will, but I don’t know why). Thanks!

Typically that sort of issue is caused by edges not being coplanar. The easiest way to deal with this sort of thing is to draw a large face and draw the shapes on it. Then erase the edges you don’t need.

Cool! Thanks!
