    Thanks so much for sharing!

    Very nice! It can be difficult to simplify sometimes. You’ve pulled it off!

    Glad you were inspired! I’ve been using blending modes, especially multiply, lately for shading. I’ve found that doing a multiply gradient over a solid shape that fades to transparent is really great for shading . Keep on expirementing!

    Thanks for the brushes! Nice work.

    I'm always amazed with the things you can do with blend modes. This is just 4 circles, multiplied and repeated on a 9° rotation. So simple. So beautiful.

    Thank you for the detailed explanation, the link (Wow, that blog is loaded and I'm a huge fan of Dinotopia) and your original artwork file. I've edited my original post to include my .afdesign file and the original pic I used as inspiration.

    I've been focusing on shaing and coloring techniques in Affinity Designer lately. With this Blue Cobalt Shot Glass, I used gaussian blur, layer blending modes (Color Burn and Average) and opacity to acheive the effect that I was looking for. What methods would you use? UPDATE 3/15/2015 Thank you for all of the great input. I'm including the following to this post: The original image I used for inspiration My .afdesign file so you can see the layers Further Explanation (What I was trying to acheive) My goal was to make this illustration as "real" as possible. I've been expirementing with Gaussian blur, gradients, blending modes and opacity to acheive realistic highlights and shading. blue_cobalt_glass_RE.afdesign

    This is the .png file I created to make the brush in this tutorial. Enjoy!

    Great article and tutorial. I appreciate how you explained each of the brush settings along the way. Time to start making some brushes!

    That is fantastic. Is there a way to stop the pixelation on the thinner lines? I'm having issues with that too.
  18. raymondemery
    Yea Ronnie, that's the problem I'm having. The light color blends in and is hard to see.
  19. raymondemery
    Agreed. It would save some time for sure.

    Is there a way to change the color of the grid lines? They can be difficult to see on certain projects.

    Happy Birthday! The big 50!

    Wow, these are great! I really love the second piece. The rounded windows at the top and the flat shadowing show real depth. From the conversation, it sounds like an amazing place to visit. Where is it?
  23. raymondemery
    Thank you Peter!
  24. raymondemery
    Can't wait for the Mesh fill tool!
