Hi guys,
 
I start to study vector graphics (will use it for my next video game) and have chosen Affinity Designer as my primary tool. Here is my first lesson. Simple sphere.

My new avatar made in Affinity Designer.  :D    

100% vector + some dust texture

My new avatar made in Affinity Designer.  :D    

I like this, clean simple, yet shows character. I know a lot of people underestimate these types of design, compared to out-of-this-world illustrations, but it's quite hard to make something simple that doesn't look boring.

Hehe, very nice :)

OK, I tried to make one myself.
 
Feel free to use, elaborate, adjust, post a better version ;) Also I don't think I managed to create the best AD material icon out there ;)
 
Please note that this is 400% (192pt) size. For basic material stroke, you shoud use 8pt width, square caps.

It's the end of another year and that means time for some new Dream resources for Affinity. This is a collection of gradients designed to make circles look like spheres. Created by request.

Been playing a bit with Affinity Photo and started messing with sky replacement or enhancement. This is a set of gradients created (mostly) from photographs to mimic interesting skies. Enjoy!

Hi everyone,
 
I've just released a series of 10 videos at 5 minutes each about the absolute basics of image editing at this link: https://www.udemy.com/enhancing-photos-for-complete-beginners/?src=sac&kw=enhan
 
This is not a course about how to use any one bit of software. It just covers the basic processes & in what order you would do them with just about any image editing program. The majority of the videos use Photoshop Elements but I also use Affinity Photo and Pixelmator.
 
*Ahem!* - this course does not recommend any one bit of software over another. The very basic stuff I show was selected because the course is for those people who come to an advanced image editing program with all it's buttons and don't know where to start. It aims to show you what sort of things you should be starting out with. It's for people who have said something like:
 
 'I want to improve my photos. I've looked at one or two programs like Photoshop but all of them are just a confusing mass of buttons. Where do I even begin to understand what to do?'
 
All the processes I describe can be done in Affinity Photo, and it naturally leads into 2 of the Affinity Photo courses I have at Udemy - the Five Steps to Better photos course and the Solid Foundations course. Oh; and did I mention it's free?
 
Right, with that course released I can get back to doing the Affinity Photo 1.5 update videos for the other courses at Udemy. Thanks for your time & I hope the lessons prove to be of use to as many of you as possible.
