This is a bit early; so come back in 2018...When Affinity Video aka AV is out. Until then enjoy the inspiration.
The link below, is for Thinkbox TV; who have created some of the best British TV ads lately. They have also provided a gallery or two of some great classics....An absolute goldmine for inspiration...sheer bliss for me.
Peter, your chosen subject is: TV adverts 1960, to the present day.
Enjoy

Hello,
thank you for the fast answers! :-)
I hoped, that is possible to fill a shape e.g. with wingdings symbols (circle, dot etc.).
But as it seems, that this is not possible and I have to build a pattern.
Greetings
Arne
Is this what you had in mind?

This one...Joke! :P It was a subliminal compliment.
This is a great example of what can be achieved - and Publisher isn't even available yet!
Sound familiar? (Clue: Flyer)
It was my way of saying: no prizes for guessing who else is going to enjoy APu later on.
Have a look at Allan's post Menu Design...couple of fake screenshots/news bulletins halfway down, but excellent work at the top of the page.

You have put the orange circle over Essex, a TOWIE reference perhaps?
Can you put the sharks up North, preferably the in the River Tyne? Ant and Dec a shark's Saturday night takeaway. LOL
Meanwhile somewhere in Calais; specifically the canteens of the Police Municipal/National, the CRS and Gendarmes.

Thanks for checking That out. It's took a lot out of me, that was the most pen work, that I've ever done.
One idea that springs to mind is this...draw a pencil line around your hand. Now digitze it. Then do this.
1 Draw a straight line (where you watch would go) from the left side of your wrist to the right. Then draw a loop (like a mitten outline) that goes around your hand. Add and adjust nodes to follow the finger and thumb oulines.
2 Draw a straight line (where you watch would go) from the left side of your wrist to the right. Then using a combination of straight lines and many, many curves. Create the outline that follows the hand's shape. Then select those nodes and join them together.
3 Or just download the pumpkin tutorial!
This can be done with a mouse...Phew!

Trace an image with pencil and tracing paper. Scan or photo it. Open up AD, then get out your pen tool and using the pen and ink method, go over the pencil lines with the bezier curves.
This is my weapon of choice! :ph34r: And this was the theatre of war, where it took place.

Thank you for that link, Craig. As a "painter" rather than designer, I'm still struggling with bezier curves. Usually wind up throwing my hands up and walking off muttering at the point described in Fig 6. Nice to have some idea of what I'm doing wrong now and how to fix it when I lose control.
Hi LilleG, have you tried this? It's a devilishly simple tutorial...this is were my Eggies, were cast in those satanic mills known as AD.
https://forum.affinity.serif.com/index.php?/topic/5519-how-to-make-egg-shapes/?hl=egg
Bezier curves: think of them in two ways:
1 A rigid plastic stencil, with numerous curves, that you draw around.
2 A flexible square tube, that you bend to shape, then pin to the drawing board with small pins, then you draw around.
Or failing that,
3 Look at these three chains. The anchor points (slits) are level and are the same distance apart. The chain length is shorter in the top one and longer at the lowest. The chain or curve's length is adjusted by pulling in or out extra links through the slit. If you want to make the chains lean to the left, then you would simply twist the card's bottom to the right.
On screen you would simply teak the curve's grab handle and push/pull to the left or right, to get your desired effect.

I'd tell you but...Nobody knows!!!
Actually; it's more like Bing images, Youtube, Pinterest and that dark recess called my imagination.

Nice, just like that pose from (the original) Karate kid!
Tips: hmmm, Bing images and Pinterest are my go to sites every time. My posts are littered with images from those sites.

Hi Dale,
I've just put my usual sidespin on things, by talking about helping out a new user called Blind Lens.
https://forum.affinity.serif.com/index.php?/topic/11260-totally-and-completely-baffled/
No tutorial will ever work, if the user won't even enter the classroom!
Sometimes, a tutor has to step outside that classroom and catch the new guy's attention with...Hey that's a nice camera, I've had something like that before? Have you had it long? Do you want to learn a few instant tricks? What do you want from it? Wanna come into this room and grab a seat; it's better than standing out here? Bye the way, my name is...
Now, the second lesson begins. ;)

Welcome back Hilary. :D
Did you go to Resources and get yourself some brushes? Paolo and Daub are the first two that spring to mind.
As for swapping OS's, it's just like having two left feet....Hmmm where's the ⌘ key on my Windows laptop? C'mon, c'mon! It's not there
To quote the great Homer: DOH!

Hi Mvdarbs, welcome to the forums,
your first step should be this: which pattern do you want to use? This is your starting point.
Secondly, you need to decide how far apart the sections are.
Then...you can do this.
Use this as a template; tip, push the squares together so there are no gaps.
HTH
