There are two ways/methods here ...1) Grouping all single parts together so they are part of one group ... or ... 2) First geometrical add the dark brown parts and then group the resulting one dark brown part with lighter wooden handle part together After you arranged all single shape parts, select all of those, or it's layers (all layers are selected) then group them. Quote To select all objects within a selected layer: From the Layers Studio's Preferences, open the menu and tap Select All. Quote To create a group: Do one of the following: On the Layers Studio, swipe across each layer to select multiple layers, then tap Group. On the Edit menu, choose Group. In case of same color shape objects like the used 1 dark brown rounded rect and the 3 dark brown segments, you can geometrical add those first, so these 4 selected ones are becoming one object/shape after the geometrical add. - Afterwards select that now one 1 dark brown shape and the lighter wooden handle object and group them! In order to drag/move around the whole, always select the whole group layer then. - See here ... screencast5.mp4 Quote ☛ Affinity Designer 1.10.6 ◆ Affinity Photo 1.10.6 ◆ Affinity Publisher 1.10.6 ◆ OSX El Capitan☛ Affinity V2 apps still not installed and thus momentary not in use under MacOS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's bad, why the hell is it missing there? - Alternatively the Crescent- and Pie tools can be used to get some similar looking one (though not exactly that rounded way at the bottom then).

Don’t forget that you’re trying to show what a popsicle looks like after teeth have bitten into it. Also, the magenta one is the only one of the three that looks 3D away from the bite marks.

v_kyr Posted June 30, 2022 Share Posted June 30, 2022 Apply some FX 3D style setting for most parts and maybe an FX Bevel/Emboss to the white byte bite marks portion. - Something like this ...

v_kyr Posted June 30, 2022 Share Posted June 30, 2022 Look above @anto already showed you how to perform an FX outline there (select the whole group and FX outline it, also lower the opacity of the outline in case you want to have it slightly shine through). - The rest is nothing else as we've already showed you before. Further you've to be more specific when asking something, aka naming concrete where/what your problem is, aka what you want to apply from a certain image. eis_am_stiel2.afdesign Quote ☛ Affinity Designer 1.10.6 ◆ Affinity Photo 1.10.6 ◆ Affinity Publisher 1.10.6 ◆ OSX El Capitan☛ Affinity V2 apps still not installed and thus momentary not in use under MacOS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

v_kyr Posted June 30, 2022 Share Posted June 30, 2022 If it's difficult for you to build that up out of ADe shapes, then trace that stuff either manually (with the Pen- or Pencil Tool) or with some third party bitmap-to-vector tracing app. - Here are those inner shapes traced as vectors (you can copy/paste the layers over into your document and resize them as you need) ... lip-bite-shapes.afdesign For the two single curve layers (inner + outer shape) I've added a 1 pt stroke to them, just so they are better visable here. - You have to remove the applied stroke from these then and use them just with a fill color.

Josie Posted June 30, 2022 Author Share Posted June 30, 2022 I want it to look exactly like the image and somehow it’s not turning out that way. Do I have to geometrical subtract to get what I want from the rectangle? Because that seems kind of difficult to do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
v_kyr Posted June 30, 2022 Share Posted June 30, 2022 Not sure what you mean, it's all ready for reuse in one group here, just open that ADe file select the group and copy it. Then switch over to your document and paste it into your document for reusage. Move, resize, rotate and adjust it etc. to your needs. The outer brown shown below is an applied stroke to the bigger yellow/beige filled curve, you can adjust/resize or remove it as you need ... all-in-one-group.afdesign Quote ☛ Affinity Designer 1.10.6 ◆ Affinity Photo 1.10.6 ◆ Affinity Publisher 1.10.6 ◆ OSX El Capitan☛ Affinity V2 apps still not installed and thus momentary not in use under MacOS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
