To draw a special line

[Nadar]

Hi 😉

 

Can someone tell me the way to draw a line as the one below ?

Thanks

Probably not a simple line, but a closed curve - draw the overall outer edge and fill with black.

Calligraphic brushes are currently not supported out-of-the-box in Affinity.

Alternatively, you can try with Photo or Designer in Pixel Persona, using an self-defined intensity brush:

• Create a white rectangle 360x180
• add 10x360 black rectangle centered
• export as PNG
• Create new intensity brush from PNG
• Adjust spacing, reduce to very small value
• have a keyboard connected to ipad
• make slow brush stroke. Adjust brush rotation with keyboard while painting to gradually transition between extra wide brush stroke (down direction) to a very narrow brush shape.
• These method needs a lot of practice to produce acceptable results

It is not what I was looking for.

For those that are interested by that possibility here the way :

-Draw the line with the pencil (not the vector pencil)

-go to the stroke tool in the vertical palette on the right, below the color tool

-In the window opened, click on the line between the square and the dotted line.

-Under width, there is a line on which you can move points: use them to create the desired thicknesses at the different places you want.

Nice. Can you create the line shown in your first post using brush / pressure profiles? For me it didn‘t work.
