Artistic Calligraphic brush

A vector angled/tilted brush for hand writing with my pen tablet. I know it sounds extremely simple – it's one of the default brushes on Adobe Illustrator not found in Affinity Designer.

The Illustrator Artistic Calligraphic brushes look like this...

did this in 2 seconds

I challenge anyone to do this in affinity designer in 2 seconds

The other option would be a 'Blob Brush'

again done in 2 seconds.

Again challenge anyone to do this in affinity designer as a vector in 2 second.

Invaluable time saver for any designer.

A 'Blob Brush'  I believe this would be a more efficient use of computing power as it would auto expand and join together resulting in less individual curve layers.

I love affinity products, this for me is the one feature that is missing.

Good luck! Both requested many times already since Designer was first released (2014).

Nothing happened in this regard, so as you can see no changes/additions yet since your last post about that theme.

@v_Kyr Yes I agree - I wanted to bump this topic into a newer 2.0 forum.

You got to keep trying.

I believe in Affinity - they can do it.

+1 upvote! Would LOVE to have this. It's been "in progress" for -9- years!

Squeaky Wheel - Bump

"Affinity" any closer to getting this done.

Love your products

Really need this feature

Cheers

This is the obvious one missing for me, too. Having to lay out all those pen curves just to make it look like a calligraphic pen is very cumbersome and should be done in 10% of the time.

Adding a +1 to this request. 
  Unfortunately, this is one of my “must have’s”

  Otherwise, just an amazing tool!

I'm surprised there is no artistic calligraphy brush in Designer. Is it really in 2025, or am I wrong and just can't find it?????
