David Posted January 19, 2015 Share Posted January 19, 2015 Overdone topic I know, started this a week ago with the news of that the shoes are to going on sale this year. It then found its way to the top of my "Avoiding real work todo list". (Don't worry, Pirate Cat riding a polar bear is NOT forgot and is in build) Andrew Tang, Jobalou, Garytagreg and 3 others 6 Quote DART | Twitter | Dribbble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff MattP Posted January 20, 2015 Staff Share Posted January 20, 2015 Super-stylish and a great colour palette too - very future and very cool! I'm SO relieved the cat/polar bear combo is not forgotten - you've got at least one eager fan sat on the edge of his seat excitedly waiting to see it! :D David 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pmeinertz Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 Well one thing "Back to the future" did not predict, was the coming of the superior "Affinity Designer" software! Nice image by the way :-), brings you down memory lane. peter 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AWESOME! :D Getting very excited now! (despite having a stunning cold and feeling like death, generally!) Spinning issues don't sound good... Is it when you do anything in particular? Usually it's only performing a command that could cause any kind of spinning ball. If you're getting it often, is there any chance you'd send me the file and I can take a look and tell you what's going on? :) Thanks!

Matt Spinning started after I tidied up into groups, so now if it want to edit the Polar bear I double click into the group it spins for a few mins before it picks up my selection? Maybe a ram issue?

Staff MattP Posted January 29, 2015 Staff Share Posted January 29, 2015 That sounds really odd - can't think of any reason it would do that... Would you mind sending the file to me (or even just the bit of the file that you're having trouble with - if you're trying to save the big reveal until later, hehe).

David Posted February 1, 2015 Author Share Posted February 1, 2015 Damn, love this style. Can you point me towards any tuts that could help me develop something similar? Thanks :) I cant say I know of any tutorials out there??....its really based on my freehand drawing style which Affinity has allowed to me to translate in a way Ive been unable to do in illustrator, due to the beautiful way it handles custom lines, styles and masks. (there are tuts available for all of those) The way I would learn this would be to sketch up you own image and scan it in, lock in place and trace using chunky pen lines. It may help to find a style of work you like, and have it open for styling references etc - but ultimately allow your own natural style to guide you. Once you get it working, close the image you've used for styling references and let your work evolve by its self.
