Beginners illustration with AD

[Shinry]

Good day!

I recently started designing a few logos, icons and random illustrations.

Being (a little) used to work with Paint.net, Krita and Gimp, discovering Affinity Designer is a huge thing for me. 

There's so much to learn, even more to improve at my own skills, but I hope I can get to a level I feel good with. 

Non the less I'd like to share a bit of it with you and maybe get some tipps.

Currently I'm always starting with basic shapes, though I want to draw more once my tablet arrives. For textures I used the Frankentoon brushes.

Cheers

Hi Shinry,

Welcome to Affinity Forums :)

You're off to a great start. Keep them coming :)

You're already probably aware, but you can find a complete set of video tutorials here. There's also a few more books, third-party training videos, and written tutorials listed here (Affinity designer section on top).

 

Thanks for sharing.

Thank you for the kind welcome. 

I'll definitelly need to watch many tutorials so thanks for posting the links. =)

Yeah! This is awesome, love the texture-y feel to this guy. The three layers also add depth. Great work.
