affinity designer Nobody Needs Adobe

[specworkfan]

I sketched in pixel persona, but everything is vector here. The only annoyance was the text, Affinity auto smooths too much. So I did the writing in pixel persona, and then traced the shape manually.

 

Both works took about 3 days, if it were Illustrator, it would be 7. Vector still takes me at least twice as long, but before Affinity, I wouldn't attempt doing anything vector unless it had to be scaled up big. Now it is a breeze.

Wow!
All illustrations are extraordinary, but I like especially the "Amsterdam image" with the meticulous work of the basket and the lace dress.
Very nice work.

How many years have you been using AD?

Thank you all for comments.   :-)

 

 

The lace is something that really stands out with vector. It would be much harder in raster to get the geometry right. These are for phone cases, so I need to be able to port them and change things slightly. I kind of think this Dutch one could be nice for poster or brand. The green in white is subconsciously Heineken. I just realized that. In this series I am focusing on the tourist cliches that sell, so I got it more right than I thought.  :-)

I think the green color is perfectly appropriate for Amsterdam, and not because of Heineken......  :rolleyes:
