Hi, Nick! I hope this comment finds you well in body, mind, and spirit. Cool video and exercises! I'm going to have try the worksheets as there are times in digital photography where drawing with a mouse is needed. Questions, comments, ideas, etc. are welcome. Best Wishes, my Friend!

Hey Russ! That's great, it will definitely help build up some more precise control. All the best, and thanks so much for watching and commenting! All the best my friend!
thank you
What advice do you have for a person who wants to learn how to draw 🤔 with digital tools 🔧 like Affinity designer and Ink Scape.
Hop in. Just get started to be honest. I believe Inkscape is free so you could start there. There are plenty of tutorials here on UA-cam. Give it a shot and see if you enjoy it. If so, you can consider getting Affinity and continue your learning utilizing a different software. I am working on numerous videos that cover basic drawing ideas for vector so those maybe of help as well. hope that helps, and all the best with your art journey! It can be challenging but its very rewarding!

İs the app illustrator?
Its Affinity Designer. Its a one time purchase no subscription which is one of the main reasons I use it, plus being able to draw and sketch in the same app as vector is great! Thanks for watching!
@@njvalenteart thank you
Hi, Nick! I hope this comment finds you well in body, mind, and spirit. I hope you got through the recent hurricanes with as little fuss as possible. Good video! I always enjoy watching your art come to life. I liked your comments on the creative process of not getting attached to initial ideas and to be willing to change when a better idea appears; it's something I need to practice. On a more technical level, I really need to check out the pen tool in Photoshop - it could be very useful for some of the work I do for one of my day gigs. Questions, comments, ideas, etc. are welcome. Best Wishes, my Friend! Your Friend, Russ
Hey Russ! Sorry I just now saw this! Yeah we all made it through ok. Great, I'm glad you enjoyed it! Its an incredibly powerful tool, you'll see how useful it is once you start using it. Thanks for watching, all the best my friend!

Hi, Nick! It's Russ Gartz and I hope this comment finds you well in body, mind, and spirit. Due to my work schedule, I had to miss the livestream, but the reply was a nice thing to come home to at the end of a workday. Great video! I always like watching how you do shadows and highlights, especially the way you do subdued highlights, good job! My suggestion for tutorial is video on color theory; that would be cool. Questions, comments, ideas, etc. are welcome. Best Wishes, my Friend! Your Friend, Russ
@@russgartz5022 Thanks so much for watching! I'm working on streaming other days as well. That's my favorite part as well especially the shadows. Cool color theory seems to be the most popular so I'll be working on that. Thanks again and all the best my friend!

4 mins in and the music is very distracting.
Yep still trying to find the right playlist. I will turn it down a bit for next time, its just nice to have something in the BG when I'm not talking about the process.
Thanks!
And thank you so much for your support! I really appreciate it!
Hi, Nick! It's Russ Gartz and I hope this comment finds you well in body, mind, and spirit. I hope Hurricane Helene was not too troublesome for you. Cool video! I like seeing anything with Affinity products as I use Affinity Photo for astrophotography in that it has an astrophotography stacking functionality. I want to keep my astrophotography in one program (I still need to learn in Affinity Photo how to dodge and burn with layers as I do in Photoshop) so any information about Affinity products is very valuable. I liked the shading parts of the video best and my votes for future videos are tutorials on light/color theory and shading - those would be cool! I'm looking forward to more of your videos! Questions, comments, ideas, etc. are welcome. Best Wishes, my Friend! Your Friend, Russ
Hey Russ, thanks for the comment! My family and I managed ok. I still have to learn more about Affinity Photo myself, but that is really great they have that feature built in! Very cool, the shading is my favorite part as well, it really brings everything together. I will be working on those for sure, I appreciate your feedback. I hope all else is well with you!

But the recording was a nice thing to come home to. Cool video! My favorite parts are: the hat details, the shadows on the leaves, and the beams of light. I'm going to have to investigate the pen tool as I may have use for it in Photoshop with some projects I have coming up. My suggestion for character would be Revy or Dutch from "Black Lagoon," one of my favorite amines. Questions, comments, ideas, etc. are welcome. Best Wishes, my Friend! You Friend, Russ
Hey! I'm doing well, I hope you are too! Hope work went well. Thanks a lot for watching, the final details really did it for me and made it pop. Great suggestions too! I'll have to add them to my list. Thank you for your continued support my friend!
Love the videos so well explained, I am new to affinity and used A. illustrator for years, I would love to see how you do your vector process on top of the pixel layer. Do you have a video on that?
Thanks and glad it has been helpful. Ever since I made the switch I haven't looked back. There are several you can watch, this one gives you the basic approach, ua-cam.com/video/cPQ59xIXuf0/v-deo.html and then there are a couple of recent live streams that show the whole process. ua-cam.com/video/RouXON0XAQs/v-deo.html and ua-cam.com/video/1MhnsLNLkA4/v-deo.html and here is the full tutorial playlist withe more videos as well, ua-cam.com/play/PLf_Uzyh0zNlOrxAramuRmKvCpOEMoXObZ.html&si=U2tvbdQE05dOxoda I hope that helps and thanks for watching, I appreciate your support!

My question is how do you make Pixel Persona Default
It doesn't seem like you can. You'll have to just switch using the icon at the top left. You maybe be able to set a keyboard shortcut for it. Thanks for watching!
@@njvalenteart much appreciated definitely subbing, I think you're the only one making illustration videos with Affinity Designer 2, if you could whether it be a course or something we need a 1hr -3hr lesson from beginner to master for drawing on Designer 2
@@holdthetruthhostage Thanks, I really appreciate that! That is an idea I have been juggling back and forth. Its on my list of videos to make, its definitely something I'd like to do. Thats what I have tried to do with some of my live streams, and that could be the way we go. Thanks again for your support!!
@@njvalenteart im watching it my issue is you didn't share how you got that ruler around the images because when I place my image it's in the dark unseen aspect of it. Gonna Finish the video as best as I can but when making tutorials every step counts my friend thanks
@@holdthetruthhostage I thought it was set by default I have had it on so long. Under view, click on show rulers. You'll be all set. Thanks for commenting!
Super helpful video for all noobs. Curious if you have a good way to do drop shadows on these types of shapes to show depth on overlaps.
I'm glad you found it helpful! I don't have any particular tips for these specific shapes. I do have a video on creating drop shadows though that might help. ua-cam.com/video/dooIrvhCPiA/v-deo.html Thanks for watching. I appreciate your support!
This method is so time consuming. It would be helpful if Affinity had mirror symmetry tool like Inkscape has.
It would be a great feature!
Ok so if you are using the FX tab in affinity, how are you able to export the file as a pdf, as it doesn’t work, everytime I try to export a affinity designer document with fx components on layers it ALWAYS exports a fuzzy pdf, ever what I see on the screen! Makes the hours of work I’ve done completely pointless, can’t export as png or jpg as it pixelates despite being the right size and 300dpi even thought it’s a digital file, I’ve tried all files, such, tiff, png, jpg, svg, pdf and every single one exports blurry and massive files, I’m totally stuck and no clue how to export what I see on the screen.🤯
Hey. This can be tough and I'm not sure I have the answer, but here is my experience and what I know so far. When I do export logos with those FX, I have to rasterize the FX or the layer, by right clicking and then selecting rasterize. It will no longer be a vector element so you have to export at size. As far as the blurry PNGs and JPGs, if the actual size of the file is small, say 64x64 pixels, or 100x100 px, it will be blurry even if exported at a higher DPI. It is frustrating and I have not been able to find out exactly why. But when exporting, you have to uncheck Allow JPEG compression and under the Rasterize pull down menu, select Nothing. If the size is small, you can try doubling the pixel by pixel size and see if you can get it to export without blur. Here is a link to the Affinity forum where they talk more about this issue: forum.affinity.serif.com/index.php?/topic/35497-exported-png-jpg-are-blurry/ I hope this helps, I know how frustrating this can be, I have to tell new clients I only export certain types of files, because a lot of the FX and layer options don't translate to Adobe Illustrator which all print companies use. Let me know how it goes, good luck!
@@njvalenteart thank you so much for replying. You have helped me to confirm for certain that it is my fx in affinity designer - specifically, shadows, embossing to look like a button, outlines and anything basically applied to a layer from the fx menu! Export as you said remove jpg compression and rasterise nothing and hey presto sharp and perfect….well minus the tab shadows, the text shadows, the page shadows, the button embossing and 2 buttons, the fx on a element where the fill of the text is re,over leaving just the embossing - all that is totally gone. Add in rasterise unsupported and hello fuzzz! So now I know it’s not me it’s the program, imaging having elements you can’t export but show fine on the screen! Not amused, so affinity designer is no good for creating the image files for the master slides where I want to use shadows etc for tabs the others I’m sure I can work around. So can I ask, where do you design the images to use as master slides in whatever it is you use to assemble your planner? I was going to try doing them in keynote or affinity designer, but the same issue in affinity publisher and keynote pallete are nasty! I appreciate the advice I now know why but not where to go from here!
@@PhoenixCreationsKaTyJs You're welcome, sorry its not a full proof answer. I'm glad it fixed the blurry image issue though. It is very frustrating, and wish it could be resolved. To be honest I don't make master slides so I'm not totally sure. I typically export as PNG with transparent background to keep shadows. Not sure if that is an option for you. Best of luck, I would be interested to know what you come up with.
@@njvalenteart thank you - I did try that too but each time the result was blurry - no clue but - that is worth a try if “compress jpg” is a option on the export. Even if I didn’t do master slides I can’t see how it would work as when exporting as pdf for the end result it wouldn’t keep any fx as pdf is apparently a vector and vectors don’t do shadows etc - which I didn’t know - I always thought things woudlnt be there to use if you can’t export them to use - it’s rather odd!! I need to figure out how to export to retain quality and things like shadows! It shouldn’t be that hard to do! If you can design it on screen with an app then surely you can export it to use! I saw a utube video of a user creating a planner in affinity publisher and exporting with shadows etc but they were using an Apple mac not a iPad - so the question still is how! I must be missing something simple! Thank you for your help it’s really appreciated. 👍🏻😄
@@PhoenixCreationsKaTyJs I certainly know how frustrating it can be. Like I said I limit what I can do for clients because of the export functionality. I need to do a deep dive into the Export feature to see if there isn't a work around for some of this. To your point, if you see it on the screen, why does it not export that way? You might be able to see what they checked or unchecked to export and see if you can replicate it on iPad. Sorry again I don't have a solid answer for you. All the best moving forward. If you ever have any other questions I'll try my best to help.
Its oscar from fn
thanks for the simple clear video. Question: How do you undo the erase in method 1?
You're welcome! For the first method using the pixel eraser, you can select the mask in the layers and simply delete. You can also right click, release, and then delete that layer. Hope that helps, and thanks for watching!
@@njvalenteart thank you for your reply, but I am wondering how to go back later to the mask and bring back only a little bit of something that was "erased" sort of like when you paint back to erase on a regular mask and white to bring back. thanks
@@rosebeane708 You can manipulate the mask by selecting the mask layer itself, switch to the paint brush tool and select white in the right menu, and draw over what you want to bring back. The brush you select for the paint brush tool will determine the effect you get, blended, vs. sharp edges. Hope that helps!
@@njvalenteart hi there, and thank you for your reply. I did try that and it did not work. I am not sure what I am doing wrong. This is with vector lines.
@@rosebeane708 Hmmm, interesting. Are you in the Pixel Persona? You can only edit the mask layer in Pixel Persona.
thanks
You bet!
my godness thank you
You bet! Thanks for watching!
You have good information to share, and you present it fairly well. If you don't mind, I have three suggestions to make your tutorials even better than they are: ►1. Use the LIGHT Mode for your interface. Yes, I realize it is "cool" and "modern" to use the dark mode, and most people use it because that's the default in Affinity and they want to be cool, too. But it is MUCH harder to see than the light mode, and thankfully, Affinity has provided us with the capability to change that. So you need to decide whether it is more important to you to look cool or to allow people to see what you're doing more clearly. ►2. NARRATE EVERY Keystroke and Button Click. In this video, you only narrate the keystrokes and button clicks you think are important, but you do a lot more inputs than you tell the viewers about. Whenever you do anything on the screen, you need to verbalize what you are doing. This will make your tutorials much easier to follow. Yes, it will be redundant at times, but if you do not do this, I guarantee you will leave some viewers scratching their heads, wondering what you did. ►3. ZOOM IN to the area of the screen where you are working. This is particularly important when you are doing something on one of the studios or control panels. You need to zoom in to have that work area fill the entire screen. This will make it much more apparent to your viewers exactly what you are doing and where you are doing it. I believe if you will make these three changes to your tutorials, you will increase their effectiveness by orders of magnitude. Thanks for providing these tutorials and keep up the good work.
Thanks for watching and thanks for your very thoughtful comment! This is one of my first videos, since I do use more narration for the keystrokes and zoom ins for important features. I am always trying to add more and find the right balance, so people can get the most out of the tutorials. I'll keep that in mind as far as light mode, for creating videos. I simply prefer the dark mode, it tends to be easier on my eyes for the hours I stare at the screen. Thank you very much again for your support, all the best!
Hi, Nick! I hope this comment finds you well in body, mind, and spirit. Cool video! I liked the black background with white lines, it looked great. I can't wait to see more of your work! Best Wishes, my Friend! Your Friend, Russ

For one of the methods I show in the video, you have to be in the Pixel Persona, to be able to use the eraser tool. It is located on the top menu bar under File. It ends up creating a mask over the vector lines. The second method I share is how to cut the vector shape out permanently. I hope that helps, thanks for watching!
Thanks for this vid, theres not many like it.
You're welcome and thanks for watching! I have more like this planned, all the best!

Hi, Nick! I hope this comment finds you well in body, mind, and spirit. I'm sorry I missed the livestream, but I had to work on Sunday. Cool video! I like how you did the horns and the eyes and the use of the snow pattern for the embers, good job! Questions, comments, ideas, etc. are welcome. Best Wishes, my Friend! Your Friend, Russ
Hey Russ, I'm doing well, and hope you are too! No worries, this was from a couple of months ago, I just uploaded it here. I like to do that so no one has to worry about missing a livestream. I appreciate that, its always fun seeing how I can push the various aspects. Thanks so much for watching and for all of your support!
