Finally someone giving a simple way of using this software! Much appreciated

[@DetourShirts]

Glad I could help

[@drradon]

Super. So much going on in this app. Tutorials like yours really help having a reason to learn navigating all of it bit by bit.

[@DetourShirts]

Happy to help!

[@3polygons]

Amazing that you help people know Affinity applications, it is a very affordable and good software, and also, not a subscription. Great design, btw (I'm a designer and illustrator) :) .

[@DetourShirts]

Happy to help! I'm planning on doing some Illustrator tutorials soon

Thank you! Great teaching video. So many videos I have watched are so fast paced that it’s impossible to learn from them if you are a beginner.

[@rivergrrrl1256]

Thank you so very much for doing an iPad Affinity tutorial I really appreciate your tips. It looks really good with the pen showing where to go for tools better than the curser which can be hard to see when watching on the phone (even a larger one).

Nice tutorial. Please make more video about affinity designer tutorial on ipad. I really need it and already press subcribe button

More videos coming

[@cakie_0933]

That V random thickness in areas sent me crazy

[@DetourShirts]

True... I get that. I should fix it

[@alcoshirts]

And of course for those that don't use the mobile version of Affinity you can just draw them by hand with pencil and paper, scanning or taking a picture of the drawing and after that using the pen tool and shape and contour tool in the Affinity to recreate the design.

[@3polygons]

Exactly. Coincidentally, I just replied someone else here about how to go for it with a PC (and PS) :) .

[@alcoshirts]

@@3polygons weird coincidence 🙂

[@DetourShirts]

Exactly right... lots of ways to do it

[@justcallmeneb8025]

I would definitely use it for animal designs or maybe a tree!

[@DetourShirts]

Those sound great... hope you get a ton of sales from those

[@madebymisbah6802]

The way you were "painting"!!

[@DetourShirts]

Thanks... I think it's fun

[@sedeosazuwa7220]

Thank you for all your work, can you please do how to add jewelry on model in Affinity designer , someone did it on photoshop

[@DetourShirts]

That is a more Photoshop think but I'm sure you could do it

[@GelliElli]

Could you do another video like this with PC version and no drawing involved (:?

[@DetourShirts]

Sorry... I don't have a PC tablet that I could show and I believe Affinity Designer is just for the iPad and not PC tablets.... If you are talking about a desktop version and no drawing I could try that.... maybe use a font to start and then adjust.... Is that what you mean?

[@GelliElli]

@@DetourShirts Oh sorry, i meant desktop version with affinity! Warping the font to a shape like you said yes (:!

Great tutorial.. looking forward to more ipad tutorials..hint* hint*

More to come!

[@vishalsannyashi3187]

I'm so in love knowing this style of making designs. Thanks again. But just wanted to know if there's a way to do it on my laptop. It kind of feels hard making the curves using a mouse.

[@DetourShirts]

Yes you can! You could draw out the letters on paper and then scan it in... it's kind of tough drawing with a mouse

[@vishalsannyashi3187]

@@DetourShirts thanks again, I'll work on it right away, since I have a lot of designs which I need to get ready for V Day using this design style. Thanks again 😇😇

Great tips, Juna can you do this on Affinity Designer I if you have a image of a animal and you wanted to add a clip art like glasses on the image so looks natural. can you do that on Affinity thank you

[@DetourShirts]

Yes you can! I will make a video.... adding glasses on an animal

[@Leo-pf3cd]

@@DetourShirts Thank you Juna

[@bowreality1564]

Can you explain why pixel layer vs vector?

[@DetourShirts]

Pixels are like little squares making up a picture..... vector is a mathematical shape made with lines and fills

[@lizzieb4963]

Love learning this- would it be easier to import fonts from Procreate and warp into the heart? just wondering?

[@DetourShirts]

Yeah... fonts may be easier

[@liendy20]

Thanks for the tutorials..there is any different from ipad version to desktop?..i owned ipad infinity..does the ipad version is enough to design?

[@DetourShirts]

Yes it does.... it a little different but just as powerful

[@APalavraIlustradakids]

What brush did you use to sketch?

[@DetourShirts]

I think I used one of the sketching brushes.... either Procreate Pencil or Narinder Pencil

[@ColdChills01]

Can't wait til they make it available for Android 😭 and Procreate on android

[@DetourShirts]

It would be cool if they did

[@ambienceentertainmentprodu7905]

@Juna Is Affinity Designer compatible with both iPad Pro and iPad Air? Which one you're using?

[@DetourShirts]

I'm using the Pro

[@nassimakhl784]

How make this designe with Photoshop pleeeez

[@3polygons]

Not complicated :) . The main thing here is the drawing, as you can see. Then he proceeds to use vectors over the sketch so to get clean and regular lines. You can do the exact same thing using the Photoshop PEN tool. The key handling such tool is knowing the several things it lets you do when holding alt, shift, ctrl or combinations of those keys. But it can be done even without them (it's just slower). But the procedure is the same : you make a rough sketch , and then you go tracing over with the vectorial pen (photoshop has one), handling as well the bezier nodes and its handles to get smooth and clean lines. The thing is, he is counting on a fabulous iPad (surely pro, but the standard iPad of this years works withiPad Pro 1 first Apple Pen) to make the initial sketch. You could do this sketch with a tablet (and a computer) that costs around 83$, the XP-Pen deco 03, or cheaper, the Deco 01 V2 (not V1). Ideally the 130$ Deco Pro MEDIUM. if you cannot afford a tablet right now... That sketch can be PERFECTLY done on paper!!! Totally. Just grab a pencil and an eraser and do your sketch. Once you are happy with it, you can use ANY home printer to scan it, as all printer nowadays (or almost) come with a cheapo scanner that is much better than doing a photo with a phone. BUT... if u don't have even that... use a phone! If you can set something (like two piles of books) to set the phone *PARALLEL* and *steady* while it makes the photo (so, ideally use the phone timer's feature!!). This is a quite good way to make a "accurate enough" of a sketch if cannot afford a printer (or a standalone scanner). And someone in your family surely has a phone, or some friend (prolly also a printer). With your scanned drawing (as a PNG, better than JPG, specially for line drawings, but JPG is totally fine too), or photo from the phone, import that file into Photoshop, and trace with the pen tool like he did here, just knwoing Photoshop pen is slightly different. Once you have a shape formed for a letter, you can right click inside the shape, and "convert to selection", then shift + F5 (or top menu Edit/Fill, if I am remembering well rn) to fill it with a color. Or top menu EDIT, then "stroke" to make instead a line contour. The pen tool can also have automatically a line width, or no line width but a color fill, or both. It's up to you. I just prefer the "convert to selection" method, because then I can do advanced stuff with selections, but that's me ;). I told this from memory, as also have been not using Adobe tools for a while, but always used them in the company jobs. Currently I work mostly with Affinity Designer, Affinity Photo and Affinity Publisher. Each one is around 50 bucks (and u don't need the 3 of them, surely) and not a subscription like Adobe. Affinity is just normal purchase, one time payment for a permanent license. But if my mini PS tut here is not exactly so in every step, is very close, or in "the essence". You should be able to do this heart-text design in PS, with patience.
