How to draw scroll designs: The basics

[@SPONGEY7244]

I find myself coming back to this video constantly

[@mirandusdaniel]

Thank you for explaining the foundation of an intimidating and beautiful style of the baroque.

[@kenpeck5930]

I have never considered myself artistic beyond drawing squares and triangles, but with the help of this video, I can now draw scroll work in Inkscape from scratch. Thank you!!!

[@JanHendrikViljoen]

I am glad you found some benefit from the video. Keep drawing :)

[@ceciliapena3294]

Great info ... helps a lot. Thank you!

[@DorchesterMom]

That was super helpful, thank you.

[@savestheday258]

Excited to see the next video! I really appreciate you going into some detail on the subject and engraving in general. You'll rack up some views over time because there's really not much good info out there really besides shaun hughes vids and a few here and there by others but doing a small series of videos on different aspects is great. So thanks again and keep em coming!

[@JanHendrikViljoen]

Thank you. I have a series of design videos in mind. Tap the bell button to be notified when I post a new video on my channel.

[@savestheday258]

One thing I'm really having a tough time with is my shading. Aside from scroll design. I don't usually have a hard time shading other types of art but shading scrolls has been a struggle. If you ever get the time I'd love a good video on shading techniques and styles 😁😉. Thanks again for sharing your tips and knowledge of the trade. Much appreciated.

[@JanHendrikViljoen]

@@savestheday258 No problem. A shading video is already planned for the near future.

[@savestheday258]

@@JanHendrikViljoen awesome, Looking forward to it!

[@fandangofandango2022]

Wonderful Sir, Thank You.

[@jadied3111]

I'm currently thinking of some designs for embroidery and got inspired by the beauty of acanthus leaves. But when I start to draw them they look too awkward. This video really helps. Thank you. Will be watching your other tutorials

[@TheAaronGerenShow]

Thank you! Well thought out and well put tips!!

[@hannasophie1455]

Im amazed! Thank you for this gorgeous tutorial : ) Best tutorial í´ve seen so far : ) Thank you

[@rjackson6300]

I do embroidery, drawing my own designs and thus need this knowledge.

[@stickybarry4770]

Thank you for this, very clear and helpful !

[@CKCreationsKelly]

Informative video. I've been doing it wrong for so long😆. Thank you

[@ambroscustom]

thank you so much, sir, very informative.

[@racp9mm419]

@ 5:35 I actually enjoy that type of looking scroll wether “correct” or not.

[@teabagNBG]

nice

[@lexreerink8591]

Great lesson!

[@hojjatmohammadkhani1692]

Thanks master

[@sukumac9013]

Thank you

[@Alkritzm]

Thanks for the video, I still have a hard time seeing the leaf fold overs. Please do a video on shading of leaves and fold overs. Keep the videos coming, they are a great help to us beginners.

[@JanHendrikViljoen]

Thank you Alan. I have a shading video planned already. I will keep the fold overs in mind.

[@johnsexton4250]

I second, or third that. Thank you for these amazingly helpful videos.

[@khorshedmostafa6854]

thanks

[@LandonCider]

Do you have a video to describe how to shade these?

[@edumaldonado5059]

THANK YOU...GREAT !!

[@AMIRAMIR-vs9nf]

Thank YOU. Any more videos to the subject?

[@Burntheships02]

Great video, better than some I've purchased! Thanks!

[@julianaviegas9147]

Esse desenho também quero aprender.

[@redwinecustomfabrications8970]

I am a knife make and i am about to embark on engraving. How do you transfer your sketch on to the metal?

[@edumaldonado5059]

hi i m interested in a tier level 3, i really i m interested to see your tutorial . Can i see more tutorials about drawing also ?

[@Leannegtl90]

Thanks for this - can you explain why the S-shape would cause issues? I see a lot of scrollwork done with that shape and have practiced it quite a bit as well and I can't pick up any obvious issues?

[@mjlapasta]

What equipment are you using, I want to build out a studio but hard figuring quality brands for this stuff as a beginner. I only want to buy once. I've been making stamps for a year or two and want to do metal full on now

[@562JUNIOR]

💯💯💯

[@Adam-118]

Now that I watched this about 8 and a half times I've noticed that a leaf towards the end of the video resembles (from what I've come to understand) as a flare cut? Thank you again 😊

Una lastima que no tengas subtítulos en español

[@davecairns3391]

Not sure if it's just my phone, but the focus is terrible. Keeps pixelating badly and ruining the sharpness of the image. Good content though, and still picked up a few good tips.

[@edumaldonado5059]

drawing scrolls also*

[@AM1Mobley]

Think he meant to say "overstated"....

[@holyravioli5795]

Get yourself some french curves, makes scroll designing a breeze.

[@puddinpie9862]

work on making one single line instead of chicken scratching your lines in. i can see you have no issue imagining where you want your lines to be. now focus on trusting that you know how to make the line if one fell swoop. it will take your work to the next level

[@MasterEngraverTV]

I'm guessing you are not an engraver or scroll designer?

[@puddinpie9862]

Master Engraver TV I’m an artist learning to take my skills in art to engraving for custom knives. My tip comes from an artists perspective though, not an engraver. And I’d like you to keep in mind that I only wrote my comment the way I did because I felt you could see how strong your art work is on it’s own, with an artists mind, not an engravers. but when you lay the lines with a pencil, your art as a whole will improve with the more confident you are with single strokes instead of that scratching/sawing action we instinctively want to make before we learn the importance as an artist to have confident, single strokes for lines. I only want to point such things out so I can see you get better, because I like learning from your videos wherever possible.

[@puddinpie9862]

Master Engraver TV the better you get, the better we get.

[@jerrodbates8480]

@@MasterEngraverTV Some people havent quite learned how to learn just yet 😉

[@-MissNox-]

I‘m a little late to the party, but maybe it will give someone in the future a better understanding. I am also coming from a drawing standpoint, I guess that’s what that person refers to as „artist“. What you see in the video has nothing to do with chicken scratching, lines that are chicken scratching are unconfident, jagged lines that follow the form somewhat but arn‘t drawn following the direction of the shape and often are fragmented. What you see is sketching, the lines are confident, follow the correct direction, are smooth and non fragmented, they are so clean that they are nearly closer to linework than sketching.
