What you'll learn

Students will learn all the tools necessary to take their sketches and turn them into finished professional looking vector artwork.

Requirements

You will need Affinity Designer installed on your PC or Mac (iPad coming soon!)

Description

Creating art is fun and your online courses should be too.

In this light hearted course I teach my zombie friend how to break down a complex poster design into small easy to create chunks just like the pros do. We learn all the tools you need one at a time by actually creating art with them and adding them to our poster.

By the end of this course you will be able to turn your sketches into professional high quality vector illustrations that will blow away your friends and family.

About Affinity Designer

Affinity designer is a fairly new program but is gaining traction fast due to it’s deep feature set and its place as an inexpensive Adobe Illustrator replacement. It is available on bot Windows and on Macs.

Affinity for iPad

There is an iPad version of this course available here on Udemy. Search for "Vector Drawing on the iPad with Affinity Designer". If you're using the iPad I would recommend that course over this one, the interface is much different.

Who this course is for:

Beginners who want to learn how to make digital art
Adobe Illustrators users who are looking for an inexpensive alternative

has been using inkscape so far. Its a wonderful competent tool and I've done a ton of projects on inkscape. So learnt about a almost free platform called affinity. anything without a subscription is free for me. Hope to master things perfectly from an experienced tutor. Let's see how it goes.

Hi, I’m Brad. I’m a professional graphic designer and Illustrator.

I’ve published comics, run conferences but what I’m best known for is running a Youtube channel where I talk about technology for illustrators. In that time I’ve published reviews on everything from the Surface Pro to the iPad pro. And everything in between.

I believe drawing and illustration is a journey, we are all constantly learning and getting better and I blog about that on my channel as well. I think anyone can learn to draw all it takes is practice.

It’s never to late to pick up a pencil and start learning.
