Create For Free
Великобритания
Добавлен 20 фев 2021
With professional software packages becoming increasingly expensive and many now wanting monthly subscription payments, why not take a look at some of the excellent free open-source alternatives available?
To start with I’ll be looking at Inkscape - a free open-source scalable vector graphics editor similar to Adobe Illustrator. That is perfect for T-shirt designs, logos, art for Cricut, digital art, etc.
The big difference between Scalable Vector Graphics (SVGs) and rasterised images such
as digital photos, is that SVGs can be scaled to any size with no loss of quality. The images are created from mathematical descriptions (vectors) and not from dot or pixels, so the same design can be used for a tiny icon or to cover a billboard.
If Inkscape is not what you’re looking for, then subscribe and check back in the near future as I cover more free packages for Video Editing - Animation - Audio - Screen Casting - Office Docs - Image Manipulation - Digital Painting - Desktop Publishing

Inkscape Portrait
Creating striking images in Inkscape, such as this abstract portrait of a girl with fire for hair, is fun. With Inkscape's array of different filters, you can experiment until you have created your perfect image.
In this video, I show you how I took a simple image of a girl's face and turned it into this firey portrait, with some simple drawing and the help of some filters, and blend modes.
I walk you through the whole process, step by step, showing you how to import images, use the Bezier tool, Spiro paths, add Blend modes and add a little artistic flare with the help of some filters.
If you’re not getting your filters to work for you, this video shows you the different ways you can tweak...
