As a newbie to affinity designer, this has been infinitly helpful. Thank you!
1yr later how's it going?
Pro tip:
When using the Pen Tool, don't just click for your first point if you're going to be making a closed shape. If you do that, you'll end your shape with a weird, janky connection rather than a smooth, seamless curve. Start your shape out by clicking and dragging from your first point so that when you complete your shape, it looks so much cleaner and more professional.
That makes total sense! How did I not think of that? I always had trouble fixing the jankiness after the fact. Dang
Thanks for the tip, mate! ;)
that's what keyboard shortcuts are for.
this is a great tip, thanks!
if I knew what is meant ? 🤷🏼♂️
The way you used shading with vectors is an inspiration. I also learned how to approach light and shade - thank you for your excellent tutorial.
Back here now... I just passed the halfway point... I just started from scratch... almost zero draw skills... your tutorials are thorough... it's advanced my draw skills... can't wait to fully finish this lil mushroom guy...
Update just finished it... it turned out awesome.
Your tutorial was great. Your drawings are amazing.
Thank you Danilo for this tutorial! I just moved from illustrator to AD and this helps a lot! keep posting more!
Me too I am planning on buying Affinity and this video helped to explain it in a practical lesson. I have over a decade of experience using illustrator, but I don't feel like paying those subscription fees every month 🤑
That simple Mushroom guy was not simple for me until I followed along with your video, thank you man
Just bought affinity photo. After seeing your channel, im getting the designer as well. Thanks for these contents.
This is a terrific tutorial! Thank you for going step by step and explaining - not just doing a speed art. Please keep doing these! Side note: perhaps use a few different background songs to break it up a little? and don't be afraid to keep them low volume and in the background. There were a number of times the background music got very loud all of a sudden. keep up the great work!
Now that's the kind of feedback I was looking for. Thanks, mate! I'll keep that in mind for the next one
Cheers! o/
@@DaniloFiocco I actually really enjoyed how the background music was. Having it repeat is less distracting than switching songs would be
Nono the sound is perfect ❣️
Some ratatat fibes 💞
This was amazing, and extremely helpful to figure out how to start using this program. Well done!
You are a master with this application. I've been using it for years and learned a bunch of new stuff from your video. The way you do the shading and the blur option is very helpful. Thank you.
Absolutely amazing. Thank you very much! I am on my way to becoming an illustrator, and this tutorial is one of the most comprehensive out there, and extremely helpful.
Wow, extremely enlightening and informative. I had no idea about the power of “Paste inside”!
My appreciation for designers just increased by 5000%. Amazing Tutorial! :o
for a pretty advance knowledge this tutorial is really well explained. I took Graphic design in adobes Creative Suite. They gave us a book with a computer and said good luck.. ha. i did a stealth jet as my first illustration. I could never accomplish the shadows as well as you did in this tutorial. Thanks for sharing!
i just purchased Affinity Designer, thank you for the tutorial.
i never even thought to use gausian blur to blend colors. thanks!
Out of the dozens of vector art tutorials, tips and tricks, speedpaints..
This one video has helped me significantly wrap the idea of vector art around my head so I can know a little about what I'm doing
Glad to hear that, Chojay! Keep it up o/
Thank you so much Danilo! I am an absolute beginner and thanks to your video I was not only able to recreate shroom guy, but I have learned so very much in the process and completed a couple on my own ❤
One of my favorite tutorials. I come back to it often.
Danilo, you are such an inspiration. I'm new to Designer watching you gives me hope.
Thank you so much for this tutorial Danilo. It was very helpful to see your process.
I only saw your comment about the new tutorial now an will definitely check it out.
I went through this to learn more about affinity and vector stuff, and I re-designed the logo of a dude I know from twitter. I'm quite happy with the outcome. Thank you for making this!
Wov!! You are a magician. Great great video. Thanks
Thank you so much for this tutorial! I've done a numer of very simple tutorials, and they were great places to start for someone who has not experience with digital graphics, but this tutorial filled a gap between simplistic and complex, showing/teaching what you're doing. Thanks again!
This was such a great tutorial, you packed so much into a relatively short video. I was able to reproduce the Mushroom Guy (pretty close), and I have never used Designer or know how to draw. I need to get a lot better with the pen tool, but It was a blast! Thank you so much.
Oh really! That's great to hear (read), Kathleen
Make sure to check the Capybara series, it's more thorough. The mushroom one I did in a rush. LOL
Cheers!
Impressive!
Fantastic tutorial. Well done Danilo👏🏻
The work flow is very simple but tedious... This tutorial is pretty much exactly what I needed. thanks bud
Thank you for this great tutorial, I can almost see your channel easily passing 10000 subs in just a few weeks, your art is absolutely beautiful.
Wow! Thank you so much, mate!
10k? That would be overwhelming! I sure hope so! Haha
Cheers o/
Lots of great shading and rendering ideas... especially with the eyes. And I even liked the background music!
I'm so exciting! My mushroom is dun. All day was studying your tutorial.thank your so much! regards from Saint Petersburg Russia

Thank you so much for your great video. I find it amazing how to make a 3D illusion by using the shading and highlighting effects in Affinity Designer. This Video can help so much.

This was a briliant tutorial.
Your channel with affinity designer is on a different lvl than other ones. Really amazing illustrations
Totally excellent stuff 👍👍👍
Wow! I'm a total newbie so not even sure what you are doing technically, but you showed me what is possible! I picked up some good tips, love the bit about the artboard, that really helped me. Thanks for taking the time to post, much appreciated.
This is great video. It's ideally paced, elaborate and easy to follow! Please keep this up.
Fantastic learning experience!!!
This is the most helpful tutorial I've seen yet for my beginner self! Thanks!
That was next level!!!!
Superb!! this is really the best AFD tutorial that I have found on the web so far. Danilo Fiocco you're a master of AFD. Keep up the good wonderful work.
Thanks for this. The shading & highlighting method you used wasn't what I expected, but I also don't know what I expected. I wish there hadn't been any jumps in any of the steps/processes, but this is so much better than most videos I've seen so far. Definitely going to check out the other one you linked to in your pinned comment.
More video like this for us beginners it really helps you are amazing :) keep on going you will get those 10 000 😀
Probably the best tutorial I have seen, Thank you!

Indeed!
"BE A SHORTCUT NINJA!" - that's my motto 😃
you are a very nice boy You have a mustache like me and you understand what your talking about. You are better than others I see on video often.
This is just so god damn good
Such a good tutorial. I illustrate occasionally (I started out as an illustrator and eventually became more of a designer so don’t draw much anymore) and actually forced myself to learn affinity by doing some illustrating for about a year. I use some of the same techniques ( i sometimes draw in paper. Sometimes use the pixel persona in affinity or sometimes just skip it) a lot of my illustration style uses basic vector shapes instead of drawing a lot so its a little more design oriented. I also often create different artboards but its just as progress in the drawing instead of for each step. I also dont create a version with just the flat colors which makes a lot of sense. It never occurred to me and ive been doing this a long time. Thanks for the tutorial. Some great tips i can use the next time i want to draw some characters.
Thank you! Great tutorial
Excellent tutorial. I learned so much about shadows and how to visualize them and technique all from this video. I could not recreate on my iPad because I couldn’t find all the tools. I would love to see the same video adapted to ipad.
Thanks! I’m with you that one, since I have a hard time adapting my workflow to the iPad version. I’m too shortcut-dependent. Gotta get ahold of an iPad keyboard to try it out though and see for myself. Who knows? Maybe then I’ll make a tutorial for it
Cheers o/
Excellent work as always! Totally have to try this method out one day :)
Wow! Amazing tutorial! My head hurts thinking about trying to recreate this 😂! As a complete beginner I'm going to have to watch this a good few times before attempting it 😬. Please keep making more videos like this. From my perspective, it would be interesting to see how you might change/add to the process to age this character (or others).
Thank you so much for sharing your tips and tricks. It is amazing how easily you transformed that image. I loved your video, it was clear, easy to understand.
Very nice work.
one of the best tutorials I've seen , splendid :)
This is an amazing tutorial! I love how I was able to follow alone so easily.
However when you made that arrow for the direction of light……. I just realized how much you actually know lol hahaha that was so fast!
Thanks Sabrina! :)
That's no big deal. It comes with practice.
And when it does, you feel like a ninja and it's awesome! Lol!
Cheers!
Love your work my firend, so glad I discovered you and following, please keep them coming.
A very informative and complete tutorial. One of the best I've seen. Danilo is an excellent teacher and has certainly delivered on this one. Thank you for this video and please consider creating more like these.
Excellent demo. I'm envious of your skill. Thanks for making and sharing this, it was helpful.
Amazing i can start my first illustration in affinity designer with this. Thank youu
Wish I knew your channel 2yrs ago when I first got AD I needed to draw fashion illustration I struggle sooo hard with my surface pro 6 and trying to work out how to draw shading, lighting my work just looked disgusting not how I wanted at all and having ADHD was even more frustrating in finding how to do such simple sketch/cartoons. got krita Still wasn't happy because something AD had krita didn't 😠😡what I'm saying is thank you so much for this tutorial super appreciate it learnt so much in just 1 video than Affinity site itself!!! 😁Thank you
Yay! Thanks! ! I’m glad I could be of some help.
I know what you mean. I’ve been there before. Frustration will come and go. If you work your way through it, you’ll see that there’ll be a moment when everything clicks and you feel amped to go even further 🙂
Cheers o/
Thank you so much. Awesome tut 👌
Well done! Thanks!
Great tutorial!
Superb. I love the way you teach us like a 10 yr old. So clear in approach why the steps were taken the way they were taken. Thank you.
If may i ask, can you please make a tutorial on how to pick and choose colors for illustrations. Color theory is not at all useful while applying to illustration without solid examples.
I’m glad you liked it, Venkata 😀
Here’s the thing. Since I’m self taught I never really got into color theory and whatnot. So I wouldn’t know how to make a tutorial on that.
But what I can tell you is - which has worked for me - that I pick colors instinctively and try them out until they “feel good”. Which may not happen at first. But the more you do it, the better you get.
I’m a practical person and not very patient. Just wanted to get my hands dirty and try stuff. It may not be as productive as having formal training but it’s fun as hell! 😀
@@DaniloFiocco could't agree more. my color choices was better before learning color theory :D . now I have to un learn that shit. thanks mate for the suggestion :)
I've learned so much! Thank you!🤗
I am learning a lot from your videos. You make the work experience very friendly and with fantastic illustrations. Thanks for sharing, bro!
Yay! And thank you Jorge for always giving us artists support.
I’ll keep ‘em coming o/
