I guess i am the first one to comment. Just to appreciate your good work , i have learnt a lot from your videos .. thanks man for being so consistent .
Amazing video! The width tool is such a powerful tool that I use a lot. Thanks for the tip to center the line at 1:22 , I didn't know this. Nice to learn from each other as designers. Keep up the great work. 😎
Hey I just wanted to say my first video ever was 4 yrs ago. I accidentally bought a Chromebook not knowing I couldn’t run illustrator. I figured out how to use Linux to run Inkscape. And I watched ur videos on Inkscape constantly. Since then I’ve not only “graduated” to Adobe but I’ve also built a fairly successful print shop with a lot of new equipment. It all started with Logos by Nick. And today I’m back watching a video by Nick about the width tool. Look the point is…. Thank You! Your videos aided in me changing me life as well as my family’s. So if you don’t know it your time spent making these videos is extremely appreciated. Have a good one! 🍻 cheers. (PS your the 🐐)
Great lesson with Illustrator. Learned a lot from you already, keep up the good work as usual and I will be watching. Gave you a like, comment and thank you.
Sorry Nick, I have to disagree with you, even though I really appreciate your work and don't know half as much about vector design as you do. I just tried it, it is very easy to do in Affinity Designer. You start with a circle, no fill, just stroke obviously. Convert to curves, use the pressure adjustment to make the variable width planet stroke, duplicate to make the orbit. Expand appearance and then it's literally the same workflow with the Affinity shape builder tool as with the Illustrator shape builder.

Love hearing stories like this! Congrats 🙌
Hi! why I can't see the handlers to modify the width once I added one point? help! thanks

finally, a video showing how to use width uniformly! i can make al this swirly but sometimes need to use in one section or all over.
Do you have this tutorial for Affinity designer?
It's not possible with AD unfortunately. The workaround would be to create custom brushes.
I was about to ask the same thing. 😅

@@sigibischof That's a good workaround, although not a complete replacement for the width tool. Thanks for sharing!
@@sigibischof make a quick screencast to demo?
Excellent 👌
I love you
