hello I'm Italian My name is Giovanni I love your tutorials (even if I don't understand English) thanks to the subtitles it continues like this completely fans greeting from Italy
I am facing a few issues with this, when I click create, the dots appear on half for the underlying circle, also in a rectangle, it doesn't go till the end border of the rectangle, but ends a little before, that messes up the final size of the image. What am I doing wrong?
Thanks, and let's solve this. If the dots appear on half the circle or they don't fill up the whole rectangle, I'm guessing it's a scale issue. Two methods that could fix this. First, you could try making the original object that gets cloned bigger. That may change the overall look though. The better solution might be to increase the Rows x Columns numbers. This will help fill up the underlying shapes. Can you let me know if either of these (or a combination) work? Thanks again!
I knew I could rely on you Rick to solve my halftone colour blend failings. One again I come back to your 'great reference library' of tutorials. Keep up the good work..😲10k😲 views since I was last here. Awesome mate. 👍🐺👍
Thanks!! The new Inkscape 1.2 version has a new built in tiling tool that makes this technique way easier. I did a quick run through on the 1.2 video because it was such a highlight to me.
Great question. I've since updated this video, and with the new method it will be easier to separate the colors. Its done by clicking Split Elements on the Tiling menu. ruclips.net/video/EpHi2_5hTdY/видео.html
Another great video, thank you so much. I think if you take one of those gradients and use it as a mask on the image, you could use opacity instead of color for the effect.
I just found this tutorial and thank you so much for all the work you do!! I have a question. When I try to clone my square there is no separation. They are all so close together, it looks like one giant square. Is there a setting I need to change? Using version 1.3 TIA
Nice video. Other videos refer to frequency when doing half tones. Do you know what the would be in Inkscape? I want to screen print using a 110 mesh, not sure how to do that. Thanx.
Great tutorial! I have a question though. Can I manually create a tiling and trace it over an image, since some complicated tilings cannot be done with the "Create Tiled Clones" tool?
This is really helpful, thank you. I'm binge-watching your tutorials at the moment, and learning so much about the potential and power of Inkscape for creating art that I never even realised existed. Do you know of a way to turn a watercolour effect into a halftone, but with the dots changing colour over the image to match the watercolour design? I'm asking because I want to create watercolour designs to print on t-shirts, and DTG (direct to garment) printing doesn't handle transparency, which is rife in digital watercolour effects. So I was thinking that if I could convert my watercolour wash designs that I'm creating using Inkscape into halftones, that would be ideal. I'd love to see a tutorial on this if you know of way, or even just a pointer on how to use the Create Tiled Clones to achieve this result. Thanks again for all of your great content!
Thank you so much! Turning watercolor to halftime for DTG printing is a great idea to solve the transparency challenge. My instinct is to try Create Tiled Clones and go to the Trace Tab. You’d have to set the original clone objects colors to Undefined ( it’s the question mark icon in the Full and Stroke menu. Then you could set the Clone Trace to underlying image. There must be an easier way however.
@@IronEchoDesign I might have found a way, although I don't know if it's the best way. It looks like you can't trace by both opacity and colour at the same time in Inkscape. So I did one set of clones with size based on opacity, then a second set with colour based on colour (with the exact same number of rows and columns), and then used the opacity clones to mask the colour clones. I've only tested this on a small scale, but I think it might just work. Not sure if I have the processing power to do it on a large image though!
I'm really looking for a tutorial like this, thank you very much, your video is very helpful. I've tried like in the video but why when I duplicate there is always a gap between groups?
Thanks! Yes the gap shows up often. Inkscape actually added a new feature that makes these patterns much easier to create. It’s under Path Effects and it’s called Tiling. You removes gaps (or make them) with easy controls. I should do a video on it if I can think of something good to show.
I found that when i used mesh gradient with your trace settings, it didnt give good results. So I changed the trace settings to color and size, instead of opacity and size. And it seems to look good. Did i do it correctly?
Great question! Playing around with different contrasting colors will help find the best choices. Also some look great on the screen, but not as great printed out or on apparel. Best to experiment.
i found out today that if you change the Shift X Row to 50% click the alternate checkbox below on the left side. you get a perfect staggard halftone with tiled clones.
Nice. Are you using Inkscape 1.2? I saw they upgraded Tiled Clones and its super easy to make the hexagon pattern without all the math and settings. I'll have to update this video.
hmm its doing weird thing. I have no randomness, ftr, but it does less rows than i set. PS: just noticed, the same happens in your example. Seem to be related to where the clone original is located
I'm always amazed by your work. This is the most complete halftone tutorial I've watched.
Thank you so much! I really like halftones and was trying to show a few different looks.

Thank you very much!! Grazie!!
Love the hexagonal halftone pattern the best. Thanks!
Thanks! That's my favorite too.
Great work! Always happy to see more inkscape videos on RUclips. From a fellow New Englander
Thank you!! New England is the best!
mate, you're becoming my hero! thanks for sharing this knowledge! thanks a mil!
Haha. Thanks! I like that we can all learn together.
This is AWESOME.. You make it look so easy.. and it becomes easy following along with your instructions. You make by far the best Inkscape tutorials.

Thanks so much, Nik!! I love the work you're doing. Awesome stuff!
@@IronEchoDesign Thanks Rick, Should be posting the halftone creation on IG tomorrow. see you there.
Nice!! I'll be there of course!
ALWAYS AMAZING CONTENT. I HAVE LEARNT SO MUCH WITH YOUR TUTORIALS. THANK YOU.
Thank you so much!
cool tutorial, thank you for helping me learn inkscape 🙏🙏
Wow...clear and clean tutorial...
Thank you!!
I can't wait to try it out. Super cool!

Loved this one!
You can get some Pro looking signage assets for customers with that photograph trick!
Thanks! I just made a sign in a similar way yesterday. Always fun.
Wow! Great tutorial. My mind is now swimming with ideas! Thanks once again for a great video. ✌
Thanks!! I love that feeling.
Gold. Rick this is gold! Thank you so much.
Thank you!!
Had CorelDraw for screen printing. Think when I start back doing it. I'll be using Inkscape and Gimp.
Awesome Rick, so much to learn, thanks again for sharing
THANK YOU! I really enjoyed this video. The only problem I'm having is moving the underlying gradient out of the way...help!
Concise and very helpful. Thanks a lot.
Thanks! Inkscape actually did an update that makes this effect easier, but I still like this method.
Sensational.
How do I separate the colors?
Create different films to produce screen printing screens.
Great question. I've since updated this video, and with the new method it will be easier to separate the colors. Its done by clicking Split Elements on the Tiling menu. ruclips.net/video/EpHi2_5hTdY/видео.html
💯👌. Can't wait for tutorials on pop art 🤩.
Thanks for this one Rick.
Excellent explanation of such a great tool.
I can imagine using this lots in posters and 80s designs. 👍🐺👍
Thank you!! And, you read my mind, Nik. I'm thinking its time for some 80s retro throwbacks.
@@IronEchoDesign brilliant cant wait to see what you come up with mate.
I'm thinking of doing an over the top 80s design cliche poster. We'll see how it goes. Rad.
@@IronEchoDesign Sounds totally Bodacious Dude!
Haha. Totally.
Thank you very much! I learn very much with you! Continue ever because your job is wonderful! 🇧🇷
Thank you! I will keep on it, and thanks for the encouragement!
Incredible!!!!

Sounds like you did. Thanks for sharing, and isn't it fun to try out new techniques?
for the lion halftone, are we supposed to overlay both dark and light tones for best effect? or can we just use them separately
Great question! Playing around with different contrasting colors will help find the best choices. Also some look great on the screen, but not as great printed out or on apparel. Best to experiment.
1000th thumbs up ☝
A thousand thanks!! 🙏
Hey! How do you make halftone globes?
Please make a detail video on paint bucket tool
Paint bucket tool!! I'll try. That tool is not very intuitive in Inkscape.
Thx 😘
Thank you!!

Thanks! ❤️

@@IronEchoDesign oh yeah, I am using the 1.2. I have found the developer version pretty dang stable! Also love your stuff!
Thanks so much! I'm itching to switch over to 1.2 and try it out too.
hmm its doing weird thing. I have no randomness, ftr, but it does less rows than i set.
PS: just noticed, the same happens in your example. Seem to be related to where the clone original is located
Good call. I’ve noticed several quirks like this in a lot of Inkscape features.
Is this outdated? When I have opacity selected and click create nothing happens
i probably wont even need affinity with all the stuff this app has added (and making the UI not be soul crushing)
Lol never mind i found it 😂...
Thank you so much.
Thank you!
