If you want to learn more about how Inkscape works, I have a 50+ part video series where I explain all of the tools and features in Inkscape and demonstrate how they work. Here's the link if interested: logosbynick.com/inkscape/
thanks this is actually oddly similar to what I had in mind for my own business, at least to start off with and I can always change it. Thank you for this
"you know what? i know some ppl are broke. i knew i'm fully capable of what that guy made in illustrator. so i'm gonna go the extra mile and make something just as good on inkscape- all free of charge, for random people on youtube". thank you, Nick.
I have downloaded Inkscape on Saturday. Finished all tutorials of TJ on Sunday. And now doing practical lesson on this one on 4th day. I must say, cracking Inkscape is made easy by you NIck. Thanks for the wonderful creativity dose.
This is probably my fourth or fifth logo I watch from Nick, awesome, quick and to the point! Thanks Nick for making the complex artwork simple to understand...
I've watched two of your videos and learned more about inkscape than I have from watching about 2 dozen videos in the past couple weeks. Thanks so much for the help, as I've always been a paintshop/Photoshop guy!
well, I have to say , The best TEACHER is someone who makes you fall in love with the subject even if its damn boring, and yes u made me fall in love with inkscape.
great tutorial there Nick, really showing us what can be achieved with inkscape. There's not many inkscape tuts on youtube that are as well explained as yours and i look forwards to each new one. thanks for your time and commitment.
Incredible just how you could come up with those amazing logo ideas by just simply manipulating different shapes and colours...absolutely inspiring and stunning
Oddly enough I had something similar in mind for a logo I'm working on for my own business. I am gonna change the colors and the shape a bit and add some text but this was a huge help since I need to save as much money as possible for what I need to do and once I get more established I can change it if need be.
I am a big fan of your videos. When I first opened this application, I couldn't understand a single thing but your videos helped me learn this awesome open source software and now, I use this software daily. Thanks a lot. I like the way you show the keys you are pressing and the mouse clicks. I tried using carnac but it wasn't that good. It would be really helpful if you could tell which app you use for that. Hope you don't take it wrong.
Very creative form. I also manged to make something with myself in 2013, also on RUclips, video tutorial for Illustrator. Just type 3D logo! I think now that my video has just over 700,000 views. I am surprised because some people are now seeing for the first time. Luckily not violated the copyrights of authors! Please!
+Clever Mark Yes I saw it. I wanted to show people how to create the design in Inkscape, although you executed the design much better than I did. Great work!
Sweet! I saw that same Illustrator video. I love taking Adobe videos and making the same things as them using Inkscape and Gimp. This video was great. Subscribed!
I'm finding these videos extremely useful for finding nice techniques for making nice drop shadows and how to achieve certain geometries. Can you suggest any books or magazines which are useful for giving ideas for what to incorporate into designs? Great videos!
Thank you very much.... I am interested in learning graphics and your channel is helping me to pursue my learning with free open source software. thank you so much.
near the 14:38 mark, when you were talking about the space left over near the grey and blue... If you zoom in and click (possibly double click) you can adjust the edge of the shape i.e. pull a corner to the edge of the sphere without adjusting the entire shape itself. Hope thats clear :) (ver. 0.92.3)
+BEaSTFXbeatbox Thank you. Yes it's customize. I wrote an article outlining how to do the same if you're interested: blog.logosbynick.com/design/how-to-make-inkscape-go-dark/
I cant find the snap to custom nodes Burton on my interface and cant find custom in View? How do I do That? I Am using the latent version of inkscape. Thanks for an awesome tutorial.
Yes, as long as your designs don't violate anyone else's copyrights and/or are used as "fair use". But yes, Inkscape creations can be used commercially. I've made a lot of money using Inkscape :)
This is great video, but in my opinion @9:44 was the best this shape will ever be, you could have ended there. The reason is, @9:44 the blue spherical ball was looking like it is in the center of the outer shell. Unlike the final image, which it looks behind the shell. Thanks for your video, it is awesome, "just like that" XD
What version of Inkspace is this? I downloaded Inskpace 0.9.2.2 with totally different icons and screen display than yours. Please inform me. I like this SW.
Great work, I just started using inkscape and your tutorial was perfect to start to understand this software. By the way, Is it possible to create those stunning city skylines like the ones that pro designers create with Adobe Illustrator? A tutorial on that would be awesome, thank you.
Awesome job Nick! No need to apologize for "Sloppy work". It doesn't even look bad to me and I understand that if you were doing this on your own time as it were, you would correct the little stuff. Thanks for not obsessing -- for the video's sake. :) Thanks again.
Very, very nice. ...and one day I'd like to see a not perfectly round circle. 😉 I think a circle is always perfectly round, otherwise it is an ellipse.
I appreciate your tutorials VERY MUCH! Thank you. Q: I have an issue whereby whenever I open my Create Circles tool, the nodes are not aligned square (to top / bottom & sides). Is there a way to readjust the way the default has been altered? In addition to this, the right node is split to "open" the circle every time I open this tool, which has slowed me down quite a few times. Any input would be helpful. Thanks again!

You are incredible! This is literally giving me a headache. There are so many steps it'll take me 5 yrs just to create this on my own.

+ahmed deia Thanks! I aspire to put Inkscape on the map and start digging in to Adobe's market share 8)
wow! this was amazing. I'm actually a beginner and I haven't taken any classes, but it turned out pretty good. Thanks a lot
You are very good at explaining things! Thanks for including all the small tips in the video, too!

This is a fun way of getting really creative with shapes! Thank you!
I like the way you describe things to audiences

Sweet! I saw that same Illustrator video. I love taking Adobe videos and making the same things as them using Inkscape and Gimp. This video was great. Subscribed!
Thanks. Yeah I like showing people that Inkscape can do virtually anything Illustrator can.
Thanks, for making me realize I waste $300 on adobe illustrator and photoshop. Subscribed
for a beginner it is like revelation, thanks for an awesome tutorial.
Great video! I always learn something when I watch your videos, from now on I'm double clicking to add a gradient stop!
+Bob Blihovde It's definitely a much easier approach. I always knew about it, but didn't realize how much easier it is until recently.
yours is a little more 3d looking and theirs is just a little more polished...this was an awesome tutorial
I am learner. very inspired with your design skills. Thanks for the presentation.

Thanks

Now I know the technique, I need now the inspiration.
Had to subscribe. Great tutorials. Is your interface style custom? Can we get it from somewhere? Looks really good!
+BEaSTFXbeatbox Thank you. Yes it's customize. I wrote an article outlining how to do the same if you're interested: blog.logosbynick.com/design/how-to-make-inkscape-go-dark/

I love the interface you are using, I changed mine to dark as well. But how did you get the icons to be so colorful?
I downloaded and installed an icon pack called Numix Circle
That's really cool,Nick! Thanks.
Awesome tutorial
i love it, wanna ask if i may use your design and use it for my youtube vid?
Great! Pulling this with inkscape!
Wow dude... great video. Thank you
Nick , can you please do tutorial videos on Hitfilm 4 Express ? Like how to add motion graphics on videos and all.
hello...pretty good tutorials, maybe a little advanced for a Inkscape beginner but i'll try to keep up.
great tutorial!! A huge contribution.
+Manuel Garcia Thanks!
How do you get that little keyboard insert at the bottom left of the screen that shows the key sequence you push?
logo made on this software can be commercially used? I mean can I use the logo made on this software for my RUclips channel and monetize those videos?
Yes, as long as your designs don't violate anyone else's copyrights and/or are used as "fair use". But yes, Inkscape creations can be used commercially. I've made a lot of money using Inkscape :)
Fascinating. Thank you
Its a very very good tutorial👍👍👍
Which version of Inkscape are used in your videos?
Holy, that's beautiful!
+InnerTranquility Thank you
This is great video, but in my opinion @9:44 was the best this shape will ever be, you could have ended there.
The reason is, @9:44 the blue spherical ball was looking like it is in the center of the outer shell. Unlike the final
image, which it looks behind the shell.
Thanks for your video, it is awesome, "just like that" XD
+RebelliousX82 Thanks. You have a good point!
Gorgeous artwork.
Really great tutorials!
Thanks for sharing your knowledge

wauw very nice tutorial
WOW AMAZING love your stuff. definitely subscribe for me ! and cant wait for the next one
eres el mejor amigo de verdad eres mi maestro en esto
Very, very nice.

Using this same tutorial, can a cube be created instead?
