Hi Everyone,
I’m currently preparing a tutorial about shading in vector drawing. I just finished an illustration that I will use as a case study. There are still flaws but my main focus, the face, is OK. I used Vectorstyler but most of the advice and tips I’ll give could be applied to other vector drawing software. Coming soon on my Youtube channel. 😉
Hi Everyone,
Following my « Captain Eggplant » illustration shown in my previous post, I did a video explaining my process for drawing this vector illustration in Vectorstyler. There are some tips that you may find useful, some of them may apply to other vector software than VS.
Enjoy 🙂
This 4th tutorial shows the whole process of the isometric drawing of an ice cream truck in VectorStyler. It covers some basics of isometric drawing (snapping, extrusion…) as well as more advanced featured (symbols, automation, clones).
This tutorial about isometric drawing in VectorStyler deals with the accuracy. I often choose to estimate rather than being accurate, and I use shortcuts and simplifications as long as everything looks plausible and consistent in the end. But some people may need real accuracy because of their working preferences or because it’s a request from a client. In that case we need to use some more precise settings, that’s what this tutorial shows. It also covers how to automate some drawing steps with the Actions of VectorStyler (sometimes called « scripts » in other software).
Here’s another tutorial of isometric drawing in VectorStyler that gives different rules and tips, including the use of symbols and how to cut a sphere. Some of these information can be applied to other vector software as well.
The pace is way too slow, once again and my « globish » shows some flaws 😛 For the boring pace you can use Youtube’s features that allow to speed-up the player.
Enjoy 🙂

Hi Everyone,
I just uploaded a tutorial about perspective in VectorStyler. I use a similar method as previously showed in Affinity Designer, but thanks to the specific features of VectorStyler I can improve and speed up some parts of the process.
Enjoy!
This mini tutorial shows an adaptation of the « rubber band technique » in perspective for Affinity Designer users. It helps to quickly build a freestyle perspective drawing without too many visible construction lines that can sometimes be confusing.
This technique was used in my « old school » Sci-Fi scenes (e.g. here).
