Hello designers and welcome to another Affinity Designer tutorial, Its beginner friendly! In todays video I will sketch out a cute cat in Pencil, then go over it with an ink pen, I will then take and import it into Affinity Designer. From there I show you how to trace an image (the cat) using the pen tool and then add colour to create a vector version. There will be lots of tips and tricks along the way and you will learn alot.


Affinity Designer V2 (2.4) Used in this tutorial.

I now have a SUPER THANKS button!!! So if you feel like buying me a coffee as a thank you, tap away!
