You have no idea how much I've learn from your videos. Thank you sir !

@DaTux91 6 месяцев назад

This is a really great tutorial. Just one point of criticism perhaps: your cassette isn't big enough to hold that much tape on the wheel 😅 Or rather: there is too much tape on the wheel for the physical space available in the cassette.

This tutorial is awesome! Instead of traditional lesson you teach with pratical approach! So fantastic!

Advanced tutorials like this are a great way to learn how to use various program tools in a single video/project

@Bob-of-Zoid 6 месяцев назад

This was groovy as always. I noticed you don't use any guides. I use them a lot, because I can align things to them without having to go into the align and distribute controls as often. I can add them as I go along and draw an object, add a guide or two on their centers, and align stuff to them where needed. For those who do not know yet: Even guides can be rotated, even to exact angles, then duplicated and manipulated much the same way as paths, but you cannot curve them. I also always start with one vertical and one horizontal centered to the page, so it's always there to make it easier to have the centers of bounding boxes and what not snap to to their shared center, or on center horizontally or vertically and off center to the other.

A cassette tape is 4 inch by 2.5. He set the rectangle size to 400 to 250. Nice touch.

Great tutorial again Nick! Learned so much from them. I recently made the same rainbow effect, but I did it by drawing the outer line of the rainbow with the pen tool, duplicated it, flipped it over and used the interpolate path effect to create the inner lines. It's so cool how many ways there are to achieve something in Inkscape.

Your tutorials are great man. I know it's difficult to talk while you work but you do a great job of it. And, on top of that being difficult, you're constantly describing more than one way of doing what you are doing while you do it. Incredibly skillful and helpful. Thanks for what you do!

@michaelsalais7393 6 месяцев назад

Excellent, Nick. I'm with you all the way.

@haresheranga 6 месяцев назад

Thank you nick. We need more of these kind of videos.

@FBarbarian 6 месяцев назад

Thanks for the awesome video. I noticed that on your original design you added a window glare effect that you missed here in the video. But I guess that adds a small challenge for the viewer to figure something out on their own.

@LogosByNick 6 месяцев назад

Yeah I realize I missed that part after it was already recorded and edited

@bim41337 6 месяцев назад

This really is such a great lesson. I'm always fascinated by how you're using mostly simple shapes and alterations to create such cool images and effects. I'm always asking myself how you come up with the way to get to your desired outcome.

@greasyfingergarage 6 месяцев назад

Just turn on your snaps, draw a rectangle inside the clear area, make it the size you want, click on it with the cursor to bring up the arrows, grab the horizontal arrow in the middle top or bottom to skew it, turn on a white fill and adjust the opacity down until you are happy with the look.

Clear tutorial Nick. As I know you also do Affinity Designer tutorials it would be great to see you do this one in AD as well. Inkscape was my introduction to vector drawing with V1 back in 2021. Have been using AD the last 2 years and reluctant to pay for the upgrade to V2 as I see limited improvements. Having just installed the latest Inkscape I see substantial improvements since last using it and am considering making Inkscape my preferred SVG program. Hence my interest in seeing the workflow difference in you doing this tutorial in AD, particularly the rainbow background. I did watch your video comparing these two products.

Hello, Nick. Maybe you could have more tutorials on three-dimensional text logos? I wanted to bevel mine for so long and yet I still don't know how!

forgot the glare on the cassette. other than that great video, love your content. i started my graphics design journey from your content

@SolidCapo 6 месяцев назад

The reflection i asume it was a simple rectangle on top with some opacity right? great tutorial! good to see your workflow :)

@isancreativedesigns9259 6 месяцев назад

Nice work Nick but I think you would be able to see the background colours through the tape content viewing pane. Also need a pencil to tighten the tape up ;-)

It's only been here a few months and I already don't know how I ever lived without it

@todj 5 месяцев назад

Thanks for the video. I think that using interpolate subpath + Path > Fracture would be an easier method for creating the colored stripes in the background. Also, the tape wouldn't fit into the cassette if the centers are placed like that (imagine how the roll extends in the hidden part).

This might be just a coincidence, and probably is, but I enjoy the fact that the very next video after I suggested using the transformation handles on the nodes tool shows off that feature haha.

You can select individual objects inside groups with Ctrl 🙂 Just saying because I see you ungroup them all the time to add color

great video altough not finish (you miss the glare). Keep going

@thecharismaticsoul6403 6 месяцев назад

Hi Nick, thank you for the attention to detail in all of your tutorials , I just have one question. I have followed each step carefully and at the 17:01 in the video when you are changing the rainbow to curved I do not get the “triangle” nodes that help me curve these lines. I am wondering if there is a setting turned off or what I did , please help!

@tanjagillissen7235 6 месяцев назад

Question.. if I go in the Tapeform the second time withpath effect interpolate sub path, the programm chooses a bit of the outerring. It looks very different that step, than what I see in the video. (I just downloaded this bew version)

@Valshero 5 месяцев назад

why the difference path function doesn't work when i work with the wheel thing?

@blueleto8652 6 месяцев назад

Very nice tutorial, thanks ! I have one question though. At around 1:48, you transform a rectangle into a trapezoidal by selecting the nodes and moving them symmetrically along the path. How do you do this with the mouse ? I know I can use the comma and period keys and there are few other ways to achieve the same results, but I guess there must be a way to do so with the mouse, I just could'nt figure out how.

@jakep.7826 6 месяцев назад

With your node tool selected, you should see an icon that looks like for 4 double-sided arrows (2 on top, 2 on the bottom). When you hover over it a pop-up message will read "show transformation handles for selected nodes." Click it to turn it on (it's off by default). Once that's on, click on the rectangle and then click and drag over the two top nodes of the rectangle. You should now see a little arrow sticking out of the selected nodes (it may be a really small arrow depending on how your Inkscape is set up). Click on either of the arrows sticking out of the two top nodes and drag it in while holding down the shift button. That should do it.

@blueleto8652 6 месяцев назад

@@jakep.7826 Thanks a lot !

@AshishKhetwal 3 месяца назад

can anyone tell me at 1:26 how did he drew the rectangle in such way that it doesn't cut the previous one when i do it the new rectangle just cuts the previous rectangle

@andrewray2507 3 месяца назад

Hey I noticed you didn't talk about how to add the glare on the cassette window. What's the easiest/most consistent way to apply an effect like that across shapes?

@Bing_Teavee Месяц назад

I'm completely new to this kinda stuff, I only downloaded inkscape today, but from following this through to the end, I found a simple way is to just make a rectangle, click to get the rotate option, use the middle arrows to skew it, then duplicate, make sure they're the same angle, then drop it down a layer. I had a few difficulties when colouring but it gave me more chance to play about with the tools and create more objects and layers etc. Hope this helps!

@Bing_Teavee Месяц назад

Oh I forgot to add you then reduce the opacity after choosing a suitable colour.

you have to much tape on the left side. that would never work this way. ☉ ‿ ⚆

@checksixivan4921 6 месяцев назад

Kinda fast for us to follow without having to endlessly slide back and forth…”lemme just duplicate this” - bam click boom you did something no idea what (scroll back to try to see your cursor zipping around)…”I’m just gonna ungroup this real quick” click click bang zoom no idea what you just did (scroll back again to see your cursor zipping around once again..ugh. I know you usually DO a good job of verbally stating exactly what you are doing as you do it, but this particular episode not so much…
