Sorry guys... The trend credit is trademarked... I should have looked into further... GREEN JACKET is trademarked... not sure how all of those shirts got through and got sales.
Juno! I been following your videos for a while BUT today got approved for Amazon Merch ........ I’m so happy! Thank you so much for the inspiration. Let’s go!
I love how you said if you haven't used symbols before, don't worry, we will use it today to comfort someone who is afraid of not getting it right lol. I finally was able to create my first mandala with your tutorial. So exciting!!!
@@DetourShirts my next question in order to upload tshirts on Amazon, do I need a EIN first to register? I am making sure I have 10 designs first before I start :D
this is by far the best tutorial explaining this method in AD, and I have been looking around TH-cam for maybe 30 min now trying to find something clear, followable, and with someone talking explaining well along the way! Thank you a lot :)
WOW!!! Your DIY mandala is awesome - thank you so much for sharing Juna. Used to use inkscape and since 2 weeks enjoying the AD. The power of symbols in AD is incredible. Thank you Juna!!
Thank you so much for this tutorial! I make mandala art by hand using paint. This is such a blessing to find and I JUST purchased Affinity Design so this is perfect! Thank you, thank you, thank you! Your channel is fantastic by the way. I'm learning so much.
Thank you so much for a great tutorial. I am pretty new to Affinity but super excited byt the possibilities of symbols as I love repetitive pattern designs. Fabulous.
OMG I managed to get this to work in the new affinity designer 2 on a iPad Pro and it’s my first time seeing, using and touching the program yesterday!! ❤❤
Excellent tutorial Juna! I am new to the Affinity suite of programs but am intrigued by the mandala capabilities in Designer. I am so glad I found your video! A few of the others I watched were not NEARLY as detailed, well-paced, etc. as yours. I would love to see a video like this one, only using the Designer iPad program (hint, hint 😊). For some reason I think it would be easier to draw using it. But I am going to practice with the Windows version, and your instructions, and see what I can do. Again, thank you and I'm sure I speak for everyone else how much we appreciate your taking the time to share your knowledge with us!
@@DetourShirts No worries, you are doing great! I just selfishly threw that idea out. 😊 But do know that they (iPad videos) will be much appreciated when/if you get the time to make them. I tend to usually use the desktop versions of most of the software I use, so I get a bit lost in the iPad versions sometimes. Again, thank you for sharing your knowledge and expertise to help the rest of us learn! 😊 Take good care!
This was awesome thank you Juna. I have actually been hand drawing my own mandalas from an energetic, spiritual type perspective and they take a looooong time. Your video was fantastic to show me how to do it in A.D. (which I have used for years) and may help me produce some fast designs in between. Thank you :) x
So far I have avoided using Affinity designer, as I am comfortable and confident with Affinity Photo. Your tutorial was inspirational for me, as I would like to use both in my artwork. Thanks I will certainly try what you have demonstrated.
Really helpful. Thanks. For a single color plastisol heat transfer, what line width would be the minimum for clear printing? Would 3 or 4 pt be too small?
@@DetourShirts I've been wanting to do mandalas for a while but the other tutorials I found always left me stuck at some point by taking a step that was too quick or too difficult to see. This is the first one I could follow through to the end so a big thanks!
Hey Juno, Thanks so much for this, it's heaps of fun! Just one question.. When I draw in my 'slice' Im getting a mirrored version off the artboard. Any clues to what Im doing please?
Awesome video. I have watched many times and followed precisely. However when I start drawing with pencil do not mirror. They do reproduce on one side of spoke all the way around. What may I have missed. Is there some setting I need to reset. Thank you Juna.
Great video lesson. Just wondering why my snapping is not recognizing the strokes of my star lines? Also curious if you use a track pad or mouse? Thank you for your lessons.
Hello Juna! I can’t get my rectangle to snap to the star lines either! I tried playing around with this for a while but I’m stuck. Are there any settings that could be causing this, or could it be the size of my rectangle? Thank you!
This is absolutely amazing! Thank you so much for sharing this, Juna! 🙏 However, I somehow can't move the circles like you do and when I try to color some element, it colors the entire artwork. Do you have any suggestions what I might be doing wrong?
Thanks so much for your video, so helpful! just got one question, how can i turn into the end mandala file into multiple layer so that i can cut it and resemble them together
Can you please explain how to start with the two art boards you have set up? I see them in your layers panel when you start the video - but I don’t understand how you created them or how they relate to one another. Please and thank you!
Yes I can... So you can make extra artboards by clicking on the artboard tool on the left and then clicking on Insert artboard top leftish... keep clicking insert Artboard to get more artboards.
@@DetourShirts Thank you! I did set up one artboard 1000x1000 px, and was able to duplicate your process. Thank you! I just was confused that you started with 3 art boards already in your layers. Threw me off a bit. :) But I'm good now! Thanks!
Thanks so much, Juna! Your explanation is so clear and easy to follow. I am not a designer, so I'm just starting to learn AD because of all the great reviews it has got. But I must tell you: everything was going great until I clicked on the pencil tool and started drawing... nothing happened, no repeating effect appeared. I wonder what I'm doing wrong. I know it's been a year since you posted this video, but, can you help me, please? I'll try and watch otther mandala-creating videos, anyway. I use a PC, by the way. Thanks again! Greetings from Mexico City!
Quick suggestion, please say the Windows shortcut when you say the MAC shortcut as well for those of us on an PC if you can. Otherwise, I find your tuts to be super helpful. Have you produced a full course yet?
Once again sir, you bring it! I so appreciate your tutorials. Mandala in AI is so much more work. This is great! Thank you for all you do. I'm currently trying to design mandala animals soooo.... any tips on that? A tutorial to follow this one? 😉
More to come! Madala animals would be cool... I think you could make a bunch of mandalas and mask them in the shape of the animal... that's what I would do anyway....good luck
Thanks for this tutorial, Juna. I think I may be doing something wrong. I have all the same settings as you, but when I start drawing with the pencil from the inside out, my "loops" are filled with the red gradient. If I turn the fill to WHITE or remove the fill, the rectangles are also emptied of color.
Is there an easy way to evenly space numbers around a round object? Specifically, I'm looking at numbering the days of the month around a Habit Tracker Wheel.
@@DetourShirts I've managed to do it manually, it doesn't snap to the line for some reason, it only does a 15 degree angle when holding shift, so I did it manually. It can go a little off, the distance increases when multiplying. Well anyway, thanks for the reply and for the tutorial, I've saved it as a template!
Thank you so much for this instruction. If I want to make say 10 different designs would I need to create 10 artboards? What happens when I export it and save it as a PDF in order to make a coloring book, will each design print on a different page? I also am having trouble with creating another artboard. I click on the little diagram, but nothing happens. I have Windows 10. Another question, is each artboard considered as a page?

I've been waiting for a tutorial about this. Thank you!!! Affinity is half price right now. It $25 - A great price. I love this tutorial. Great job.
Yeah, its a great deal. I've been waiting for the half price sale for a while and snagged a copy of Designer.
Glad it was helpful! Symbols is super powerful
Ultimate tutorial 👌 juno sir. Never seen before. I'm going to implement this tutorial. Thank you so much for another great content 🙏
My pleasure!
Awesome tips man. I can think of some more ways to make interesting mandalas using your tutorial.
Great to hear!

Not sure... sorry I don't use the plastisol heat transfer
I generally draw my mandalas in the Pixel Persona. I need to play around with this technique more often.
Pixel Persona works too.
Supercool, haven’t used the symbols, will try it now... great tutorial!!!
🔥👍🏻🙏🏻
Awesome! Thank you!
Ummm.... I’ve actually searched for how to make a mandala in affinity!! So happy that you made this video! I know what is on my to do list tomorrow!!✅

Finally got yours to work. It's all in the flip you pick. lol
Glad you figured it out.
Can you show us how to make snowflakes with this tool? I’d like to put pictures in the snowflake design. Wonderful vid! Such a powerful, simple tool.
Great suggestion! I'll see what I can do
Can we make just circle lines to color them later? Great videos.
Yes you can!

I have always wanted to know how to make these! I guess I'll be purchasing affinity designer.
If it only did that it would still be worth it.
Great video lesson. Just wondering why my snapping is not recognizing the strokes of my star lines? Also curious if you use a track pad or mouse? Thank you for your lessons.
Which ones? I have a mouse... not sure what's going on.... sometimes snapping is weird though

wowowowoooo! Thank you!!!!!

Sorry I did not see all your yet. Is there any clip show how to make pattern on Affinity design?

I destroyed the dots like you but it split into 2 balls, which setting should I set? Thanks for the advice.
Hmmm.... I haven't looked at this in a while...Sorry....I'll have to go back and see what I did and how I can help
I haven’t tried this yet. What’s the reason for the rectangles?
I believe they are just there do let you know where you are in the space and what will be repeating
this was more thrilling than any movie I saw this year 🤣
Woah.... Did you see Everything Everywhere All at Once.... that was pretty thrilling

@@DetourShirts ouw sorry! I just found out how!😁 you just Opent an New Door for me thanks😁😁
How do you color the inside of the mandala if you are only making strokes with the pencil tool?
color behind it
Great tutorial, but when I hold shift and rotate, it doesn't snap to the line of the star, which makes the circle not perfect. Any suggestion?
Sorry. The only suggestion I have is to try it again and follow each direction really slowly

How would you change the elements to transparent so that the mandela is just a line drawing?
The mandela is a a line drawing but you might want to expand stroke to color it better
hi-can't get the original symbol to snap to the star guidelines once I start copying them-is there a setting to make this work please?
I have enable snapping turned on btw-
Honestly, I haven't done this in a long time. I will have to go back and do it again. I'll see what I can do
how does this compare to procreate? i just bought that and an apple i pad
Procreate is more like photoshop but with a pen.... very fun
Just wonder how we can colour on the first Mandala.
I would make the whole thing an object... convert to curves... and then color it
@@DetourShirts i saw someone using pen tool to trace each blank area once again and to fill in the color. It was a hard job.
