This is an unbelievably accurate recreation of a real life object in a vector design program. Easy and effective tutorial to follow along with, thank you so much for uploading quality content like this!
Let me just say that as far as outstanding instructions, you are amazing! The pace, how you explain each step, (with written shortcuts!), and WHY you use each tool, well, this is a tremendous help to those of us who don’t use AD often enough to remember what tools to use. So THANK YOU so much-much appreciated! And keep making these tutorials. Please?
Ha I love the feedback so appreciate every comment! Just remember if you are using anything in that FX tab, don't forget to tick the 'scale with object' box. If you don't and you resize let's say the spoon, the gaussian blur for instance wont look right.
It is an outstanding and clear instruction. I could follow and understood everything. Thank you very much sharing with us your tutorials. One of the best tutorials I found.
Very well and systematically explained in a normal English accent that one can easily follow. No unnecessary and erratic mouse movements. I have seen many Affinity Designer tutoriuals. Some of them don't even bother to speak. They just play some wierd music in the background, move their mouse (with a really small white cursor) erratically and expect us to follow. Well, not at my age. My only request to you would be to get a screen recorder where the mouse is highlighted and it emits sort of light waves when clicked. That way, we seniors will be able to follow your tutorials better. I have suggested this to many TH-camrs and some of them have implimented it and thanked me. I am now subscribed to you. I see that you don't have an interactive Facebook group where one can ask questions to the community and the guru (you) can step in every once in a while to give a final judgement. Best wishes from Australia.
Thank you Behram I appreciate your feedback. Yes I will look around for a screen recorder to highlight the mouse movements better. On occasion I do remember to increase the size of the curser but it's still not so visible. You are right I'm not active on Facebook. I don't really like the platforms pages so much but I've joined a lot of Affinity groups on there which is good. Thank you for your subscription and feel free to recommend ideas for new tutorials. Cheers
Really good. Been using AD for years & like watching all sorts of tutorials, you find different ways to do things, I did in this tute also. Keep them coming & thanks for posting.
Wow! I just learned how to use Affinity Designer! Been playing around with Affinity Photo for years now, and handling it pretty well not at least thanks to lots of tutorials on TH-cam. But I must say.. Man, this is _the best_ tutorial I have come across so far. And that says quite a lot! Thanks you so much!
Thank you. My design went wayhire during the spoon tracing. I need to do better in perfecting that. After that, it was downhill for him. Thanks for your video it was helpful. I will keep trying.
That's Wonderful Way Of Explaining I Have Ever Came Across. Thank You So Much From The Bottom Of My Heart. You Have Surely Managed To Convert A Simple Designer Software Into A Realistic Photograph. Hats Off To You. I Will Definitely See Your Other Videos As Well To Upgrade Myself. Keep Making It Will Be Really Helpful For Us. Hare Krishna And Namaste From INDIA🙏
Hello and thanks for watching, I love reading the comments so I appreciate that you took the time to watch and comment. Great to know where you are watching too! Take care and keep designing
This was FANTASTIC!! I enjoyed this so much and learned several tips. So glad i came across your channel. It’s hard to find content creator who do Affinity Designer and I am looking forward to going through all your videos
"tis the season!" Absolutely the "Wright" gift I need to create my current project. Much appreciation for your sharp, professional observations & tutorials. Best wishes for a creative, prosperous new year.
I ran through this tutorial and ended up with a reasonable facsimile. It's somewhat complicated but you (unlike so many others) had a pacing that included all of the steps (no quick cuts or muddling over some detail) so I could always check my progress against yours.
Hi Brad, I appreciate you spending time to leave me feedback. I'm happy to hear its helping. One thing that reaaaly annoys me when I watch tutorials (currently I'm learning blender) is when they skip over an important step and I can't go further because of it. I'm mindful of this when making my tutorials
@@ArtistWright Ditto, AW. Note to those viewing at home: Take the time to label the layers as ArtistWright does. It takes time, but (because he does it first), it's a way not only to stay organized but it is the needed structure to be able to follow along. You can see what layers he has, what is above or below what, what is selected, etc., and then can duplicate the same techniques. Note to self: My Photoshop documents tend to be a big mess of thrown-together, unnamed layers, but I am learning. :) Old dogs, and all that.
Amazing video with lots of information. I thought your pen tool video explained a lot but this one WOW. Keep showing us what we can do because I can't find learning from anywhere that is clearer and as complete as yours. Thank you again for sharing.
Very nice video. Relearned use of several techniques. I like your style because it isn’t slow motion but also not high speed. Also, explanation of tool and techniques easily understandable. Thanks.
AWESOME !!! I dont seem to be getting notifications from you.... I just thought today, id not heard anything from you posting vids, so i came to your chanel and saw theres at least 2 videos i knew nothing about...
Holy shit dude, amazing tutorial!! Coming from Photoshop on PC, I bought Affinity Designer for my IPad Pro and thought I’d just learn Affinity by clicking on all the buttons and trying everything out to figure out what everything does, I watched a tutorial or 2 on the program but nothing compares to what I learned in your 30minute video tutorial! Instant subscription!! Struggled with a few things because the layout of the program and it’s tools and features is in different places than it is on the Mac and PC, but your explanation was so clear and detailed that i eventually found everything after a bit of opening menus and searching. I’m so excited to go draw more plates now.. 🥹😙 I haven’t looked yet but I really hope you have more videos tutorials on the other features and tools in Affinity as well..
Hi Silvertongue, I'm glad my tutorial has helped you so much. Yes I have many Affinity Designer Tutorials and have been making them for 7 years so far. Thank you for subscribing. More to come!
Thank you so much for this wonderful tutorial. You have organized this material well AND I love the way you label and organize your layers panel. I have just started doing that as leaving it as "curves and ellipses" just drives me crazy. I am so glad to have these tutorials as I am new to this software and some things do not seem very intuitive to me. Please keep up the good work.
Hi! Absolutely awesome video, thank you so much! I have a problem working on this on iPad, do you perhaps know if the same features are available there and I just can't find them, or they're only there in the desktop version? Thanks to anyone who tries to help :')
Hi thanks for that. I don't own an iPad but I know that you can do it all so it's in there somewhere. Sorry I can't be of more help. If someone here knows can you help our fellow designer out?
Hi I am Tony of Tony's Music I like your Affinity Designer tutorial pretty good! I do some too as I like to share things I find out, I have subscribed to your channel and wish you a merry Christmas!
I am enjoying the video but not able to fully follow along, maybe since I have Affinity Designer 2. When I drag the wood image to the circle, it won't let me go to the right and the result is different. Any tips for how this is different in AD2? Thanks!
The wood pattern is most likely hiding underneath another layer. Pay attention to the layers panel, click the drop down arrow on the layer you dragged the wood pattern into. It's in there
Thanks for this illuminating tutorial! Only one minor criticism - you pronounce gaussian incorrectly (named after German mathematician Carl Friedrich Gauss).
This is an unbelievably accurate recreation of a real life object in a vector design program. Easy and effective tutorial to follow along with, thank you so much for uploading quality content like this!
It's unbelievable how you turned a designer construction into a photo .Extremely accurat realization!!!!
Hi UE M thanks for that. All about experimenting to get the most out of Affinity
You are a fantastic teacher!!!
Thank you Zepun

Very nice to read that, thank you so much. I will continue making them. Feel free to give me ideas lol!

OK can't stop commenting on your vids but this is AMAZING. I feel like I just had a world of possibility opened up to me for creating my own assets!!
Ha I love the feedback so appreciate every comment! Just remember if you are using anything in that FX tab, don't forget to tick the 'scale with object' box. If you don't and you resize let's say the spoon, the gaussian blur for instance wont look right.

Hi Michael that's odd, maybe click off the notification Bell and click on it again. I'm glad you are back and hope you enjoy the new videos.
just amazing man ! trying to start designing now and im really a noob in this, thank you so much for sparing your time for the lesson .
Hey I'm glad you like it. Stay tuned new tutorial coming soon

Brilliant, thank you.
No problem Charles

Thank you and i'm glad to hear it James
Great video thanks
Thank you!
I think its amazing people can do this in design/photo software. Im just gonna take the lazy route and learn some Blender
I play with Blender occasionally, it's seriously amazing but a steep learning curve.
Excellent video, love your work :)
Hello again Agent, thanks
Still enjoyed making this realistic image, works great both in AD1 and 2 :) 💪

Ah so in Affinity V2 just drag it onto that layer, no need to drag to the right.
@@ArtistWright it drags it onto the layer but I can lo longer see the wood pattern.
The wood pattern is most likely hiding underneath another layer. Pay attention to the layers panel, click the drop down arrow on the layer you dragged the wood pattern into. It's in there
Ah yes it might have been in there but off to the side, you can always find it in the layers panel,click on it and you should see the bounding box.
You needed a dark brown shadow color (closest possible to black)to make that plate look like the real deal. Other than that, this was a great tutorial
Thanks Torinux, appreciate the feedback
Can't believe I could do this in vector. I am imagining how unstable my system would be if tried in Illustrator.
It's a cool feature, thanks
Thanks for this illuminating tutorial! Only one minor criticism - you pronounce gaussian incorrectly (named after German mathematician Carl Friedrich Gauss).
Thank you Rod, and thanks for flagging my pronunciation I appreciate it
@@ArtistWright Just watching your pen tool epic - absolutely definitive work!
@@rodbowkett2376 thank you so much
Infelizmente no Windows o 3D é muito limitado
Really? I did not know it was different on windows. Affinity designer 2.0 is coming soon so all is not lost!
😍😍
Cheers
Excellent tutorial thank you.
