    Useful video. After seeing this I made several silhouettes which turned out quite well. I'll be doing a few more to try to improve. Thanks for your efforts.

    Really enjoyed your tutorial on Affinity Designer software. I do Scrollsaw work and wondered if these Silhouette patterns can then just be printed out for use as patterns attached to wood for Scrollsaw cutting? Thanks

      Hi! Oh I love scroll saws! If you create your silhouette in affinity you can then print it, absolutely. If you're printing on a home printer, I would start with a letter-size (or A4) artboard and then hit print when you're finished!

    Thank you for this video! Is there some way to turn the black silhouette into an outline? Sometimes I want a black silhouette but sometimes I just want the lineart of that silhouette without the black fill.

    • @LoriOster
      @LoriOster  Před 2 lety

      Sure! You can just apply a stroke to your silhouette curve, and then set the color to "no color" and you'll have just the outline. If you plan to cut your silhouette outline on a machine like the Cricut or Silhouette, don't forget to expand your stroke.

    Great video. I do most of my silhouettes in Inkscap (free app) with Trace Bitmap option much easier, then I export them as SVG and complete the editing with Affinity Designer.

    • @LoriOster
      @LoriOster  Před 3 lety +1

      Definitely another great option. I like to create them completely from scratch like this, but there are tons of great tracing options out there, as well.

    Hello Lori. Thanks for the tutorial, where can I get the background for silhoutte?

      Hi, Rachmat, thanks! I made a video about that here: czcams.com/video/wd4zd5tP-8U/video.html

    This video is not for a absolute beginner. I didn't even know what background, should ir be a photo background workspace etc?..where the oval selection tool was, the little nodes were etc...I gave up and now I am off to find something step by step...you have to know your way around the program for this video to be of use. I will come back when i know the program more.

      Good luck to you. You do need basic competence in AD to create anything IMO.

    I gave up - too much introductory guff for which I had no interest
