3D Shading Inkscape

Creating 3D images in Inkscape is easily achieved using gradients, clip groups and a little blurring. With gradients, we are restricted to linear and radial gradients, which are perfect for a lot of shapes but sometimes we need to be able to create custom shape shading and highlight.
In this video, I demonstrate step by step how to use gradients, clip groups and blurring to achieve 3D shading effects for any shape.
In this tutorial, I’m using the latest version of Inkscape - Inkscape 1.2.2

Thank you

Outstanding tutorial! I learned more about creating three-dimensional objects in a few minutes here than I have after twenty hours of Udemy courses. Extremely well done!

Inkscape 1.3 (to be launched) k naye features par video banana bhai

[@CreateForFree]

Thanks. I'm looking forward to Inkscape 1.3 being released. The new shape builder tool will hopefully be a great addition.

@@CreateForFree exactly, also the cmyk support

Great channel. For the bottom section, what is the advantage of using shapes (ellipse, rectangles etc) vs just tracing with bezier tool?

[@CreateForFree]

I used the ellipse tool to ensure I got a perfectly symmetrical curve which I could duplicate and scale to produce all the curves, but there's no reason why you shouldn't use the Bezier tool, it was just another way to do it

[@marchache]

Thanks. Great to see different approaches.
