Vector Portrait Essentials with Chris Rathbone

I'm impressed

i was interested until i saw that the whole layout is nothing like im used to and got overwhelemed

Great work!

Can anyone please send this message to the company administration " why don't you support RTL text.? This is important."

Thanks a lot, great stuff! Just vectorized a picture of my cat following this walkthrough and it turned out to be amazing! 😼

Hi Chris, what do you charge for something like that? I have had several pictures of myself and others "converted" into drawings similar to what you go through in your video. Curious....thank you,

I am just watching it a year later, but that's a lot of good content to learn

Back in the early 90s I worked for a newspaper and I had to do so many portraits in the grey scale style, you have just remembered this past experience to me. I had to use an Illustrator that we had back them , Illustrator 2 or Illustrator 88, you could not work in preview, only in black lines, and I had to keep clicking on preview to see what I was really doing, then back to the vector lines and back to preview... it was not easy! Now it has changed so much and Affinity designer is such an improvement, I have it and it is so versatile, thanks for it

You sound exactly like Frank Lampard mate.

Amazing! I'm just confused about the order of some of these layers, how are layers like Highlights and Glows visible if they are below Shadows and Low lights?

Magnifique vidéo, j'adore 💖

Dude, you’re simply magical! Baaaaddessst tutorial meeeen…explanations on point, tool mentioning on point, visibility of application on point…one of the clearest intelligent tutorial on any creative art form I have viewed online. Kudos to you. You deserve more views and subscribers. Thanks a lot.

This is without doubt the best explained tutorial I have ever followed. Also such a clear calm voice. Thanks

This was excellent, thank you for sharing your process.

The shadows part I am trying but couldn't make it how to make that edge ?

How do you do make all the colors blend together to make a smooth gradient to show depth?

TIL about the Global Colors feature. Thank you so much!

This is such a helpful video! I got so many ideas and tricks from this.. thank you for making this

Question..
For vector art work do I need to use affinity designer or affinity photo?
