Welcome fellow Afffinty Designer users. I go by the name VectorVonDoom on the Affinity forums, I hate thinking up user names and that's the best I could come up with. You can view some of my work and doodlings on there. I have been using Affinity Designer on and off since it was first in beta on the Mac although I've recently been using it far more regularly.

Generally resources for vector applications are more scarce than for raster apps and Affinity Designer resources are no exception, there are some out there but not a lot. So I'm starting to try and help with that by releasing Affinity Designer resource packs, gradients, swatches, styles, backgrounds and anything else I think might be useful. Unless I start releasing complex things like complete images they'll all be the price of a coffee or lunch.

As they occur to me I'm also be adding Affinty Designer tips and tricks, hopefully you'll find something in there that you didn't already know.


resource

At Campfire, we use Affinity Designer and Affinity Designer over Illustrator and Photoshop.


This is due to a number of reasons such as price, how they deal with clipping masks, gradients and grain, Primitives, The Ability to use photoshop style effects and tools within Designer (there version of illustrator) with the use of Adjustment layers and Persons, Brushes and much much more. (I can go in more details about this design in a separate post)


Tho, for now, let’s talk about some of my favourite and most use recourses to use with Both Affinity Designer and Affinity Photo.


Note: Some of these recourses are paid and free. None of this content is sponsored. The resources listed below we use at campfire.



A list of some of the main brushes I use within Affinity Designer and Photo, this list is a mix of Raster brushes (the ones you find within Photoshop) and some vector Busters.


Tip: If you’re moving from Photoshop to Affinity most if not all brushes from Photoshop will work in Both Designer and Photo.

Show off your designs in style with a mockup, this helps to showcase to a client, or to show your work on your portfolio. Here are some great sites to download mockups.


Tip: With use in Designer and Photo most mockups will not work off that bat since most of them use Photoshop smart objects so some tweaking will be needed.
