Hello everyone who still reads my blog! It’s been awhile since I’ve posted the last Inkscape tutorial. But this long hiatus was only in favor because I try to get more knowledge to share with you. And next year, I hope to prepare something quite different from the way it was before. I want to say special thanks to those people who comes to my blog on a regular basis: the total number of views is more than 70 thousands and this number is growing every day. Thank you very much! These are the nice little things that make me very happy :) About requested tutorials (unless you hadn’t proposed one, you can still do it  :) I remember about them, but unfortunately I couldn’t make them as fast as I would like.

Buzzbuster [Ludum Dare 27]

Image
This weekend I took part in Ludum Dare (for the fifth time). Ludum Dare is an accelerated video game development competition. The theme was "10 Seconds". For three days, our team created a game named Buzzbuster  - an arkanoid like game with bees in the hive. The game can be played here . It was super fun, as always, can not wait for the next Ludum Dare event. All graphics for the game were created with Inkscape. = Project page on Behance =

Creating a male cartoon avatar in Inkscape

Before we begin, I strongly recommend you to read the first tutorial in this series, named “Creating a female cartoon avatar in Inkscape” . Many steps of this tutorial are the same that in the previous one, so I’m going to omit them. They are: setting the interface, creating paths, choice of colors, adding volume etc. All these can be found here . Picture №1 Create the basic elements of the character: the head, ears, neck, the shadow under the head and shoulders. It should be noted that in this case the head looks almost square and shoulders are sharper. Picture №2 1. Make an eye more rounded. Eyebrow can be created in two ways: by curving the ellipse path (F5) ;  with the Bezier curve (Shift+F6) in “Ellipse” shape mode. If the width of the path does not suit you, you should convert the object to path (Path > Object to Path) and go to the menu Path > Dynamic Offset (Ctrl+J) . By dragging the white pointer to the left and right, you change the offset distance. To be able to...
