In this video tutorial, I show you how to create seamless lace patterns to use as brushes in Affinity Designer.
I used lace brushes in an earlier video and was asked how I go about creating them. It's a lot easier than you might think! In this video, I create a lace pattern using the pen tool and circles and make it a brush to be used as a Textured Intensity Brush in Affinity Designer's Vector Persona. I take that design and quickly make a variation by reusing the elements I already created.
I hope you enjoy this video!

![Affinity Designer Timelapse - Have some Fun with Textured Image Vector Brushes
A short video from 2Dgameartguru.com using gradients and patterns as textured image brushes in Affinity Designer.
This video is a quick creation of a brush pattern and shows the flexibility of the brushes. The brush pattern is based on a tiling gradient [left and right have the same colour] with a white pattern and a shadow shape inside to make it look like a straw. Set to repeat in the brush settings the pattern will be tiled along the path - for some fun effects.

![Affinity Designer - Timelapse - Working with lines and Pressure Curves - Jungle Illustration
This video from 2Dgameartguru.com is more of a timelapse than a tutorial. It shows the process of creating an illustration using just lines [with only 2 nodes], strokes [but no fills], colour or gradients, and most of all the pressure curve.
I created a similar design for a weekly challenge in a social media group [Affinity Designer - hands-on] but didnt record the process. In this video, I recreate the style with the same limitation to show you the process and the advantages of working with simple lines and pressure curves [which can be expanded to shapes easily if needed].
I had to speed up the playback speed as the original recording was 1h 45min - I got a little carried away [what can I say].
Its great fun and I already created two videos on doing plants similar to the ones in this video:
One for Affinity Designer:

...and a second one for Inkscape:

Most of the functionality shown in the video can be created with other software tools such as Adobes Illustrator, CorelDraw, or Inkscape with minor alterations and different names for the tools used.
