I'd never think of inkscape if I'm asked to do this composition. You made it really simple.

You are so skilled at making complicated things easy! There are so many times where I am doing something in Inkscape and think "I bet Rick would have a much more efficient way of doing this" 😅 Very cool effect! Thanks again for all the time and effort you put into these tutorials!

Another great Inkscape video.
I'm just a hobbyist but I learned so much from your tutorials.
Keep it up, if you have the time and opportunity 👍

You deserve so many more subs, dude. I'm learning to create my own designs for laser engraving, and these tutorials are a Godsend!

I love your tutorials. Could you look at something like a Adolphe Millot Poster. That would be a really cool tutorial. Thanks!

Wayyyy easier than in GIMP. Hey can you do a video of hou designing a poster in inkscape, a Brutalism style pozter

4:42 If you had another duplicate of just the number, you could use that to subtract from the mask object you duplicated at 4:25.

I've looked through your videos and am unable to find what I'm looking for. Have you done a tutorial on cutting/dividing an image into repeating triangles where each piece can then be saved as an individual series of images? Maybe you did one with squares? It would be like replicating the process of cutting up pieces of an image with scissors and putting the pieces in a pile for a collage. Thanks in advance. Stay inspired!
