8 years ago and your tutorials are still very relevant thank you

I've never commented on a video before, but Nick's tutorial is too fantastic to not say something. I had never used Inkscape before, so I jumped right into this tutorial without looking up any of the basics. At first, I was a bit dubious because the current version of Inkscape has changed some since this tutorial--didn't matter! This tutorial is so well done that I was still able to easily & quickly figure everything out. I am rather amazed that I could actually create an identical fish. This is likely the best tutorial I've encountered. 10/10. Can't wait to play around with all of these new skills!

Great video, I didn't realize inkscape was so powerful. Considering there is a tremendous amount of advertising push for Photoshop

[halfwardog]

Mr. Saporito I must say that you are very talented I really appreciate your hard work!

[alpenjon]

Great! I found you can insert a node on the Bend Path and convert it to corner node to get that corner where the tail is.

[blinkerplease]

Great video! It is the first one I have seen of yours. You can make that sharp point before the tail by adding a corner node either by double clicking on the green line and selecting corner node or selecting both end nodes and hit the add a node then corner node. I look forward to watching the rest of your tutorials.

Your tutorials are AWESOME!!!! Thank you for sharing this online. it has been very helpful in designing basic stuff at work - logo and illustrations, designs for training materials and some adverts for upcoming events. Keep up the good work!

[bekkerofficial]

thank you man :) The best you did here is to hover over the icons so the shortcut pops up
In the newer version of inkscape everything looks different
But with the shortcuts you can follow along

[justperson]

I found this video easier to follow than the other one where you made the arched logo design. Thanks!
