(In my example I changed the base from red to purple.) If you change the base colour, your line will display a different arrangement of colours. If you go back into the brush dynamics panel (tap “more” on the bottom toolbar while you have the brush active) and move the Hue adjustment slider down to 50%, you’ll see that part of the spectrum is missing, and the colour-change is different than when the Hue setting is at 100%. The velocity (ie: speed) at which you move the pen determines the colour of the line. (I chose a bright red for this tutorial.) This trick doesn’t work with black and white. On the colour selector, choose a bright colour. On the Hue dropdown, choose “Velocity.” This will tie the colour-change to the speed of your brush. “Hue” in the brushes setting affects the brush colour - determining which parts of the spectrum appear when you draw a line. Then select the brush customisation drop-down again and choose “new round brush.”ĭon’t worry about any info on the top customisation page - instead, tap into “Dynamics.”įind the “Hue” slider (on the left) and adjust it up to 100%. On the right-hand side, select the brush customisation drop-down and add a category (because you’re going to be making your own brush). You also want to have the brush tool selected.
You need to have Affinity Designer open and make sure you’re in the Pixel persona (because this effect only works with raster brushes). But it will definitely impress all your friends and add some pizzazz to your lettering projects so let’s get to it. This trick isn’t really magic… it’s just a setting I found that creates a neat effect. And that’s what we’re working with today. But Affinity can also be used for raster-based lettering. I use it frequently when building hand lettering compositions that will have to change size dramatically. Affinity Designer is a great tool for creating vector lettering.
