In this mini video tutorial, I’ll create and work with texture and grunge pictures to boost a vector illustration in Affinity Designer. Using images I took with my cell phone, I create texture pictures that may be combined with my design utilizing numerous mix modes and adjustment layers to fine-tune the photographs.
