![]() The latest version requires at least Windows 7. It works with Windows, Mac, and Linux operating systems. Like most photo editing programs, Inkscape supports extensions. Among many other useful features, you can work with layers, apply a huge number of filters to a picture, and use spell check along with the text tool. Tons of file types are supported, both when opening and saving. You can also draw straight or freehand lines. The interface can be a bit cluttered, but that's only evidence of the vast number of tools it includes. Nearly all the tools you'll often be using are planted along both sides of Inkscape for easy access.Ĭircles, arcs, 3D boxes, ellipses, stars, spirals, and polygons can be created. Point 2 allows you to change the size of the bright ring around the dark spot.Inkscape is a vector graphics editor, more akin to Illustrator as opposed to a photo manipulation package, but still has a lot of useful features. Point 1 allows you to change the size of the dark spot (left - increase, right - decrease). In Step 3 of Part 1, apply the Curves ( ) adjustment as shown below. You might want to change the size of the dark spot in the center of the image or the size of the bright white ring around that spot. Try this effect with different brushes and settings.Īnd finally, a little trick. Apply it to the top layer in step 7 (see Part 1) before applying the first Twist effect inside the area shown in red. Smudge by is another effect that will add a nice touch to your image. Huge opportunities you can get from G'MIC effect by - it all depends on your world perception and your fantasy. Or Droste effect by -> Distort -> Droste),Īnd many other effects. You can also use other effects like my Reticulation effect (Effects -> Artistic -> Reticulation ), Or Bulge ( ) effect (Effects -> Distort -> Bulge). Or Ink Sketch ( ) effect (Effects -> Artistic -> Ink Sketch), Now that we've created the image and colored it, let's try to make it more diverse.įor example, apply to an image built-in Posterize ( ) effect (Adjustments -> Posterize), Perhaps you will find your original way of coloring and share it with us. Of course this is not all ways of coloring. Set the Blend Mode ( ) to Overlay for the top layer. You can download this settings from the zip file Gradient for Vortex tut.zip Apply Gradient Mapping with the settings as shown below: Add a New Layer ( ) to the Black&White image. Draw a Black&White Linear ( ) Gradient ( ) from the lower left to the upper right. Set the Blend Mode ( ) to Color Burn for the top layer.Ī similar result can be made with the Gradient Mapping. Once more example of applying gradients is using Multi Color Gradient by a New Layer ( ) to the Black&White image and apply Multi Color Gradient to the top layer. Note: this effect is additional for the already colored image. Similar coloring can be obtained by applying Trippy rainbow effect by way to color the image is applying Color Dimmer effect by may be interested in applying another effect by - Radial Prism effect. Or Gradient Mapping by with, for example, MiguelPereira's Rainbow preset (see Presets for Gradient Mapping), or with your own settings. Note: all settings given in this tutorial are very approximate and depend on your preferences.īesides using Curves ( ) you can apply other ways of coloring, for example: Play around with the R,G, and B curves to get the color you like. Step 9. Apply Curves ( ) with the settings as shown below: Step 8. Apply the Twist ( ) effect to the bottom layer by changing the Direction and, if necessary, the Amount. Set the Blend Mode ( ) to Lighten for the top layer. On the top layer run Twist ( ) effect (Effects -> Distort -> Twist) with the settings seen below: Set the Blend Mode ( ) to Negation for the top layer and merge ( ) down this layer. Set the Blend Mode to Color Burn.Īpply a Zoom Blur ( ) effect (Effects -> Blurs -> Zoom Blur) to the top layer in the center of the vortex with a Zoom Amount of about 80-100. Step 5. Run Clouds ( ) effect (Effects -> Render -> Clouds) with a small scale and roughness about 0.55 - 0.7. Step 4. Apply the Sharpen ( ) effect (Effects -> Photo -> Sharpen) with the maximum Amount. Step 3. Apply Curves ( ) adjustment with Luminosity like show below: ![]() Draw a radial gradient ( & ) as shown below (the size can be larger or smaller): Set Primary Сolor to White and Secondary to Black. Create a New ( ) canvas with the dimensions you need (I chose 600圆00). Let's create an image similar to the one shown below: This tutorial has been recreated on the basis of a Storm / Vortex Tutorial by 1
