Inkscape Video Tutorial

Get Inkscape Here : http://inkscape.org/ Subscribe to Me: http://bit.ly/2FWQZTx Best Inkscape Book : http://goo.gl/mTAm7P Welcome to my Inkscape Video Tutorial! Inkscape is an amazing program that is almost as good as Adobe Illustrator, but it is FREE! Because I'm going to be drawing interfaces and making games very soon I thought it would be very important to show how to create those designs. Inkscape is the perfect tool for drawing them. In this tutorial I cover what all of the buttons do and I teach you how I remember all of the shortcut key codes. Many more videos are coming until I have covered everything. Like the channel?
