I recently set up a self-hosted server, and use it amongst other things for mail. I also have a handful of other mail addresses (a number I'd like to see go down), and had the habit to have local access to my mails on my computer.
I discovered notmuch...
I decided to practice Inkscape, and since it's october I wanted to use the Inktober prompts as inspiration. Here is a short tutorial of how I drew the bat.
I decided to try and draw the blueprint of a bat, as some kind of technical drawing, and inspir...
Amongst other things, I decided to give Inktober on Inkscape a go to practice drawing using a flat design approach. I like some of the quirks that emerged from this design, and want to practice it.
For this prompt I decided to create one of the cl...
Today's prompt is flame, which inspired me to toy with Inkscape's gradients. I wanted to have some shapes appear partially in the light of a candle, on a pitch black background.
I had never tried to use Inkscape's gradients before, but I figured it could...
Today's submission got me to think about plants, and fiddling around with Inkscape I got the idea to use the L-systems extension, a nifty tool for procedural drawing.
When I settled on using L-systems to generate plants, I first wanted to draw some ki...
Of the many reasons why I'm trying out Inktober this month the two main are that I unexpectedly have free time right now, and that I want to progress in designing with Inkscape. Today, I wanted to try out a more conventional design, following again some ideas of flat design...
The 8th prompt is match. I went full geometrical to explore some of Inkscape's precision techniques that help achieve nicely put together shapes.
I had decided to work a bit on precision placement and precise shape crafting, once again inspired by Logo...
Crabby monday... I am trying out another only circles drawing, a bit more rigorously than last monday's drawing. I am again inspired by one of Logos By Nick's video.
One of the difference with the bat drawing is that I will choose some circle size...
The 11th prompt of Inktober is Eagle. I decided to explore the isometric projection, a common projection pattern.
Any projection consists of projecting a 3D shape onto a plane. Among projection methods are
Inktober's 12th prompt was on the abstract side: forget.
It took some time for the idea of a disintegrating image to emerge. I wanted to depict a memory lost as some sort of data erasure. It felt natural that there would be a pitch black background beh...
Not gonna lie, I am not a fan of my production today... The prompt was kind, and I had a hard time coming up with something.
I had a hard time coming up with an idea to illustrate the word 'kind'. I was going back and forth between the different meanings...
Meet Empty Dumpty, the apathetic alter ego of Humpty Dumpty. It likes nothing, nor does it dislike things. He simply stares.
When I read the 14th prompt, empty, my thoughts went very quickly to the lore of Hollow Knight, the video game by Team Che...
Only two days after my first try at wallpapers group, I'm trying it out again, with a representation of the group called 3*3.
Armadillos are awesome, and can easily fit in a hexagon, which is a good basis for three-fold symmetric motifs.
After try...
Today I had a first go at using Path Effects, a door opened to a whole new set of tools!
The prompt, Scrape, really made me think of this scratch art where you have a black sheet of paper chich you can scratch to reveal white in selected places, and...
