Course Information
Course Overview
Design everything you need for free! First ever complete Inkscape video course from A-Z for beginners!
The course is teaching everything one should know to work efficiently with the free and open source graphic design program Inkscape. As a free program, there are plenty of short tutorials about Inkscape, but not a comprehensive video tutorial like this was made before! These lessons are not for solving individual tasks (like how to create a banner, how to draw a fish etc.) but rather going through all the tools one can need to understand and use Inkscape on an amateur or even professional level! Apart from sharing the tools, I also give my tricks and tips I developed myself as a designer working with Inkscape for years.
There are 30 lectures of varying length, and .svg files are provided where needed, so students can learn and experiment. This is how the course is built up:
- In the first set of lectures we go through the basic tools, and understand how Inkscape works.
- Then the more complex tools follow, and we create more elaborate designs.
- Then I'm sharing some illustration tips and tricks, that will make for clever and outstanding illustration.
- And in the final lessons we create a Christmas card together, using all the tools and knowledge acquired during the course.
Have fun and ask when you need help! New videos will be added to the course upon request!

The course was great. It is a good mixture of technical instructions and easy to follow along creative tips to start you on your path to creating amazing vector illustrations. I would love to see the course updated( as of this review version 1.3 of inkscape has been release) but the course material still has relevance.

There were few tools & topics missing. For example, working in 3D wasn't sufficient. All of these instructions I got if for free on YouTube. Didn't learn anything new here. I enrolled into this course expecting to learn some additional & advanced topics on Inkscape. For me it wasn't worth. Also, it skipped on few topics.

I loved this course! The lectures are fun, packed with information, and clearly explained. István’s style is friendly and creative and it’s clear that he is passionate about what he’s doing. Will definitely be recommending this course to others. Thanks István for your inspiring lectures! I can’t wait to get drawing! :-)

good course there is very little information on how to use inkscape anywhere on internet. This course covers everything that you need to use inkscape effectively
