A small 3 part series I've prepared to help people with getting into Inkscape and making isometric graphics quickly

I kid, I kid. I guess the tutorial could be useful to someone

Shadowrun's last blog entry is about their art development, and has many little insights on isometric art as well.

I totally expected this one

Sorry, I know this doesn't relate. I just went for the cheap joke.



I think programmers working on isometric games with no skill in drawing isometric art is a pretty small demographic, especially here at Tigs, where most people are pretty decent jacks of all trades. Where did you get the idea for the tutorial?

Why not do a tutorial on Java + OpenGL, seeing how you've worked with that and solved quite a few challenges along the way. Share you knowledge, man. I think that subject would resonate with more people, including me.

The tips on setting up a custom grid for isometric art in Inkscape I really like.  I think on TIGS there are a lot of people who lurk, so showing how easy it can be to try something new should always be encouraged.  Thanks!

I wasn't doing anything last Sunday so I decided on making these. They were actually for a thread at 4chan at first but I decided to pots it on my blog and TIGS afterwards simply because it got a lot of attention

I'd do a tutorial but I'm not a teacher type and I don't want to write a lot of text

@Scut Fabulous
Thanks to you too!

It's also easily searchable, which is good - especially considering other people can share additional tips if they have them.

I appreciate this.  It's something I wouldn't have thought of, and for the next Ludum Dare, I could see it being very useful.  (Assuming I practice it before then!)

Thanks!
