3D Layered Paper Cutout Effect Underwater Illustration in Inkscape

Описание: In this Inkscape tutorial, you will learn how to create a layered paper cutout effect by creating an underwater illustration. I show how to achieve this effect using drop shadows in the filter menu.
I make things simple by showing how to trace using reference images for the fish, shark, and diver. I also show how to use tool tricks to get corral and seaweed designs easily. Finally, I show how to create a classic boat anchor using only simple shapes.

Perfect for beginners, one tool used in this tutorial is the bezier pen to draw the fish, shark, diver, and coral. I also use the calligraphy pen with special settings to achieve a seaweed look. These techniques translate to any other vector graphic platform like Adobe Illustrator and Affinity Designer.
