Doing Hanzi and Mukashi

#hanzi #kanji #demo #inkscape #unicode

I said this months theme would be hanzi and haiku

While you can use Special Characters to input Sinitic characters and kana and other non Roman fonts you can also use the Control U command in Inkscape

Next post I'll show you other things to do with mukashi and why I choose that character for a demo.

GOLD INKSCAPE FILTERS

Before I start the March Hanzi and Haiku series here's another Gold Texture experiment

How the Gold filter from Inkscape looks over 3 related tones and another texture 

2 Gold Filters

Continuing my ABC series ...

I will also upload this to my DeviantArt 

SVG FLAMES with Inkscape

#svg #flames #inkscape

There are several ways to make flames using #inkscape. Here's one

Yes this one looks rough but you can add further changes in GIMP and Inkscape, tweaking gradients and shapes then adding blur or smudge and if you start with a vector object its much easier to move the flames and then "paint" over them if you don't have a tablet or digital pen!

I'll be putting a worksheet of flame shapes up on my DeviantArt 

Love Love love and more love
