Neither of the two programs are better than the other. Its a matter of which is more essential to a design project you are doing. Photoshop can be more in depth when it comes to editing images and is popular because it has a wide variety of tools specifically for manipulating an image. Illustrator on the other hand is usually used for marketing material purposes plus it maintains it’s quality from however you change it’s scale.
So I would recommend using Illustrator when you need it. It wont hurt if you try
I use both photoshop and illustrator daily (and I’m an adobe certified associate for both) to create marketing material for my dad’s company, and honestly I can’t stand illustrator. it feels so much less intuitive than photoshop, the only real benefits is that I like the scaleability of doing work in a vector format and I like that illustrator has artboards to work on multiple pieces in a single project, though I think they’re introducing/introduced that functionality to photoshop.
The most recent versions of Photoshop have art boards too now!
Also, this is a great tutorial for beginners. However you left our my favorite tool, the shape builder tool . A Photoshop tutorial next could be cool, along with a when to use each application tutorial.
Very interesting. I’ve had Illustrator with Creative Cloud, however I only use Photoshop, preferably with a Drawing Tablet, to do most things. Even though Photoshop works fine, and I doubt you really need to make HQ textures, since ROBLOX downscales textures to be around 500x500 or something, it seems really handy to use when making texture templates and such.
Personally, I find the Shape Builder Tool to be extremely useful. I go back to the shape builder tool to make pretty much every shape in my illustrations.
Great tutorial, I used Adobe Illustrator before in a demo but it was kinda hard for me so I stood with Adobe Photoshop, great tutorial anyways helped me understand Illustrator better.
Sweet! This covers some cool fundamentals. Being a curious user of Illustrator myself it might be nice to have some instruction on exactly what anchor points are, and how we can maneuver them better. I’m still learning Thank you!
I’ve never used Affinity, but I’ve used a wide range of other vector base graphic programs like Illustrator and I can say it’s very hard cross reference tutorials.
However if you learn the terminology from one program it can be helpful for googleing the solution for a different program.
