Inkscape Tutorial: Flat Vector Landscape Design

In this Inkscape tutorial, I show you how to design a vector desert landscape design in the flat style. Though the design looks intricate/complicated at first glance, it is actually beginner friendly and requires just a few common tools.
I'll be creating this composition, which can be used as a background or as your main design for something like a poster or flyer, using a combination of the bezier curves tool, rectangle tool, circle tool, and color swatches.

    I'm so glad you started doing Inkscape Tutorials now. I'm hoping you'll do Scribus (Indesign Alternative) tutorials after. That will help All Designers who work in Web and Print. It will also prove that Designers don't need Adobe tools to make great work. Make work with the Open Source Jab, Right Hook and Upper-Cut. (Inkscape, Gimp, Scribus)

    Great tutorial! Two questions for you. Instead of recreating the arms on the first cactus, could you have duplicated the first arm after you grouped it, or was there a reason to start from scratch for each arm? Next question...after the drawing is complete, how to you get rid of all the stuff that is on the outside of the frame? Thanks!

    Thank you so much!! I've always wanted to get into graphic design in some way and this tutorial was just what I needed. I'm wondering.... Can you apply physics to an Inkscape project? I decided to work on creating shadows and its becoming a PAIN to go through each cacti, shrub, mountain and adding these shadows in a way that makes sense with the suns direction.

    Also, a neat trick to add to the cacti is filter-->>distort-->>roughen. Gives a natural touch to things.

    I have a question on 3:59 : How do can do you use the "Edit-Path-by-Node"-Tool (F2) while being on the Bezier-Curve-Tool? I tried a few things, but F2 has the function on my laptop to adjust the brightness of the screen. As for now, I have to leave the tool to get the other and then I have a lot of paths that aren't really connected. Thank you for your help!
