Using Power Strokes to create Hair in Inkscape

Inkscape Video tutorial

In this video, I will show you how to quickly and easily create hair using power strokes in Inkscape. I was playing around with power stroke for a video on more complex plants [to add to the current version] in Inkscape, when I came across a post on social media with a little hairy monster. Rather than using shapes, I tried to create the hair for my feedback with lines and power strokes. It was quick and easy and I redid the design in a similar way for this video.

I hope you found this little video helpful. I am enjoying the more stable and user-friendly updates to Inkscape a lot. Creating this little hairy character in Inkscape was quick and fun. There will be more videos on power strokes coming soon. I am just having too much fun with it.
