hello there,

i have to do a comic for school. my story takes place in a big city so i have to create buildings and also settings in the city center. i did not find a good tutorial via web so have anybody done something like this and could help me? because i read that you can compile backgrounds with vectors so i hope this will work out someway. lots of thanks for your answers

If you'll check the Tricks and Tutorials forum, you'll find some excellent caches of tutorials, as well as many individual gems posted as topics. I don't know specifically if there are any designed to create buildings, but you can certainly pick up the basics you'll need. Particularly I can recommend the websites promoted in this topic: screencasters.heathenx.org (Video tutorials) and in this one: viewtopic.php?f=6&t=56

And for excellent instructions, you should not miss, in the Help menu > Inkscape Manual, the tavmjong bah "Inkscape: Guide to a Vector Drawing"

If I recall, in the Finished Inkscape Work forum, there are some comics made with Inkscape, and I'm pretty sure I've seen a few depicting cityscapes. So you can get an idea what Inkscape can do.
