Hey Everyone,
I'm quote new to Affinity Photo and I was wondering if anyone can help me out by recommending a workflow. I am fascinated by old maps and I'd love to pint some high quality scans for myself. My question is, what is the best workflow for removing the discoloration from the old paper in the background and just keeping the blacks and colors.
I've been tried selecting the sampled color and then deleting the background, but playing around with the tolerance still yields a pretty noisy result. Perhaps I should preprocess the colors so that they are easier to select and lift individually from the original photo? I will provide an example of an old map below. Thanks in advance for any help.
