I am still not seeing the paintbrush paint anything smadell. I have the mask by itself under the group and it is not applied to the other layers in the group. When I go to paint the hair with the brush I see it on the mask icon in the layers panel but do not notice anything in the image. I did not apply a black and white layer like you did in the video. -paulw

Am I supposed to see the white brush when painting over something? -paul

Thanks! I am going to try it in a few minutes but I think I am going to get interrupted for the rest of the day. So you may see a reply from me in the morning 🙂 I also just found this YouTube video from Affinity Revolution where she totally changes the gals hair color. Very interesting. Lots of techniques new to me! "How to Change Hair Color in Affinity Photo" -paulw

Hi! How did you mask the entire group black? And then "I painted the hair only with white, bringing those adjustments onto the hair (but not onto other areas"? -paulw

That looks better! I am reading up on how to do that right now. I can also try and figure out Peter Dam (Photography-RAW) stuff too. I thought maybe I could draw some hair somehow but the gals do not want any fake PhotoShop look to the image. Thank you, -paulw

Hi, Their hair looks matted down and blurry. Is there something I can do to enhance it? It also looks "fake" and washed out. I didn't take the picture but not that it would have made a difference 🙂 Probably a cell phone picture. Thanks Paul Williamson

Wow! I am so impressed with AD! I have more of a side/side-front view but I will give those tools a try! One gal is standing next to another in a white shirt. The other one has a colored one so I think I can use the freeze tool. Thank you so much! -paul

I've never liquefied anything in AP before. I can't figure out how to use the Punch or Pinch tool. I do not see any difference. -paulw

So if you happen to have a picture of Dolly Parton wearing a white crew neck t-shirt hanging around, how would you give her a "breast reduction". Well sorry. I could not think of a better way to describe what someone asked me to do (a relative so I don't want to post a picture). 🙂 -paulw

Thanks! Very, very helpful! Honestly, I was going to get around to redrawing it! Really! So what you did is great! The darn pen tool. I really need to take that AD pen course that I bought on Udemy a long time ago! -paulw

okay! I will give it a go! Thanks

That is what I want to do! How do I do that? I was in Designer, not Pixel Persona.

Got it! That explains why I could do what I want with the default circles filled in! Thanks!

I duplicated the first church and moved it next to the first one, overlapping it. I moved the second one back one. I still see part of the 2nd one behind or overlapping the first one. -paulw

Hi, I don't know anything about power duplicating. I would like to hide part of the 2nd image that is behind the larger one and then so on. Like stacking or z-order I suppose. The second image would just "peek" out from behind the first one,... Thanks, -paulw

Hi, I tried changing the orders of the layers but that didn't do it. Say I had four circles, one large one and three smaller ones. How would I put one smaller circle behind the larger one, then the next small circle behind the smaller one and then do the same to the other one? So they would overlap each other. -paulw

Totally forgot Walt! Now it's transparent! Thanks.

Thanks again Walt. AD did open the EPS but it has a white background. No layer for the background, just for the branches and leaves. So I guess I will have to use it for a white document or web page but maybe the background may show up a little any way.

No Patrick. I did not think of that. I purchased some similar seasonal trees that came with transparent png files so I am all set. But they are not as "cute" as these. Thanks, >>Have you contacted them and asked if they can make you a transparent PNG version?

I purchased it at creative market. From now on I will make sure anything has the versions I want or I will not buy them or alter them.

How so? -paulw

Are only self-made designs allowed to be posted here? I didn't occur to me that the image could be used by others. -pw

I bought it from Creative Market yesterday. Commercial license. Four seasons - spring, summer | Pre-Designed Vector Graphics ~ Creative Market Thanks for checking! -paulw

Wow! Amazing stuff in such a short amount of time! Thank you all! I learned a lot! -paulw

LunaPic did a decent job too. Amazing for an on-line tool!
