Is this the sort of result you would be happy with?

Don't believe anything you see in a newspaper nowadays, unless you were there.
Basic 4 picture composition in AP

Hi Brunzenstein
I have attached the 2 pictures I used plus the AP file. Unfortunately most of the work in AP was destructive so you may not be able to see exactly what was done.

Yes, I see it too...
To get around the problem Right Click the new layer (before you attempt to move it) and click Rasterise
Not sure what causes the initial problem

HI Carl, nice work , so how did you create these images were they painted from scratch ? Would you share your brush settings? Thanks G cj
I have ZERO painting (or drawing) skills. This is more about photo manipulation (to look like it's been painted) rather than painting from scratch.
Grab any photo then use the Paint Mixer brush (set to no fill colour) to paint over the picture whilst using a textured brush to give some texture to the paint stokes.
The brush used in the example attached was one of the DAUB Bristles brushes called Dense Fibres | Matte Gouache.
I have highlighted the settings I used (in the attached picture) but other settings and brushes will give different effects.
After painting the picture the final thing to do is to add a lighting effect with texture to add some more depth to the painting. I have superimposed my lighting settings on the attached picture.
Once again it was Erwe that showed me the steps needed to do all this and he has also taken the time to provided a video (https://vimeo.com/200846556) to show how he did it. I simply followed his instructions.

Surprisingly easier than it looks, about 5 minutes per picture in AP
Thanks to Erwe for the idea

Use 2 shapes with different colours
Add a rectangle bigger than the shape
Use the rectangle as the mask for the top shape
Easy to align and you can rotate the rectangle (mask) if you want a non horizontal change of colour

... there are some serious dreamers around that even ask for video editing and animation support (I'm aware there are people in need for this). But a bit of common sense would help loosing that thought asap. Anyone up for 3D modelling and spreadsheet support? ;-)
If Serif could add a Drone Persona so I can operate the drone I got for Christmas from inside AP that would be awesome.
Won't need much in the Drone Persona just some navigation controls (preferably via my tablet) and a live feed from my drone's camera so I can take snapshots and edit them in Pixel Persona
I can see this being even more popular once AP is available on a iPad.
:D

It's the same procedure in AP and AD

1. The tools you see will also be determined by the "Persona" you are in, not all the tools are available in all Personas. (see attached)
2. When you first open an image it may be locked by default. On the layers tab unlock the image, then select the Move tool and then you will be able to use the handles on the image to "squash" the image to whatever shape you like

Try different settings.

This is already implemented
See if this thread helps

Affinity Photo (AP) is new so there are not that many in-depth video tutorials showing what you have requested. But you can find other videos for other software (such as Photoshop) which you can learn from. The trick is to find the same function, used in those videos, when using AP
"Another idea is whether there could be a way for members to upload images (could be a security problem) and ask for comments from other guys about how to deal with them."
If you are happy to upload your pictures to the forum then I am sure there will be others on the forum happy to help you with what you want to correct/improve on them.

Without the original picture it was hard to see what you had done, now we can
Good work with the bird, the bird's reflection and the extension of the front of the boat.
The only thing I miss, from the original, is the man's paddle entering the water

Or maybe this for a more subtle border effect
