    I like the "Displace-Filter" very much, have it used for painterly effects like this.

    j3rry reacted to kemie in Include Variable Fonts   
    J3rry, 
    In both weight and width, variable fonts allow you to control those values beyond the presets, so if you think the bold is to bold and the semibold too thin, you can set the weight somewhere in the middle. But variable fonts allow you to control more things, such as optical sizing, the length of serifs.
     
    Recursive Sans is a great example of what can be done: IT allows you to control weight, slant, "casualness" and "monospaceness"

    j3rry reacted to Bit Disappointed in Why won't Serif listen to customer needs and create a Lightroom alternative for us?   
    It is certainly not the cheapest option - a perpetual license is still available though.
    By the way, it's worth knowing that some camera brands have some of the market's best natural renderings of RAW data (others render more sterile and 'digital'), especially Fuji and Olympus, and with their accompanying software, you can develop your images into TIFF or JPG individually or in batches. The software is often dreadful and slow, but the rendering and colors are exactly the same as in the camera. Here you can adjust details, lighting, highlights, noise reduction much better. I even think that both or at least one of them with the more expensive camera models supports the camera's image processer for development (via USB), but it's a bit cumbersome. However, it's also free, so if you're not satisfied with Photos or LibRAW's rendering but don't have money for the expensive programs, then it's definitely a way to go, for free. So the beautifully developed image largely depends on the camera manufacturer's algorithms or the software's special algorithms, which are part of the companies' brand and definitely not random.
    All this special quality and aesthetics can be bypassed by choosing software that relies solely on LibRAW, it's like basing all your bread on a dull generic bread mix. Whichever bread you choose, it's not really... special.

    Yeah, I think a lot of people don't understand what a photo management application is and why it's so valuable.  Even my cousin in the industry just uses bridge and he keeps telling me to teach him Lightroom one day - and he owns it!  But I guess the key someone mentioned here (and adobe clearly realises with their photographer bundle), is a photo editor is not enough on its own.  You need some way of managing the photos and organising them, rating them and then you know what?  Add some basic adjustment capability and for the rest of it, integration for a full blown editor.  I don't know why this concept is so hard to grasp.  If you're going to have a photo editor for photos, those people are going to have lots of photos and they need something to manage them with.
     
    I've bought all of Serifs products, both v1 and v2 including for iPad - though I never use the iPad stuff.  Mostly I use the photo editor - I'm not an artist.  And I combine the photo editor mostly with Exposure, though I've been trying out digikam again lately, it's pretty good.  Serif would make such an awesome and more polished version and I think looking at their pricing model would quickly become the defect standard, perhaps even becoming the catalyst for the photographer crowd to move away from Adobe.  One things for sure, they won't do it if there's no photo manager, cause it's so crucial.

    I recently illustrated a Zebra Swallowtail Butterfly (Protographium marcellus) for my brother. He wanted a photo, which I did not have, so I decided to create an illustration for him instead. I used AD v2.31., but spent a lot of time in the Pixel Persona. I also made a few trips to Affinity Photo for a few features that AD does not support. Hope you like it.

    Each layer will demonstrate how the artwork is compiled based on an original photo.
    The Affinity Photo file is half the size of the imported PSD and yet retains all the detail.

    This should be enough to illustrate its usefulness as part of an Affinity Work Flow. Enjoy playing with the files.
