Hey there I've been using Drawplus for 6 years and now want to try Affinity. I installed the most recent version this morning.
So far it seems similar to X8 but am having trouble finding where to find fonts. Do we have to load them from another source? I only see a few font options.
Another feature I used extensively in drawplus was the STYLES feature. How can I get all of what X8 had to offer, but into Affinity? Seems to be a lot missing from this feature. I.e. the glass feature in X8 had about 20 different selections from whereas Affinity only has 1. That's just one category, the other categories such as metallic are equally devoid of selections. In fact most of the categories from x8 aren't showing up in Affinity at all.
I also can't seem to find how to crop shapes and images which was located in the ARRANGE feature in X8. I.e. crop to bottom or top, or clip to bottom or top.
I think I can figure everything else out. Any help is greatly appreciated.

yeah, I read "font" and thought the OP must have been talking about the font used on the kanji in his one image. thanks for clarifying. Well, that puts a new perspective on things.

Very cool, and inspirational work! I love the geometrical approach you used, the results are quite stunning. I think your use of space, shapes, and color is genius. Thanks for sharing your artwork.

Brilliant work, love them both.

This is fairly gross, but it's excellently drawn... What room are you going to hang this in? :D

Great looking and fun character designs.
Alfred, that's an interesting solution to the frets, so long as the object your working with has parallel geometry. However, how would you solve the problem if you're working with non-parallel lines? You could still do your scaling solution but the fret lines will eventually cross over the edges. Is there a way to trim lines in Affinity?

This is very impressive work! Great idea to start with the silhouette too. I love the mood of the darker rhino's face and the detail is excellent.

Thank you very much for the replies. It's extremely unfortunate to have so much missing. I mainly work on military aviation and rely heavily on those features. Already have a large workload backing up, which means I don't have time to recreate the missing features I already have available in X8. Perhaps later iterations of AD will include them. Thanks again.
