  1. it is aviable on YouTube as well and a colourized version with French subtitles we needed. Colourization is still terrible! It was fun to finally see it but it's really Nyah who steals the show!
  2. I made this before I saw the movie. The lead character was compelling enough visually and it fit in with my other early sci-fi flick poster projects. Having seen it now, I can't say I would watch it again but I would recommend that someone see it once. The actress playing the invader steals the show and the effects are not as bad as the budget would suggest.
  3. An update. Suggestions made me add a little more interest to it without, I hope, making the design less clean looking.
  4. Well in 1956 the clean look was in for spaceships. Clean and smooth. That didn't really change until Star Wars changes the aesthetic!
  5. I don’t mind suggestions, this was a fun project I did mostly because i have been sick and wanted to accomplish SOMETHING. I think highlighting the alien more might be change to make. I like simplicity but there are ways to keep that and add a little more.
  6. For those interested, here is the final corrected version of the poster that was printed. Those requested a copy, you will need to tell me what size you want it and if there are additional changes you wish.
  7. I will post the latest version this week for you to look at. Let me know what size you are thinking for printing. This can be made quite large I think. Imhave been sick all week so it will be a little slow getting to this.
  8. That is true, I often do an entire illustration in black and white and “colourize” it at the end when all the values and contrasts look right. I dont feel ready for a full colour portrait in designer yet.
  9. Thank you so much. It was a big challenge for me and i would suggest giving it a try. I think doing it in black and white might be cheating but one step at a time. I still see many issues with Flash but i like the overall composition and I love Publisher especially with the studio like feature added. IT makes creating stuff so much more fluid than other software.
  10. Extra points for "Affinity and beyond!". Thank you so much, it took awhile to draw all the skulls... including a few I didn't end up using. My only regret is thatI didn't print it larger.
  11. How very nice of you! The current poster is 12x18 inches but it could be made larger if you like. The changes were made, I really appreciated the feedback I got! I can send you a file in a format you like for printing. If you wanted to send me a few dollars it would be appreciated. I sell prints of my work but lately that has been a little more costly so you might know a place that is more economical!
  12. Drawn in Designer, all vectors and assembled in Publisher. I have never used vectors to do anything close to portrait so it was a challenge. Flash took several tries just to get it where it is now.
  13. Sad for me as well. My imac is not old and powerful, this was a feature i was looking forward to but i cant buy a new computer every year.
  14. I needed an image of an old movie camera and decided to make an illustration of my old Suer 8 camera from the early 80s. I didn't add ALL the detail on it but it came out much more photorealistic than I was aiming for somehow. I haven't used Adobe Illustrator in many years now but I can't imagine trying something like this in that program. I just always found it too aggravating to use for anything like this.
  15. Merci! I am finding Designer very satisfying for more subjects than I originally thought!
  16. Another old sci-fi classic poster project. The hand and martian war machine as well as the title logo were done in Designer. The earth is an old 3D render I did in Cinema 4D and the stars are a photo I took in Colorado years ago. I also drew the Martian probe which came out fine but didn't really fit in the end composition.
  17. Thank you! After I was done I could see as Blu-ray release artwork too. Not that I would ever get hired for anything like that!
  18. I drew the three main elements in Designer separately and then arranged them with the text in Publisher. The project took about 35 hours total.
  19. I will have to try that. To be honest, since i never know if the numbering will work or stay working , i have been putting off even looking at my book files hoping an update will fix the issues. Thanks so much for a possible solution!
  20. I am going to go through all that advice and see what I can do with my current project. It was working fine for a while and it seems whenever there is an update it breaks. I won't even try indexing yet! Thanks you for the response and I hope this gets fixed and made more reliable. It is an important feature I wanted from using Indesign ( plus ePub creation).
  21. Not recommending the books feature if you can because it doesn't work well is one thing, but there are more than a few cases where having a this feature really can make things a lot easier. Moving chapters around in a long book made as a single document is a nightmare as is working on a magazine where often sections and ad pages change position as the project is developed. If we could could put chapters in a group that could be named and repositioned in the pages panel that would go a long way to avoiding the book problem though as someone has designed a few books of short stories that often go through many revisions as the book is being laid out, being able to use the books function reliably would be REALLY helpful! I do hope Affinity works more on this feature I was so excited when they introduced it!
  22. We had a massive water main break a few days ago near my house and while i still had power, no one else, even the neighbours did. I did lose cable, and internet so I couldn't do client stuff and decided to do some life sketching in my front garden. Relaxing. I decided to turn them into colour Designer illustrations.
  23. I agree! I know Apple Motion isn't a big app for many people but it IS a viable alternative to After Effects and having Designer save to Motion project as Pixelmator does would be amazing and really improve my workflow.
  24. Just for fun and more practice I decided to draw the Jupiter 2 as well. It was more challenging than I thought.
