    AffinityJules got a reaction from StuartRc in Continuing Exploration of Metra Prime (picture 4)   
    .....Discovery by the research team of an energy sphere which they have coined, "The Power Marble."
     
    Apart from 4 base photographs, desert sands, distant rock structure, tourists, well hole, all concept designs created entirely within Affinity Photo using shapes and texture samples.

    AffinityJules reacted to Kasper-V in Vector drawing, animated (a bit rude!)   
    A few days ago I made a rather silly picture I titled The perils of poorly-maintained Gents' lavatories (that's men's public restrooms in American). And then I thought I could animate this! There's nothing on view that actually requires censoring, I should point out. The moving parts are all on separate layers, so each one transfers to a layer in MoviePlus X6. (MoviePlus: still doing the business, and more intuitive to use than a lot of other video editors 🙂) I recorded the sound effects in the kitchen on my iPhone; the little bit of speech will be recognisable to Goon Show fans.

    AffinityJules reacted to GarryP in Video Game Box Insert Experiment – Affinitia 2   
    The sequel to the game box insert here: https://forum.affinity.serif.com/index.php?/topic/175702-video-game-box-insert-experiment-–-affinitia/
    This version is a little darker because, in the game, ‘it’s all been kicking off’, so the mood has changed.
    As with the other experiment, it’s not a real product; it’s just me messing around with stuff.
    @jmwellborn Good news; the developers have been listening and this one is for Mac too.

    This, by rights, should've been picture 4 in the series, but due to a major computer malfunction I lost the version (3) I was working on.

    My wife is a RABBIT FANATIC. She even calls herself "RabbitMom". Over the years, she's begun to take on some of the attributes of her pets. Here's the proof!! 🤪

    AffinityJules reacted to Kasper-V in Anaeroid barometer   
    I made a picture of an old-fashioned barometer because . . . well, because I can! Who needs an excuse? I discovered quite a while ago that I enjoy making things with scales and pointers, for some reason; and the Version 2 Duplicate dialogue makes it so much easier to make circular scales. The woodwork is created from a stock photo of a piece of wood, which I sawed into quarters and turned a profile edge (digitally, that is ). All the rest is made from vectors, using three photos for reference and picking out the best features. (There were some curlicues on the thermometer scales, but I forgot to do them! ) The red letters are from a freebie font called Great Victorian, which has plain and swashed cap forms.

    Just take a look around sites that have free pictures, or search google for images of splashing rain.
    I used the attached picture to extract the splashes.

    Water splashes have been selected from a photograph using the 'load to pixel selection' in the channels option.
    The water splashing on the ambulance roof is exaggerated and too big - to show the effect, but in actuality it will need to be smaller.
    Using real water samples generally give good results when sized and treated properly.

    Here's a practical example for a suggested finished image (local layer adjustments pending).
    Apart from the rain effects (for example only) I had added 2 gradients.

    Same image as above but with added water along the base of the umbrella hood.
    This is done using a layer with 'Bevel and Emboss' adjusted to create the desired affect. Adjust the opacity to blend. My example here is amplified in order to show it.
    Try it and experiment.

    That works.
    You could move them even further to the right if you wanted to, there's plenty of room there.
    If you imagine their line of sight, they appear to be looking slightly to the left of Georgie, so moving them right a bit wouldn't hurt at all and would probably line up better.

    You can experiment with rain drops and such to get a dripping effect. A quick example I have set here, and although a rough example, it demonstrates the principle.
    There may be rain drops available as brush sets but I don't know of any apart from rain brushes.
    Splash brushes are definitely available and they can be useful, too.
    Reflections on the driveway will only work if it's lit enough to see a reflection in the first place. Right now I don't see any driveway at all.

    AffinityJules reacted to Allard in Early sixties image   
    Hi, I am new to this forum. I am using AD-2 on my iPad air (2022) with an Apple pencil since 2021. 
    The vector image I am showing here is in the memory of my youth back in the early sixties. I am more interested in graphic quality rather than photographic realism. For my figures I am using photographs from journals and the internet as inspiration, mostly to get the proportions right.

    AffinityJules reacted to jmwellborn in Morpeth Castle with apologies to Cezanne   
    One selection later, with the output as a mask, then the color picker to match the background colour in the image for a rectangle under the image layer,  then a white balance adjustment to get rid of almost all of that colour, then a levels adjustment to create a more defined image, then three pixel layers with varying opacity levels to provide some colour with some watercolour brushes, then a merge visible. Then off to a pastel plugin. Then back to Photo for another levels adjustment. Then a vibrance adjustment. The result: Morpeth Castle, "a Scheduled Ancient Monument and a Grade I listed building at Morpeth, Northumberland, England ... restored by the Landmark Trust and is now available as a holiday rental home." My source comes from the British Library, digitised image from page 82 of "The Local Historian's Table Book of remarkable occurrences, historical facts, traditions, legendary and descriptive ballads, connected with the Counties of Newcastle-upon-Tyne, Northumberland, and Durham.,," which is in the Public Domain.
