  1. That's a good point but the idea was to explore what we can achieve in Affinity Designer working only with vectors. Nevertheless I can give you the AirPods in any color you want 😁
  2. Thanks Alfred. This was the challenge of January. More to come...
  3. Sometimes I just need a break... and a challenge 😁 Going back to the good old days with this work. What do you think? Cheers. P.S. - Made entirely in Affinity Designer (lots of layers, transparencies, gradients and symbols).
  4. You're welcome briandrum. Seems you're doing everything right. My other suggestion is that you play with the Strength value to see if you can minimize the problem. As an extra you can also use FX effects to get some more realism (I normally use Colour Overlay and Bevel/Emboss). Nevertheless and as stokerg mention, something is not working as it should. We don't have consistency using the Displace Filter. Hope you can get the results you need.
  5. Hi briandrum, welcome to the Forum! Did you use a black and white copy of your image with a slightly Gaussian Bur filter applied to it as your displacement map? I find this to be the best approach with the best results. I can give a look at your file if you provide it.
  6. Hi Tonitanz, welcome to the Forum! The problem you mention is real and something several users are facing, just like me. The solution I know about is to use the latest Beta version where this issue seems to be corrected. You can also expect to be fixed in the next public version.
  7. Hi everyone, I recently wrote a post on my blog covering my workflow regarding the steps I follow when I'm editing a portrait. I also made available a PDF file with the same checklist I use so you can download it. The post is available both is Portuguese and English. [PT] http://blog.pedrosoares.photo/lista-de-tarefas-edicao-de-retrato/ [EN] http://blog.pedrosoares.photo/portrait-retouching-checklist/?lang=en There are also other articles talking about Affinity and other free resources. Let me know if it was useful. Cheers
  8. Thanks Roger C. I'm always glad when I can help. I believe we should keep an open mind and a continuous desire to learn.We should also not forget that for a specific problem we could have more than one solution. This was mine. Kind regards,
  9. Hi John Rostron, Thanks for the feedback. I'm gonna try as you suggested and implement the tip of zooming every time it's pertinent. For my upcoming tutorials I'm also using a new workstation where I have a better/bigger/higher resolution display so I believe it will improve the quality of them. Thanks again, Pedro
  10. Hi Vasto7, I'm really glad that my tutorial could help you in some way. Thanks for the feedback. I invite you to keep an eye on my Youtube channel and Blog because new posts and tutorials are coming... And by the way, my last blog post was about a quick tip both for Affinity Photo and Capture One regarding retouching and has another two Macros you can download Cheers
  11. Hi Yousuf123, Hanzz made a very good point, you have to use a PNG or other format that supports transparency. But why don't you work in only one file making your design in one layer and having the t-shirt on a background layer. It could be easier and faster even to see the result as you work. Cheers
