The colour shift on this texture tile is also creating the illusion of lighting disparity, you can even out the colour by duplicating the texture layer, then Filters > Blur > Average Blur and change the blend mode of the duplicate layer to colour.

The only way I know to "easy” automate this sort of thing is to use Adobe AE and a plugin called Sheetah, in fact there is a youtube video to show how to do just what you are creating. https://aescripts.com/sheetah-spritesheet-tools/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MempwlmhK6k

So something like this... Blueprint.afphoto Saved with history so you can jog back and forth in the history panel.

But it’s not seamless?

Like these? Any other sizes you can easily create yourself and save as templates.

Yes it’s possible, you can use the clone tool to remove eyelashes and eyebrows and the healing and blemish brushes to remove blemishes, you can also use the inpainting tool. If you don’t have Affinity Photo why not download the fully functional trial and take it for a test run. https://affinity.serif.com/en-gb/photo/ scroll to the bottom of the page.

I think you are thinking of an asymmetric design PixelPest, so in that instance your reply is correct but when using symmetrical brushes flipping or rotating become null terms. In Affinity Designer you need to have or create a flip brush to be able to mirror a brush that is asymmetrical.

You can convert the circle to curves, then select the node tool and reverse curves

Is this a cool number icon or just cheesy the hair shape was made by macrovector from Freepik One of my camera’s is a Nikon 3200 very competent camera.

If uploading files continues to prove awkward, you can use img hosts like ImgBB these will host JPG, PNG, BMP, GIF, TIF, WEBP, HEIC and PDF. For affinity files a file host would need to be used like wetransfer.com, https://www.filedropper.com, Filehost.org to name a few.

Welcome to the forum Emily, you can sometimes get around the -200 error by zipping the file up and uploading as a .zip file. I wonder if, when you are selecting the symbol you are not actually selecting the components within the symbol, this would create the effect you have shown in the video, it would help to see a screenshot of the layers panel after you have selected the symbol to show which layers has actually been selected.

Yes I can see the very subtle shade, it’s literally #fefefe, oddly a pixel down from the black line it is actually #ffffff It might be better exporting with a transparent background, so I assume you are using Affinity Photo coming from Adobe Photoshop, you can set the document background to transparent from Document > Transparent Background then export to gif. -
As far as I know you would have to use Windows > Separated Mode else the tabs will be overlayed, there is no split view in the non-separated GUI
-
One final step would be to group the text so the erase blend mode doesn’t also erase the background. I’m assuming all of the suggestions are done in Affinity Designer? Text not grouped and the erase blend mode set, it burns through all layers. Text grouped preventing the erase blend mode from burning through the background/texture.

There are some great illustrators on here like @VectorWhiz @StuartRc and @VectorVonDoom to name a few I'm sure if you asked they would give you some advice on best practice or at least some of their methods. They produce some beautiful work.

Just that it happens on the fly so as you draw in one side or add objects it appears in the other.

I noticed you were doing half a car, a tip that might prove useful is to use symbols. In the example below I created a rectangle as a container for the decals, I then placed an instance of that symbol on the workspace and flipped it and aligned it. Drawing in one symbol was also reflected in the flipped one. There is an issue with text, so it reflects the text like a reflection in water instead of rotating it.

That looks like a Lancia Stratos Italia😏

see my reply to the same question here:

Don’t convert it to curves, leave it as text (Font) this is probably where you are going wrong. Forgot don’t use EPS, use PDF as the export option.

Just been Brush doodling and made a Fluffy cloud brush, only prerequisite is you have to have The Orbs little fluffy clouds playing in the background as this creates the perfect zen state for sky fluffification 😁 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FHixChYgGRI Here is a simple example of the sky fluffer in action lol! I used the luminosity blend mode on the layer because it picks up the sky colour making it look a bit more natural. Here’s the brush: Dex's Cloud Brush.afbrushes You can also use the brush with the eraser tool to make subtractive clouds to further enhance the randomness and interplay between layers, so although I have one layer in the image above creating several layer can get you even more realism. Like so...

What about desaturating the layer and then feathering the, was blue is now grey, colour with either a blur brush or a large eraser using a texture brush. A screen shot would probably help, but also feathering the clone brush brush more.
