Hi guys. I want to take part in help for Affinity Photo. Here is custom make grass brushes and example, that was made by me. If you have any comments or ideas to add/fix them - i will adjust/update them.
Each brush - it is not only one image, but at least 3 different variations of it. So when you draw - it draws in series 1,2,3,1,2,3,....like frames in movies - so the grass texture looks more natural and random.
The brush rotates according to drawing direction/route. If you don't need it - got to brush settings Dynamic/Rotation jitter - and set it to ZERO %
 
2017.12.24 - Version updated to 0.2. See attached pictures for explanations   Also i attach small palette for green hues.
2017.12.18 - They are 4 brushes. First 3 - intensity brushes, and last one - image brush.

I had no idea Pixelmator was like that but then again I am a Windows guy. I am more than happy to pay for Major upgrades but a subscription model is something I don't like and why I loath Adobe.... 

A subscription model is nothing more than the compulsion to accept an offer. Eat or die. 
Every now and then, a paid update in between is no problem if you can decide for yourself whether to accept the offer.
(In this point, however, Affinity has let us starve a little too long ... and perhaps itself too).
 

Well,  Clip Studio Paint has moved over to subscription this week and there has been quite some backlash over it. I and many other users don't like a subscription model,  because it locks your files behind a paywall. If it co-exists with an affordable and reasonavle perpetual model,  okay. But subscription only would definitely be a no-go show stopper for me.
It's been a little quiet for a while know on 2.0. I understand it needs a lot of work,  but in terms of communication to the users it would at least be nice to publish some results from the questionnaire (even if no decisions were made on the basis of them). And then mention that these are user answers that do not reflect Serif's stance on the matter.

Sorry, we are focussing our efforts on a major release (new features and fixes) and consequently have not done any minor patches for a long time, as you say. But no not dead.

Just downloaded. Thank you so much for sharing!

Again, i understand idea to putting image to container. I appreciate such feature both - in PS and in AP. But i want to copy from such layer by my selected region with selection tool. This is straight plain and logical - this is plain common sense. The AP has just to virtually rasterise underlying image, copy some data from it according to my selection and then paste it - period. Why i need to make duplicate - > rasterise duplicated layer - > After copy and paste delete duplicated layer - why not to automate and hide all this steps from me in just COPY and PASTE way, as it is native in PS ?

The behavior in PS - i can paste bitmap or or use PLACE... as container - no problem. And when i making selection and copying - no any limiting. I can copy and paste from this selection. And no matter the underlying layer is plain raster image or raster image in container (placed with command PLACE..) But in Affinity photo - what the reason to prevent copying in the same way? I want to leave the image as it is and don't want to rasterise it, but want to copy some portion from it - is it wrong idea or behaviour? Until i make command RASTERISE - it copy whole layer and ignoring my selection area. Also when i CUT i just completely removes layer - not selected region. If it not possible - why the AP allow me to use selection tool on this layer? This is non logical. Keep in mind - that for many users the AP is a step from PS.

Margins are now more proportioned to their page sizes and press ready presets now have a minimum of 3mm bleed. 1.8.4.681 release notes

Thank you for the kind words of support. Yes, i already planning it to release, but a lot of other work ))) I am launching inks business (epoxy colorants, fountain pen inks, etc) and it takes a lot of efforts ))) I hope in the beginning of this summer - it will be added.

In you your upper example you add red gradient layer on the grayscale Beavis, i download your attached file. The effect  works as it has to be - everything is correct. But on lower example you show Beavis in RGB colors, as i can judge from your screenshot. So you need to apply the same effect but to the RGB Beavis. If you want to use masked Beavis to use as mask for gradient - set the fill opacity to 0%. Also you can play with OPACITY MODE in gradient (overlay, multiply or others) for tuning the blending mode for the most suitable result.
