I've been working on some more clouds, and as it turns out, once you are decent at clouds tree tops come along pretty similarly. Maybe not all trees, but certainly the ones used in my Torii Gate illustration.

I've lately been doing a study on drawing clouds in Affinity Photo. While I do enjoy the ease of using assets and merging other photos in to get clouds, I want a more Ghibli style look, and as far as I know that does require drawing. Having a tablet for this does help immensely. It does turn out clouds are pretty tough to draw. Each piece took me a few hours just on the sky. And I don't think I'll ever truly feel content with my work. I just want to keep making little tweaks and changes. But that is part of being an artists isn't it? Let me know your thoughts.

I'm a beginner in astrophotography processing. I have watched the YouTube videos by James Ritson but I do not understand all the terminology or how to get all the files (Light frames, Dark frames, Bias frames, etc.) or even what they are. I really need an introduction to astrophotography processing in Affinity Photo. Thanks very mch. -
My style is typically centered around being similar to that portrayed in Ghibli films, but today I chose to draw some snow for the first time, as well as in a new way. I wanted some story in it, so I chose to add a baboon. Is it a statue? Is it alive? Both? My main qualm with my piece is I think I could have done some better shadows. But that is something to try out in some future art.

When I create a mask, then paint on that mask in black, it is as if I am painting in dark grey. The masked layer shows through dimly and is not removed completely until I paint over it again. In the attached file, you can see that I have a red layer with a mask and a blue layer below that. When I paint on the mask, you can see that the result is a deep purple but if I paint over it again all of the red is removed and the blue shows through correctly. Brush opacity is 100%, Flow 100%, and hardness 100%. I must be missing something in the settings but I can't figure it out. Suggestions? Thanks, -dmd-

I was previously made basic vector in Adobe illustrator and then put some colour and gradient in Affinity Designer. oday i thought i sjould give a try to make this logo concept all in Affinity and i made basic drawing in Affinity Designer and then used Affinity Photo brushes to paint. Hope you like my first try

Made this on stream tonight, between Designer (most of the work) and Photo, started off as just the cube, then found the greenery assets while trying to find how to create a sphere... Then added some of the assets and things from the Affinity store. It's nothing overly special, but probably one of the nicer things I've managed to put together. Probably a lot/too much going on, but was just playing around - rather happy with how it came out. Name of it came from a viewer which is why it went from more than just the cube to what it is.

I watched a video today by James Riston on compositing and decided to try out some of what I learned. So I took a couple of stock photos, and an image of a tusk from a narwhal added some experimentation and I brought this mythical creature to life

An old friend asked me the other day if I'd done any old Zombie movie artwork recently, Nothing on today so thought I'd have a crack at Return of the Living Dead - The TARMAN zombie was painted mainly in Clip studio paint and finished in APhoto (via studiolink) then page designed in APub

Hi folks! I need to edit a rendering from Blender in Photo, however when I import the multilayered exr, all the layers are there but I can only see the top most layer in the viewport. Coming from C4D & Photoshop, I think the layer blends didn't work correctly? I was wondering if some of my settings are wrong, but all the resources about this topic I found simply open the files and it works (ignoring color mgmt.). I tried some other example exr files, but they have the same issue. Any help is more than welcome! kartoffel~ (Macbook Pro - OS X 11.2.3) I've added a small size quick render if anyone wants to test my file, and also two screenshots, how it is supposed to look (in Blender), and how it looks in Photo. untitled.exr

Hi Serif! I'm Maurizio, and I'm a graphic and comics student from Rome. I'm having trouble with the iPad version of Designer and Photo. I have a 2nd generation iPad Pro (10.5) with iPadOS 14.5. In the iPad Settings section I saw that Designer and Photos take up a lot of space, especially Designer which takes up more or less 74 GB. Although I have closed some documents and deleted some history, it seems that this indirectly increased the space occupied by the app. Before deleting some documents, the space occupied by Affinity Designer was about 55 GB. How can I reduce it? And how can I see more information about the documents open within the program? I can only see the size of a document when I save it as a file (.afdesign or .afphoto) and only on the Files app, but I'm not sure it's the same size as an "open document" within the program. There is also the cache of the edit history (which will be deleted once the document is saved) to be considered in the space occupied. It’s frustrating not being able to fully and directly view and modify all document information within the app. It would be really interesting to see this feature in a new update! Thanks for your attention, I wish you the best! Keep it up and have a nice day! Maurizio

I shoot a photo of my dear cat Indy, and I obtained a painting of him with paint mixer brush tool and some hours of work. Hope the community will like the savage gaze of my wonderful cat. Original Photo attached too. Ok he just did an echography for a gastroenteritis, and in the original photo he lacks some fur, so I have dedicated some time to "rebuild" the fur with various brushes 🤣. But my loyal 15 years old feline companion is with us again in perfect shape, don't worry! Bye 😄😄😄

Hi there, I just noticed that the ipad version doesn't stop the user from retouching protected layers immediately (repair, clone etc tools). It takes a few seconds after opening a project until the protection starts working and changes wont be applied anymore. I have neither tested if the same happens on the desktop version or if other types of changes like painting on the layer would work as well.

Hi guys, I just uploaded a new video about how to easily wrap text around any object in Affinity Photo. I hope you enjoy this video, thank you! -
A game design I’m working on. I’m beginning to understand rim light concept somewhat. I feel the glow to the left of the guy is too much, could be because my senses not fully developed yet with lighting and how it should cast. Couple things I’m struggling with: 1. Perspective of enemy on right side about to shoot w/ red flare.. seems off. It’s closest to guy behind cover. 2. Borg cube in Blue, is supposed to be enormous.. yet, I have no idea how to maintain it’s enormity, while still representing it is part of the background. I thought adding some haze, decreasing contrast & adding motion blur would do trick. Doesn’t seem like it. At the moment, it seems to be sharing foreground with red flare enemy. I have no idea how to make this better. If you scroll down to picture below of manta ray & mountain, the mountain is humongous, but it’s part of the background & manta tag is foreground. I wish I could replicate this. Perspective is difficult for me. Concept: Originals:

Learn the difference between a gradient tool and a gradient map. They are very different. One can be used to match colors between two photos which is perfect for photo manipulation, while the other is used more for stylizing your project. This is an Affinity Photo beginners tutorial and number 21 of the Digitally Fearless Power tools of Affinity Photo playlist. https://youtu.be/4-7Yvw6Yt54

I wanted to learn Photoshop a while back and this problem always infuriated me. I never knew why this happened nor how to fix it. I considered to switch to Affinity Photo. Meanwhile the same thing goes on here too. Am I doing something wrong? Everything looks blurry, fonts, even vectors, like literally everything. Help Affinity Photo 2021-04-26 14-52-00.mp4 -
I still have a long way to go, but I am proud of myself for creating this from scratch, after all these months of practicing and following along with tutorials -> finally a original piece from my mind. Man it feels good. Original Images

After seeing some people making pixel art with vectors thanks to the new anti-aliasing options for layers, I wanted to take a shot at it as well, so I made something light and fun. Found the vector shape tools very useful when creating these. I was pretty relieved that Affinity's snapping features supported 1/2 pixel snapping, since it would have been next to impossible to create symmetrical and good looking shapes without it. Also used linked layers to create symmetrical shapes for my Pikachu from Photo. Here's a small video demonstration of what's going on underneath. I really hope the devs will add the ability to animate by adding a timeline someday, since I really like the vector to pixel conversion approach. Desktop 2021.04.25 - 22.55.09.01.mp4

Hi I'm using windows 10 and Affinity Photo 1.9.2.1035 and having problem trying to "Save As" or Export as a Jpeg, PSD or Tiff. Nothing is saving my work to my hard drive. Suggestions please. Thanks Andrew
