how to make a clipping mask of a artwork

[Niels Reinier Ter horst]

good afternoon,

I'm Niels and I use for a really short time affinity designer, I was always using illustrator because of my school. I wanna know how I can make aan clipping mask from a artwork with all-over print on a jeans. I will send you a example to show you what I mean.

In ilustrator a had put a photo of a jean, and I made a pattern of a logo, and I really wanna do it with this program. I hope you can help me.

See for clipping vs. masking ...

• Masking vs Clipping layers (vid tutorial)
• ADesigner & APhoto clipping vs masking layers
• Clipping vs Masling difference (forum here)
• ... and so on ...

Basically (in quick short words) what you want to do is ...

1. have the photo/image with a jeans on
2. then a cutout portion of the jeans part on top as another layer ...
3. ... where you can clip your pattern, style or another image to
4. you can then use layer blend options to intersect your pattern overlay to the underneath jeans image layer if wanted

The technics used here are those as are used for making mockups etc.

A quick uncomplete example with Aphinity Photo here (just to give you a rough idea, with no step 4 layer overblending applied and just used a style as pattern ). - In Affinity Designer I would instead of making pixel based jeans cutouts like in APhoto, just retrace the jeans parts as vector shapes, which will then be filled with the clipped pattern and then blended over on the underlayed image.
