Affinity needs an artistic filters section and..

[re45]

I have been using affinity and i like it but i realized that i was unable to get an effect without doing a lot of tweaks, it's really troublesome not having these filters built in.

(What i wanted to do: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fNQVdfRfMWg    and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8HtikLtkctY  )

Here is what i think would be great if added:

• Artistic filter section with along with multiple posterize  and sketch filters
• Additional pattern options in Halftone section
• Options to add luminance (Example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_7E0w9Jsabg )
• I'm not sure about it but i think, there's no option to remove matte so an option to do it would be awesome.

I'm not saying that the effects i wanted on my photos were unachievable !  in fact i was able to get close to what i wanted, but it was really pain to go through tweaks to get it. I'm sure many people would like these things added as well.

Thanks
