Cartoon Effect

[ByronMc]

I'm trying to find a Cartoon effect app for Affinity Photo.

Welcome to the Serif Affinity Forums, @ByronMc.

I presume you’re trying to find a method rather than a separate app. If so, take a look here:

If you want to try an external app, check out XnSketch and FotoSketcher (both free).

Thank you, I think that's a very good start.

I use Gmic plugin to do cartoon effects.

You will need to install Gimp and run Gmic from there, I never got Gmic to work with Affinity Photo.

Forum hint: If you want to "tag" a user you need to:

1. Type the @ sign, then
2. Start typing their username (must type, not paste), then
3. Select their name from the popup list that appears. The more characters of the name you have typed, the shorter the list will be. But you must select from it, even if you've typed the complete name.

If you've done all that correctly, their name will appear highlighted. For example: @Cmak.

Try G'MIC online.

The cartoon effect is under the category "Artistic".

I'm always on the lookout for image processing apps - I'll check out the suggestions above.

Additionally:

Topaz Studio (IMO still sets the standard)

Boris Optics

Deep Art Effects (Limited controls and clunky UX, but can get some nice results.)
