Bentox Posted July 25, 2021 Share Posted July 25, 2021 (edited) I've been working on an exhibit on the social mouvement in Belgium since the beginning of the industrial revolution.It's a long project started in september 2020, delayed many times due to the covid and finally released in june 2021. The content is partly inspired by a comic book I relaesed in january 2020 on the Belgian social security system history. Done on Adobe, and as so many people I just wanted to quit. So I finally played with Affinty on the hard side, directly on big size filed for final production. The stress was High, very high ! I messed up a little with Publisher but finally get my way through the learning curve and, oh boy, I loved the export persona option. It saved my day ! Here is the pictures off the exhibition in Dison, near Verviers, the drowned town in southern part of Belgium.

dannyg9 Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 Speechless comes to mind. Stunning, gorgeous, well thought out and thought provoking. This piece does what every public installation of this sort of work is meant to do. Make the observer stop, look, read, engage, and ultimately enjoy. If I'm understanding this correctly, you created and or finished this entirely with the Affinity suite, yes? Superb job and proves once again that adobe is stale and overpriced. I truly wish I could see this in-person and walk through this magnificent piece! Bentox, jmwellborn, Wosven and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wosven Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 We would certainly need such exposition here in France, to remind people and especially politics how important it is and they shouldn't destroy it like they are doing piece by piece...

I truly wish I could see this in-person and walk through this magnificent piece! Thank you dannyg9, I appreciate. Yes, I made the switch in january. Usually, I never change my tools in production. But for whatever reason, I felt the need to try something different. I didn't really know the suite, just played a little with the demo in Photo and Designer. Considering the price and the stability of the software, I just bought it, quite sure that the learning cruve wouldn't be to difficult. I always work with pencil, than ink with real brush, than scan and adjusting everything on softwares. I mainly used Photo and Designer and Clip studio for some details. dannyg9 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bonjour Wosven, France definitively needs that. As England, and other european countries. We all share this common history. Apart from Germany which created the first social system in 1894, every other countries managed to make it real in 1944-45, after the war. There is a good documentary on the french subject named "La sociale" from Gilles Perret. Highly recommended. Wosven 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
