Photoshop Bad Habits

[ButchZ]

Im trying to break free of Photoshop because or numerous license key issues they haven't corrected yet and stupid cloud programs.

As i play with Affinity Photo, I am doing video tutorials which are GREAT!

 

But one I havent found yet and trying to break myself of Adobe Habits.

 

I do a lot of blending/copying/pasting between 2 pictures.

 

I used to do in Photoshop "PASTE INTO" a selection.

 

In Affinity, how is this done, with masks?
In the menu "EDIT" there is a paste into command but doesn't work like Adobe.

 

For instance, I do this for buddy's FB page, put their heads on women's bodies.

 

So what area should I start in to take 1 picture of buddys head, and paste "INTO" area on picture 2 to replace head?

I Just need an area to start and will watch tutorial from there.  Need the right direction to follow.

Thanks in advance

Hi ButchZ,

 

I'm a little confused by your description but it sounds as though you are trying to find out how to face swap using Affinity Photo the below video should help :)

THAT WAS IT!!!!

I guess I didnt look hard enough.

Sometimes, since Im leaning AP, that while in a project, I get stuck on a procedure.
Some of the terminolgy is change and not sure what it is called and dont know where to look except to ask.

Thanks.

Much easier than Adobe i my opinion
