bfritts Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 (edited) Hello, I tried searching the forums and could not really find anything to answer my question so posting here. To keep thing short, I am comparing Krita, Clip Studio Paint, and Affinity Designer/Photo and am leaning towards Designer. Reason being, I like the idea of working with either raster or vectors or a hybrid of both. I will be using this software for game concept art (characters, background, etc). I personally like the idea of outlining inking a character with vectors but still being able to use raster for colors, shading, texture, depth and etc. or being able to do a full raster detailed concept piece of lets say a landscape but having the option to mix in vectors if I wish. So that brings me to my question.... how extensive is the Pixel Persona in AD for digital painting? Is it anything close to AP or Photoshop? The reason I am also looking at Krita and CSP is because they are primarily raster programs with some vector options. Thanks!

Butler To Cats Posted June 12, 2019 Share Posted June 12, 2019 @bfritts, Frankentoon has some great examples of these types of thing in Affinity Designer: using only the Pixel Persona and raster tools in Affinity Designer to create a cartoon digital painting vector outlines and flat colours, raster texture and volume another detailed tutorial example of mixing vector and raster tools vector inking (free chapter of a paid but inexpensive illustration ebook) (Disclaimer: No affiliation, just a fan and occasional customer) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bfritts Posted June 13, 2019 Author Share Posted June 13, 2019 Hello, I am looking more for how this product compares with it's raster option vs Photoshop? I am trying to determine which product to focus getting better at and learning so a trial will not do me much good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
