Shih Posted October 4, 2019 Share Posted October 4, 2019 I used a simple bitmap trace app to produce a SVG graphic from a photo like Below. Surprisingly, I like it. (First pic is the photo, the second is the SVG) Can I make this kind of SVG graphic from photos with Affinity Photo? If so, how should I do it?

firstdefence Posted October 4, 2019 Share Posted October 4, 2019 You could get the effect but it would be applied as a raster effect not vector, something like the posterise filter should give a similar effect. added a bilateral blur to smooth things out a bit Also added a curves adjustment to tone down the garish colours Quote iMac 27" 2019 Somona 14.3.1, iMac 27" Affinity Designer, Photo & Publisher V1 & V2, Adobe, Inkscape, Vectorstyler, Blender, C4D, Sketchup + more...

Fixx Posted October 5, 2019 Share Posted October 5, 2019 Problem with Posterize is that colour selection is not adaptive like in autotrace. It uses always the same colour components as you can see in histogram. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

firstdefence Posted October 5, 2019 Share Posted October 5, 2019 Inkscape or one of the online tracers is the only option for the foreseeable future.
