Perfect! I currently use AD2 and plan to get AP2 for this very feature. Love this! Thanks!

thank you good sir

Who else is here because they updated their computer and can't access their old CS version because of registration of serial number issues that Adobe won't help with?

Nice! Where did you go?

Thank you very much for this tutorial. Too bad we can't retrieve the template because the site doesn't open. Thank you anyway.

I’m still confused weather our image(subject) should be a sub layer of the compound mask or the compound mask should be a sub layer of the image(subject)

A bit after the fact, but I found this video very helpful in making my own snow globe version. Thanks for the video.

Thank you! I've always been confused about this. You explained it perfectly!

That was so helpful thank you! Im so clumsy with the pen tool and I never thought about working this way before. Especially those really tight corners i found a real challenge!

Thanks amazing vid. Really made my work look way better

Thanks for sharing! I could have spent months searching for the red eye tool, I think it should really be a default icon on the interface but that's just me. Thanks again!

Affinity dev team probably saw this video and made these changes by default in Affinity Photo 2 update.

Great video!!!!

I am transitioning off of photoshop and this sucks so bad these tools are so ....... not working for me does any one else have other options. .

This was a good alternative. I just used red eye removal and just clicked to the left of the pupil

Color Balance is good instrument for such goal.

Very cool! Just what I needed

to slow get on with it

Wow that is a great tutorial - worked so well and so much easier than mucking around with numbers!

amazing!!

Hello, how do you make it permanent ?

Interesting, good effect, I hit web safe dither by mistake and saw the cool effect so thought I would look it up on youtube, its amazing what you can find, thanks.

Big thanks for the puzzle download Richard, saved me a pile of work trying to figure it out.

I like the video. Addresses something I'd been toying with. While I see how you apply the gradient to a shape, how though would it be applied to a selection? I don't seem to make that work.

Thanks!

This is soo much harder then i Lightroom :(

does pantone color swatches come by default?

Great idea. Thank you!

exactly what i was looking for! thanks for making this :)

thx

So glad I found this tutorial - so creative and really well explained - brilliant thank you!!! 😁

this is the easiest, down and dirty explanation i found. for some reason my brain would not grasp “passthrough.” you’re the Laura whisperer.

I like quarter-fold cards. I wanted to design larger ones, standard-sized cards but you can't beat quarter-fold for its simplicity in designing on the computer, printing out and folding. You don't even need to print them on heavyweight cardstock. TFS! Couldn't the bleed be set to make printer print to edges?

Thank you for doing this! I'm brand new to Affinity coming from Photoshop after 18 years, but sick of the changes, subscription fees and new policies. There are many use cases for compound masks, and it can be done in PS also. I don't know the official name, but I've heard people call it "masking the mask" where it's especially useful working with complex luminosity masks and compositing work. Similar things can be accomplished using clipping masks. The process is different, but the end result the same. This video was extremely helpful to me since I'm trying to find ways to replicate my workflow in PS. Thanks again for the help!

is it possible in ipad pro ?

Thanks! Indeed the ‘James Ritson method’ like I call it. I am still frustrated that I learned this only a couple of months ago, so excellent that you share this. it’s a huge difference. With colored backgrounds like your example. (In the past i recolored with HSL😂😂) but,worthwhile mentioning, even more amazing with difficult landscapes with trees, bushes and windmills (when replacing the Sky. By the way James offers an awesome set of different skies).

Awesome tips

Do you happen to have a video on window pulls specifically for real estate photography?

Interesting. Thank you. One question : is there a way to include a photo as you did inside the mesh warp without deforming it ?

Impresionante...¡Muchas gracias!, tienes un nuevo suscriptor.

thank you - well done

As a long time PHOTOSHOP user I'm glad for this tutorial. I just started using Affinity Photo and I was asking myself the same question about Smart Objects. Thanks.

Yeah that second method worked like a charm. I was actually trying to remove pink eye.

Thanks Rich. Why doesn't Affinity just default to this setting? Why all the extra steps and layers?

I like how the noise makes the threads look more realistic.

When rotating, you can hold the shift key down to rotate to any angle.

Watched this at least 30 times to finally understand them. I even added more layers! Thanks

Confusing tutorial

The video I was looking for. Thanks a lot!

I love these tips! But, I paint on watercolor paper, it's cream colored and has texture. What's the fastest way to remove that background without doing the background erase brush? Often it will remove my lighter painted colors as well. And doing this particular tip you are sharing it doesn't remove all my background, it leaves a hazy background with the texture left behind of the papers texture and its cream color. Thank you for so many tips!
