Your tone mapping really brought your image together. It is a really good end result. I learn something new as I rarely use it to develop my pictures.

[@MikeAffinityTuts]

Hi Claude thanks so much for watching, it is amazing how powerful Affinity is, I am still learning everyday, I think thats what I love about this software, that and the people in the community. Thanks for all your support 🙏🏼

[@tompatton2086]

Wow! Michael, you are the real deal. Thanks for these videos. 😊

[@MikeAffinityTuts]

HI Tom Thank you, that is very kind of you, much appreciated and glad you liked the tutorial 🙏🏼

[@paganbornusa]

Excellent video!! When I saw how many images you were using, I almost passed it by as "being complicated". Happily, I decided to watch and follow along. It turned out so well that my mind is racing with new possibilities of things to create. Also, thank you for using the Tone Mapping Persona. I never even clicked on it until your tutorial, and now I'm obsessed in discovering what else if can do!

[@MikeAffinityTuts]

HI and welcome so glad you stopped and watched, and really happy that you enjoyed the tutorial. Thank you I appreciate it very much and I hope you enjoy some of the other tutorials just as much.....Mike

[@davidfimio6637]

I had completely forgotten about tone mapping....great video as always!

[@MikeAffinityTuts]

Thanks David, yes it a pretty powerful, there's a great tutorial by Scott Williams who uses it to create the painterly effect. I will link it here just in case you hav not seen it yet kzbin.info/www/bejne/hni5qZigaqefrZo. Thanks for all your great support 🙏🏼

[@xzenor]

@@MikeAffinityTuts hey thanks. I hardly use tone mapping mostly because the changes are all destructive. It's nice to see if it's worth using for specific effects. Thanks

[@E4gleheart]

The devil is in the details, Michael. You really got that. Amazing work. Thanks for giving us another well spent 17 minutes.👌😎

[@MikeAffinityTuts]

Hi Jon thanks I appreciate it, makes my day when people find the tutorial helpful and that they can then use in there own work. Thanks again......Mike 🙏🏼

[@janvanschie7153]

Another great tutorial Michael. Thank you.

[@MikeAffinityTuts]

Thank you so much 😊

[@philipmoggridge1378]

Really loved your video and easy to follow presentation. I used my own pictures and your zip, but not up to your standard. For a first attempt I'm pleased. Keep up the good work, I'll keep an eye open for future ideas.

[@MikeAffinityTuts]

Hi Phillip thanks for your support, you will get better and better for sure. So glad you like the tutorials ..Mike

[@widjet25]

Michael, I learn so much from your videos. I see that was the second video that you used the dark and light colors from the background for a better blend of an image. That looks easier than using the gradient map adjustment. You don’t need the Midtones color.

[@MikeAffinityTuts]

Hi Eddie yes this is probably one of my favourite ways to try and make an image fit in to the back ground. I have watched some tutorials that make it difficult and technical, but it does not have to be. There are so many ways to achieve the same results in composites,so I am always looking for ways so it does not scare people away thinking it’s to hard. Thanks for the amazing comment and all your support means a lot ...Mike

[@patricklancien1506]

Another great video, thanks!👍

[@MikeAffinityTuts]

Hi Patrick thanks for watching much appreciated 🙏🏼

[@edlondon3717]

When making the zipper, wouldnt it been easier to simply copy and mirror the right zipper to the left side? Good video!

[@MikeAffinityTuts]

Hi Ed yes of course you could do that for sure, Have you given it a go ? I like to show whats you can do and try to keep it as best I can for the beginners as well as the more advanced. Thanks for watching and thanks for the comments much appreciated 😊

[@ragingpoop8658]

cool. can you do a cyborg face, half human, half robot? I saw your cyborg robot video but found it a bit too simple.

[@MikeAffinityTuts]

Cool idea! will have to look in to it and see what I can come up with

[@gregwaugh8069]

Hi mate, I suggest you jump on the crypto art train. Your art is awesome. NFTs are the future

[@MikeAffinityTuts]

HI Greg funny you should mention that I was just reading up on the NFT's I still don't really understand it all yet but it amazes me for sure

[@xzenor-art]

That shit is complicated man..... I'm looking into it as well but damn, it's tough and it's also pricy..

[@MikeAffinityTuts]

@@xzenor-art yes it’s popular now so the gas prices are high

[@webphone5167]

Nice work as always. Please, is there any way to get smooth edges after you use Erase Flood Tool. Everything look like stairs in the edges after using this tools. Is there any anti aliasing option in Affinity? Thank you

[@MikeAffinityTuts]

Hi In most cases, the smoothing is best done before cutting the pixel data out, as after it has been cut it is harder to smooth. You can do this by refining a selection and using the feather tools. You can also click on select and refine edges. I hope this helps a little ....Mike

[@webphone5167]

@@MikeAffinityTuts Thank you for your time

[@sergemarcoux1341]

I am francophone and the default langage of my computer is French. Therefore, your tutorials come with French subtitles at the bottom of the screen. Machine - translated these sub-titles are usually atrocious (kind of :" L'esprit est prompt mais la chair est faible" translated by: "the ghost is fast but the meat is flat"). I would like to assure you that the ones appearing at the bottom of your tutorials are incredibily good: spelling is perfect, grammar without mistake and the accents placed correctly on the right voyels : please do congratulate your translation-machine on my behalf.

[@MikeAffinityTuts]

Hi Serge thank you, though I can not take the credit for this. The subtitles are generated by KZbin so its good to hear that they are reasonable good as I think they are a very important too have on the Video for sure. Serge thank you so much for your wonderful comments and for supporting my channel....Mike

H Michael been enjoying your tutorials but like others I cant get the zip to appear in my downloads folder, the LUTs are fine but cant see what happens with the zip any thoughts

[@MikeAffinityTuts]

Hi David I have sent you an E-mail..Mike

[@skysavvydrone]

Thanks for this tutorial. Following along, but, apparently I can't get the zipper either. Can you assist? Got the email, but no attachment, etc. Based on the comments, it looks like no one has successfully downloaded the zip file without you having to get involved. Possible to make it available somewhere more easily accessible? I'm at a standstill!

@@MikeAffinityTuts Thanks - as before, I get to the thank you page but no download link - I have searched my downloads folder (just in case) it is not there, either. Maybe something to do with mu browser/firewall setup. I love your work, by the way - have been appreciating and watching your tutorials for months.

Yep - something definitely strange. I just tried again with the virus resource, and the link to the virus graphic appeared on the thank you page, but not on the zip resource.
