  • WIP - Cahokia symbol collection

    You're welcome :)

    One last thing! The drawing you do in Krita is only seamless if you use the wraparound screen view (W). Otherwise its just like drawing on an ordinary image.

  • [WIP] Cliff City B&W

    It looks quite complicated.

    If you aren't happy with it yet, consider working on one level at a time. Start with the base level and get that right first, and then move up a level and get that right.

    Drop shadows are not ideal in this situation, since the shadow can end up detached from the cliff. It is better to use a fairly light shadow with a reasonable blur at each level of the cliff. Don't forget to cap each level with a white polygon to cover the inside, like putting the lid on that level, or the shadows will show inside the cliff as well as outside it.

  • Too early for a CC4 wishlist thread, or is it timely?

    Curiously, there is a command line in quite a few bitmap and mixed bitmap/vector apps. They just don't call it that. Look at this in the same place in Affinity Photo. It serves much the same purpose - giving instructions on how to use the selected tool, and what modifiers you can use. So to change the command line and put it somewhere else would actually be giving CC3 yet another difference from other graphics apps.

    The only difference here is in colour and emphasis, and the fact that the command prompt text is not visible.

    My personal feelings on the command prompt are that I think the command prompt is useful, but not so critical that it should take up even more space than it already does.

  • Too early for a CC4 wishlist thread, or is it timely?

    I use a combination of different software depending on the workflow, but I won't go into detail here on a suggestion thread. Suffice it to say that I use Affinity Photo and Designer for about 80% of everything I do, as far as making new stuff goes. You don't need both, though. Photo will do.

    I hate shortcut keys other than CTRL+Z, CTRL+C, CTRL+V and CTRL+S

    Those stay the same in any app. Everything else is different between apps, and it's a complete nightmare having to remember them for all the apps I use. Worse, I get the apps confused because they are all black and charcoal these days, so I can waste a lot of time by using using the right shortcut key but in the wrong app.

    Give me buttons and menu commands any day.
