as much as I complain about affinity photo, the more I've used it the more I like it I think

I don't know that I see myself ever using it for drawing/painting over like, clip studio, mainly just because the virtual mannequins are an insane feature and csp brush system feels more intuitive, but I've gotten a bit more comfortable with making photo do my bidding when I have to touch something up and that helps a lot

right now mainly it's just frustrating that these are two separate programs and I have to choose between CSP's mannequins and the insane flexibility of photo's non-destructive image processing and compatibility with the rest of the suite when I'm trying to do something.

although that said, I also have a bit more work to do before I can fully eliminate krita from the workflow anyway, since I haven't quite figured out how to replicate my dither patterning process in either other program yet

#the whole suite is half off for black friday so I'm definitely grabbing it #it seems like both programs get cranky when asked to do fill patterns like I've been doing #on the previous poster I had to make a full page of the pattern in krita for the texture in the black shapes on either side #(which I've been informed were meant to represent willow branches in the original hanafuda card)#and then clip it into each vector shape #which was kind of an annoying extra step to have to take #just doing a fill pattern in affinity didn't seem to want to scale the pattern correctly
