![]() ![]() This filter is going to darken the texture up a bit, however we’ll add another Levels adjustment to correct that. I’ll adjust my settings until I have more background texture, but I don’t lose the original veins or strings created with the first Perlin Noise filters. To add a little more depth to the marble texture, we’re going to add a third Perlin Noise filter. ![]() Once you’ve got your settings where you want them, choose Merge (the top left icon at the bottom right of the settings box). Yours may be a bit different, depending on the settings you chose when adding the Perlin Noise but play around with the Levels until you like how it looks. Next use the gamma slider to adjust the “strings,” until you see some of the lines break up a little and bring the Output Black setting up to soften it a bit. Keeping the Black at 0%, adjust the White setting down until you begin to really see the “strings” from the cloud filter. Now that we have our base noise in place, let’s use some adjustments to get that marble feel. This, along with some adjustments, is what’s going to ultimately give us the marble feel. Use the contextual sliders to bring back the highlights, and pull in some string like texture. Because of the Difference blend mode, it’s going to turn black. Once you’ve accepted the first filter, go ahead and add another Perlin Noise filter. We’re going to be adding it a second time so it’s important that you accept the first one before moving on. At the top of the screen, change the blend mode to, “Difference.”įinally, use the checkmark at the top to accept the filter. Using the contextual sliders on the side, play with settings until you have something that has larger, billowy “clouds,” and is a bit softer. In the Filters Studio (see magnified icon above) go to the heading, “Noise,” and choose Perlin Noise. ![]() If you’re coming from Photoshop, this is Affinity’s equivalent of the filters Clouds and Difference Clouds. This process begins with creating clouds, or as they’re known in Affinity Photo, Perlin Noise. In your Layers Studio, tap the plus sign and choose “Pixel Layer.” Using Perlin Noiseīefore we can begin, we need an empty pixel layer to work with. I’m leaving my transparent background off because it doesn’t really matter in this instance. I’ve set mine to 3000 pixels square, but set yours to whatever size works best for your needs. To avoid issues, make sure your dpi is at least 300, and set the size of the document to the largest size you might print. This will be a raster texture, so, if you plan on using your texture in something that might be printed, you’ll need to set your canvas up accordingly. Once you’re done, you can use it as is, or read on, and learn how to create a seamless texture from it. In the first part of this tutorial, we’re going to create the marble texture. So, without further adieu, let’s create some seamless marble texture. While I’ll be using the iPad version of the app in this tutorial, the desktop version works exactly the same. With a few filters, and a pinch of adjustments, you can create your own marble texture, and make it seamless, in Affinity Photo. While there are tons of sources out there for all sorts of textures, knowing how to make your own means your work will always be unique. Why do I love making my own textures? Let me count the ways… ![]()
