Hi dreyko,

Welcome to the forums.

One person to ask would be Dan aka giantlobsterprd, as he knows his stuff.

I ended up using Inkscape to make the half tones with a modification of this guys instructions.

I set my original gradient art in affinity to solid on one side of the gradient and transparent on the other, then imported it into Inkscape.

Instead of using as my "1. Pick from the drawing" setting, I used [Opacity]. Once I had my half tones I took them back into Affinity and layed them over my original art. I set the background image to a solid, and my half tones to the other color of my gradient.

Original art:

My results:
