wow nice setup bro

It just keeps getting better each year. Maybe your post would be valid in 2014 or something, but it's comfier than PS at this point

>>3464956
Here you go! Happy pride month!

At this point anything is comfier than PS

shoo shoo (((Adobe))) shills

>>3464956
I just use the basic animation fag setup.

>>3465103
It's actually pretty good now.

>>3464956
Oh, hey, I actually got it working!

Now, to fiddle around with brushes for the next two hours, even though I'm going to end up using simple hard and soft rounds and nothing else because I'm not very good at this :^)

sure why not

>>3465222
how so?

is this fully capable of doing professional work?

I've always ended up on photoshop because i've started on this at first and tried csp but got annoyed with how i had to keep changing my macros for each software.

I generally want to just stick with one software to be as comfy as possible, i really liked sketchbook for copic colors, could you do something like this on kritika?

>>3465444
Krita is totally capable of delivering professional work. Maybe photoshop has some crazy photo manipulation tools, that I missed out on in my 3 years of using it. But it's likely most people would be better off with Krita. (If you actually at how people are uaing it.)
Krita is different you don't have a seperate eraser, you rather toggle it with 'e' or swap to the previous brush preset. For me Kritas smudge brushes perform better than photoshop ones and with 4.0 we got multi-threaded brushes.
I'm shilling for Krita, because Adobe is an evil corporation, that restricts is users with DRM and does other shady things.
No source code = No control
Krita will thrive

>>3464956
I haven't updated since I downloaded Krita, what am I missing out on?

>>3465741
O . o. This looks like 2.9 or some shit.
What version is it?

I'm all for Krita but the fucking Transform performance is abysmal
there's also dumb UI bugs here and there

>>3464956
how do i make my krita look cute as yours, please tell me

>>3466105
Just change the color and font. Go into settings, you'll see

>>3465741
The only thing that has impacted my workflow is brush multithreading. So if you notice any lag, even tiny lag, it may be worth an upgrade. You might be surprised

>>3465119
oxygen is free too

>>3464956
Krita is awesome for pixel art too.
Krita workflow is the best.
Also a biggie: Krita enchances creative mentality, PS not so much. Krita to natural media and back is so easy

ugh

>>3464956
I've been trying to imitate this one seems productive.

>>3466462
No comment on IE, Minecraft, Microsoft office (implying pre-built), a broken shortcut, and FL Studio?

Come on man.

>>3466465
It's not for everyone. I need to have wide RGB color sliders for precise colorpicking. I have a rather unusual way of thinking about color, coming from a scientific background.
I still need to play around with custom python scripts now that it's so easy to integrate into Krita.
You should try RGB sliders when doing some color study or so. Think in term of "is this bluer? Or do I need more red or green?". It's incredebly precise compared to other color picking methods and hue variations come naturally.

>>3466470
That's chat tier of "I don't give a shit!".

>>3466470
That's Chad tier of "I don't give a shit!".

>>3464956
Why the fuck do you have that much of the screen taken up by shit that isn't the canvas?
>>3465434
You too.
>>3466465
What is wrong with you people?
Are you the same guys that use Linux just to rice your desktop that you then use for nothing but posting about your riced Linux desktop online?

>>3468826
>muh linux rice
shut the fuck up and draw already, retard. this>>3466465 is optimized for a whole comic because you have all of your tools right fucking there plus all the pages

>>3468836
>shut the fuck up and draw already, retard.
It's not like I'm the one that started the layout thread to talk about your riced software layouts, dipshit.
>this>>3466465 is optimized for a whole comic because you have all of your tools right fucking there plus all the pages
For what purpose? You realize how little of that shit matters in the actual drawing process compared to seeing the actual image you're working on, yeah? You *do* draw, don't you?

I use CSP, this is how I roll

>>3466454
why KDE? why use a desktop environment at all? every DE ive tried was unintuitive, fucking ugly, bloated out the ass with shit i'd never need, and hindered productivity
i would rather take the time to configure dwm to my liking than debloat KDE

>>3468860
What kind of moron does it take to look at this random jap that's made a frankenstein interface by mashing together a layout artists' interface with a drawing interface that's two shelves wider than it even needs to be and think "Hmmm, looks productive"?
>>3468881
oh lmao, I missed that post, literally a Linux ricer. I had no idea. Makes sense now, though.

>>3468860
>>3468884
So basically, you're just retarded, you don't draw, and you're just hear to rant about "linux ricers."

I think you meant to click on >>>/g/

>>3468899
Great post bud but you seem to have forgotten to include an actual argument.

>>3468912
>muh argument
This is the kind of thing you post when you literally have no argument and you don't even draw

>>3468914
You still haven't addressed my first argument, namely what the fuck is this and how many times do I need to be dropped on my head to start thinking it's a good idea like you apparently do?

>>3468919
>argument
lol this retard thinks he has points and important things to say.

That's called efficient tool management, something you clearly have no idea about, because you don't draw.

>>3468884
I don't really get what you're going on about man, you can quickly enter fullscreen canvas, and exit just as quickly to have the whole interface at your disposal. I think you just have autism, that or you're trying to shill some other shit that doesn't let you customize the interface.

This thread was created to see how people use their software, because your workspace and
set up reveals a lot about the artist. For anyone that actually works it will be important to have an optimized set up.

>>3468980
>optimized set up
Everyone is different, so "optimized" to you may mean something different to someone else

Get out of here grandpa

>>3468921
This is an interface thread, every post here's an unimportant shitpost by default. It's missing the forest for the trees by a pretty massive margin.
>>3468926
You can get at all the immediately useful tools in CSP without it taking up a third of your screen thanks to this thing called a hotkey. Anything not immediately necessary springing into place any time you exit fullscreen isn't really an advantage, since the odds of wanting the important stuff up while you're drawing way outweigh the odds of wanting to see the entire print layout. Double-shelfing the tool presets and the brush sizes in that quoted interface is 100% unnecessary, literally no reason to do it, and the stretched thing I cropped out normally lies down the side instead of using a tonne of grey space on nothing. I'd imagine this'd all be obvious the second you start actually using the interface but I think from all your kneejerk projecting we both know you don't actually do that.
This has the same tools in it except I shelved layer properties because that's another thing you'll only ever want to look at very infrequently and don't have the print layout up because you'll literally never want that while drawing.

>>3466481
>I have a rather unusual way of thinking about color, coming from a scientific background.
Can you elaborate? I'm a physics major and RGB seems very inconvenient to me.

>Think in term of "is this bluer? Or do I need more red or green?
Well, you think in these terms with HSV too, when picking the hue, but then it's very easy to change the value, unlike with RGB.

>>3469076
>being this retarded
I didn't even read your post, doesn't it suck to type all that hahahahahahaha

>>3468869
Yeah, their interface is so ugly that I'd work like that too.

>>3469094
So much customization, though.

>>3468826
you press tab to hide it all

Woah, just switched and this is great, almost got it exactly like my photoshop setup except one thing, how do i get the program itself to be dark gray- black instead of the light gray it is now? exploring in settings as we speak

>>3469357
ok imported my photoshop painting and it made the painting a lot lighter...

>>3466356
Aseprite is better for pixel art. All you have to do is compile it.

>>3469357
come on.

>>3469089
If you want to increase the value, you can either slide all three sliders to the right or just use the value slider of the colorpicker right below.

p.s. this combination is probably just too 1337 for u.

>>3469089
>I have a rather unusual way of thinking about color, coming from a scientific background.
It's unusual compared to most people, who think of color traditionally.
I think about color using additive color mixing, which took me a long fucking time to get comfortable with.
But it helped me improve a lot for some reason.

how do I change the default eraser brush for upside down pens? this

>>3470150
You actually USE that feature?
O . o dayum
I also didn't understand it. I think you can pick a new one while having the eraser tip on the tablet. It should remeber it.

>>3470160
>You actually USE that feature?
It's bretty dang old useful
