Krita common issues and how to solve them


There are many traps in Krita, especially for beginners. Often it's about features that are activated with a keyboard shortcut or a hidden button and change the mode of everything, but without having any feedback about this change in the interface. This video covers 5 of the most common ones in my opinion.

A la façon de Max Ernst

Tiens, me dis-je en voyant que des amis de diaspora* étaient passés me faire un petit coucou, cela fait bien longtemps que je n'ai pas posté quelque chose ici. Il est temps d'y remédier.
Voici donc un dessin inspiré de "l'ange du foyer" de Max Ernst.

#Krita Tip! ✨ Did you know that Krita can automatically record satisfying timelapses?
❗ Important: this is even easier now than when I made this video! 🤩 FFmpeg is now included right inside Krita, so you do not have to download it separately and can skip that step


Also as a tribute to Toriyama, I would like to share the cameos and influences in my webcomic here (which are hidden or vague due to copyright reasons):

1. You can find a Super Saiyan character doing the line in front of Saffron's house.

2. The magic competition arena decoration.

3. The fight with Shichimi

4. Goku was born "Kakarot" (carrot), so now you know why my cat with long tail and eyes like young Goku is called "Carrot".

#akiratoriyama #鳥山明 #fanart #krita

1. a comic page of Pepper&Carrot. Episode 16. A line in front of Saffron witchcraft in the street of Komona. Cameos are in the line. 3. a comic page of Pepper&Carrot. Episode 34. A fight between Pepper and Shichimi, Dragon Ball Z style.
2. a comic page of Pepper&Carrot. Episode 21. The arena of the magic contest. 4. a comic page of Pepper&Carrot. Episode 18. How Pepper names Carrot (because he was hidding in a crate of Carrot) but there is another reason for this name.


I learned this morning of the passing of Akira Toriyama, the father of Dragon Ball, Dr. Slump, designer of Dragon Quest, Chrono Trigger. Also, probably the artist who influenced me the most when I started drawing. Here is an old fan art I drew of Arale. My heart is really heavy this morning...

#krita is one of those amazing apps which I haven't given enough attention. I should look at it again.


The big wave of spams is over? Thank you FediAdmins for doing what you do!

Wow, that’s awesome! I didn’t know #Krita could do this!

Does this also work with scanned pencil drawings?

#krita #ArtWithOpenSource #FediArt #tutorial #rpg #characterDesign

A digital painting of a character design: a female character stylised as in JRPG of the end 90s. She has a golden shield carved, a golden metallic staff with a rubis that also has a blade like an axe. She wears many gears and her clothes are large and themed around a tangerine color, leather, white linen and red.

I love painting in the free painting software #Krita so here is a timelapse of a piece I did! ❤️ There is nothing more satisfying than the joy of slowly but surely creating artwork from your hands, mind and heart - a fulfilling joy those tragic ai-bros will never know #NoAI


✨ Happy New Year 2024.
With this illustration, I would like to wish you a calm and peaceful New Year.

#krita #ArtWithOpenSource #MastoArt

A fantasy landscape digital painting illustration built around the letter of 2024. The setting is in a deep forest. Two trees are shapes like the 2, the 0 is a hollow trunk with a mini book library in it, the 4 is a structure to do fishing on the pond in foreground. The ambiant is calm and relaxing.

The recent excitement surrounding Thread's arrival on the Fediverse is concerning. To understand why this is not a good idea, consider their economic interest in harvesting data, their poor moderation, and their manipulations. Nothing good can come from their federation. Don't roll out the red carpet for them.

#Threads #Mastodon #Krita #MastoArt #Meta

A small Mastodon mascot is happy to roll out a red carpet to welcome the footsteps of Meta; a representation of the death, a skeleton in a black robe with a scythe. This one has a head band with the Meta logo, and a keychain with large logo of What's App, Facebook, Instagram and Threads. The skeletons walks happily while hidding the scythe on their back. This is a representation of how naive the tiny Mastodon can be.

Someone posted a question which included the #krita hashtag about when Krita or GIMP and so would support "AI". I won't reply or mention them because they were anonymous people without a bio, but the answer is:

* if there are libraries with a GPLv3+ compatible license
* if there are models trained only on publicly available images, instead of pirated copyrighted images (Krita is GPLv3, so yeah, we support copyright _and_ copyleft).
* if our users actually need or want AI assistance.


My version of the character Ada from "Ada & Zangemann", a Creative Commons license (BY-SA) book for children and a funny story about Free/Libre and Open-Source. It's written by Matthias Kirschner and illustrated by Sandra Brandstätter. It is great to see new characters in the Free Culture, especially because Ada is so cool. 💜

Krita on canvas text editing by @Wolthera is coming to nightly builds
🤯

#krita


Alright, I've managed to get the text tool up to a point where it can be tested: https://krita-artists.org/t/text-tool-thread/57973/60

All the plain text editing bits are in place, including input method support, vertical text mode and editing of the basic wrapping area. Right now I'm hoping for feedback in this area to get some papercuts out, so I can afterwards dive back into the nitty-gritty to prepare everything for rich text editing.
