hi everyone,

I seek to understand how Krita brushes. I wonder if there are tutorials for that? .
Or how I can do this kind of brush (Photoshop):


Is there any resources (brush krita) ?

thank

Well, we don't have any real tutorials yet. Animtim, Deevad and Ramon Miranda have most experience creating brushes. However, Photoshop's brush engines are a bit simple, so it should be possible to recreate those effects. We can even load many ABR brush files. I only have Photoshop 7 myself, though.

To create one of these strands-of-hair brushes, I'd first create a suitably sized image in Krita, set the dots of the right size and create a custom brush from that. (Or get one of the photoshop abr brushes with the dots).

The preset dynamics look simple: just size and opacity with pressure. But I'm sure that others know much better than I do.

(I do notice that we cannot search brush tips by name in the search field, though, and we need to improve our predefined brush tip management some more).

I seek to understand how Krita brushes. I wonder if there are tutorials for that? .

The longer way to learn about brush engines is to read the blogposts I wrote about them when I created them. They might be out-dated in same details. But the main idea is still there.

Hey Kargall,

I did a little video to show you how.

The video : http://youtu.be/wnol3izUXvA
The preset + brush : http://david.revoy.free.fr/forums/krita ... -brush.zip

sorry my messy english. I still have to practice a lot before being good at "spoken video tutorial"

hi,

Boudewijn, Lukas,Deevad, it's really good, thank you. I will see and experiment it all.

soon

Edit: Merci Deevad, je n'avais pas vu que c'était une vid en réponse direct a ma question : vraiment sympa . Bon il faut que je m'applique maintenant.
--Deevad thank you, I had not seen a vid that was in direct response to my question, really nice;). Well I must apply myself now --

Je viens de voir la vidéo,bravo ! très efficace. j'installe la brosse, je test et je te dis ça .
I just saw the video, bravo! very effective. I set the brush and I test.

Wouaaa !!

Awesome, thank you ! I didn't understand half of the options of the brush engine (brush engineS...), and I have to admit that I was stuck trying random stuffs to find what I want. Now it's a lot clearer.

@Deevad : les anglosaxonnes trouvant généralement l'accent français très sexy, c'est un moyen comme un autre d'amener plus de monde aux logiciels libres ^^

Very good! this brush is great (and also the Tutorial). You have to press hard on the pencil and then you are set to "super light" in the preferences Wacom because I did not see my line early.
To apply now. Thank you again.



A+

Oh cool. Yes, you surely have to tweak the curve to adapt to another 'feeling', because here I have tendancies to setup brush with a very hard pressure curve. But I also use this sort of curve in the global pressure setting ( image under ) to cap 1/4 of the last zone of the pressure to max effect ( because I don't like to press very hard on the tablet to obtain a 100% pressure line )
Cool you liked the little video. I will try other soon. Have fun tweaking and painting
