Really heartwarming seeing all the Krita fans here. Like Pikat said, it does have a steep learning curve (I even gave up on it once because I was just that unfamiliar with it) BUT once you learn the shortcuts and layers, brushes and painter's palette, it works like a dream!! Iirc there's even a button/docker that has the presets of other popular art programs like CSP, so if you're coming in from another art program you can tweak it to you're liking in no time! Love the support this app had and is getting!! Thanks, Pikat

Thanks for specifying "(for PC) " me and the other 4 mobile artists were about to defend Ibis paint with our lives

I gotta say one thing about ibis paint I love is how consistently they update and improve stuff without messing up the interface or base features

As a Blender 3D artist and student game developer, Blender is a HUGE pain to learn at first, but once you learn it you wont find many things more powerful than it. It is very nice for making 3d models for games :)

Also, you can 'mod' krita by downloading plugins made by others (eg. customise your own pie wheel, have palette generators etc.)

As someone who uses GIMP for image editing, I fully agree. That thing is NOT beginner friendly I do very basic edits for VRoid textures and that's it.

Glad to hear your opinion on Krita because I fell in love with it instantly. I really enjoy drawing as a hobby but I've never gotten much into digital art communities, so I didn't know if it was a good starting program. I don't mind things being complex, because if the idea is to utilize it all eventually then it's just something I can break down into bite sized bits of learning and approach things whenever I want to expand my craft.

I'm such a Krita fan. I see Krita's icon on a thumbnail, I immediately click just to see what you think of it.

Paint is so... comforting. You don't expect to make masterpieces on it, but when you do... the confidence boost is amazing

i'd like to offer an additional piece of krita propaganda: it doesn't crash often for me but if it does it's usually not a big deal because it has a pretty good autosave feature. you can also record your process. it's a great program overall it just takes some getting used to

Ayyy! Glad to see Krita got good verdict!

THANK YOU for acknowledging that Gimp is primarily for photo editing and not drawing. I've seen many artists just dismissing it as bad when it just isn't great for that specific usecase. That being said, the biggest benefit of gimp imo is the programmability of it. The api is insane and pretty much anything you can do in the UI, you can script.

KRITA MY BELOVED <33

Lol As a GIMP user (for photo editing) I am also thankful for the pepper brush and I love how you went crazy with it

OH MY GOSHH YESS KRITA IN S TIER i saw the thumbnail and got so scared that u were going to trash on it omg i love krita so much i always recommend it to everyone

Ibis is really best on tablets/phones. The amount of insane art ive seen made on that from people just using their finger to draw is crazy
