A question about Gimp and Krita
Saturday, May 30, 2015 - 03:31
I'm new to digital art (and every other form of drawing), and I've found two programs that interest me; Krita and Gimp.
- I was wondering which of those two are better suited for creating game assets larger than 128x128 px?
- I'm trying to open a transparent file in Krita on which I can draw, but I can't figure out how to. That is possible, right? I can set the opacity to 0, but then I can't see the canvas border, they become the same color.
- Would you recommend any tutorials on how to use Gimp or Krita (or on digital art in general). There are so many to choose from it's overwhelming.
Thanks in advance. :)
krita and gimp can both do what you ask. I prefer manga studio. also called clip studio paint. its 40 dollars and makes really nice linework. much better linework then krita and gimp.
This site has some GIMP tutorials: http://libregraphicsworld.org
Both progamms are suited for creating game assets. It's your choice which one you like more, but there is a difference between these progamms.
The main purpose of GIMP is to be a image retouching and editing software while krita is a tool for digital paintings.
Thanks.:) I'll take a look at Manga Studio as well.
