ART RESOURCE: BRUSHES

This is a (currently) WIP brush bundle for Krita, aiming to be an alternative of CSP assets. I try to cover many different techniques that could be used in an art piece, with a heavy focus on using simple opacity brushes and then mixers for blending, instead of blendy brushes by default. It's just the workflow I'm most familiar with & one that works very well with a default Krita install.

Hopefully, the brushes are also light enough to use on Android devices/machines with lower RAM without lag, as that is also a priority of mine.

All of my own DIY assets (the brushes themselves & the brushtips) are under the CC-BY license, meaning you're free to do whatever you want as long as you give credit.

Vinny's Alpha Test Bundle! (Krita 6) (11.05 UPD: PART 2)

Good lord, it’s been a while. Explaining my absence would take way too long & is absolutely NOT the topic of today, which is instead a sort of thank-you gift to the community here. My goals for this were simple; I’m trying to move at least a part of my process to Krita, fully. Problem is, I have literal gigabytes of archives of brushes, textures, etc. for CSP/PS/Procreate, not so much for Krita; those resources are not free either, so even if I port them I wouldn’t be able to share them.

Exotic Animal Photo Reference Repository (@animalphotorefs.bsky.social)

GenAI has polluted image search results, especially for animal pics. It’s now basically impossible to find accurate art references. Enter this: a repository of open-access, AI-free images of wild & exotic taxa. Artists creating *without AI* have blanket permission for derivative/transformative use. https://www.animal-photo-references.com/

Just spreading the word here since there is a NSFW/ "lewd" artist crowd here on fedi. There is a website (linked below) that connects SWers with freelancers who are open and accepting of SWers. It is owned and operated by a SW woman, not a big company.

I'll link a few, share the ones you're having fun with it :)
Bonus karma for #FOSS but proprietary+affordable is also cool."
