I love pastels and watercolours, and both are the hardest to emulate on software. Thank you so much for all the work! And thank you for the video, great as usual.
I was really afraid of the pressure curve being a "mountain" shape opposed to the usual "increasing slope", but oh man when i tried it out it felt amazing. I dont have to change brushes constantly, and being able to have so much control over a single stroke is feels really empowering!
@@KritaOrgPainting Hello, I made a comment with a link to my Facebook post a while ago, but it seems it got deleted by UA-cam. My facebook page is Liese Vermont Art
this is one of the most helpful explanations of a brush i've ever watched. dude, thank you. not only do i understand how the brush works but now i see how the settings change it.
Amazing job ! I just tested it, it's really one of the most intuitive and good looking feature I've had the pleasure to try out in a digital drawing software. Can't wait to see how other people will use it!
I am rewatching this video again. It's funny, whenever my skills improves a bit I am going back to these videos, so I can make the most of the Krita with the current skills. Thank you, Ramon!
i just got the updated version (yes, i know, very late) but i really love the new brushes! honestly the only way to make these cooler would be to somehow blend the properties of the watercolour brushes and the wet brushes to create an even more "traditional" effect or to blend better these brushes were honestly my favourite thing about the update and i can't wait to maybe experiment more with blending traditional and digital media!
Frikkin awesome! I'm new to digital painting but have a background in watercolors. This video made me super stoked to dig deeper into Krita. Thanks/ Bo
I didn't even realize Krita had new watercolor brushes, until I saw this video. They were not tagged, and I only select brushes by tags. I'll have to try them, they look excellent.
When i was starting digital art i used medibang cause i taught krita was a headache (no offense) now bc of this vid i now want krita just because of the brushes and animation thank you this was a big help. 😀😀😀
Yeah I used to draw in medibang too and krita seemed too intimidating but at some point I felt like medibang's brushes were way too basic and... "digital", so I switched to krita and I'm much happier with the brushes
I root for that lonely coder who could add to these brushstrokes a feature that affects the previous brushstrokes without using the water pen. Anyway, it's really smart of adding that water pen to compensate to what krita can not do as of the moment! Cheers! I'm new to Krita and it has been a great ride so far!
I am testing the watercolor brushes. They are amazing! Better than Corel Painter's, only similar to Adobe Fresco and Rebellion brushes. Look great with a watercolor paper texture background.
Thank you so much 😀 but i want to be humble and i know real watercolor is amazing and much more complex. If you paint something with them, let us see it in krita-artists.org
Its incredible imitation! Sometimes I want to seek some water glass to put stylus into it and get more water )) Really, It's great to simulate this technics! Thanks!
I really like the textures of these brushes! Thank you, Ramon for your hard work! But, for the brushes that go lighter when pressure is harder, (I can't remember which ones) how can this behavior be reversed? I would like the pressure to be able to be light when I want less color and more color when I press harder.
Thank you for explaining soo well. I wonder where I can download or buy more water colour brushes? It seems not enough brushes which you showed in Krita.
Its not bad but not watercolory enough for my taste. I use actual watercolor textures where I resize and bend each piece with the move/liquify tool into the desired shape
Hi Ramon! I'm just a beginner but I can't thank you enough for this incredible software. Hope I'm not too late but I was wondering how to give a more "dry/dried" aspect to WaterC_Basic_Round-Grain; the idea would be a thicker edge, simulating concentrated pigment (almost like the fringe). Thanks in advance!
Sorry for delay. please visit Krita-artists.org and present your self there. Coders are often reading a lot of threads there so is the best site. We are always happy to know more coders and artists. //RM
Hi, Ramon, thanks for your valuable videos, I have Krita 4.3 and for some reason the new watercolors brushes don't work, there are checked marks, an x on every watercolor brushes, thanks in advance.
Hello there, love your vids and Krita. I'd like to know how to blend two different colors while using watercolor without it looking all smudged and losing its texture? Do I just use a watercolor paper texture for the canvas or is there some kind of a trick I can use?
Coming soon! i am preparing another video with the solution, but if you want to investigate by your own go for it. A layer with texture is a good idea but limited in some things i will explain in the video
Hi Ramon, thank you for sharing and explaining the fantastic job you've done and regularily do on those brushes. I've just installed the 4.3.0 version for Windows to test the new watercolor brushes, and i've noted than the behavior and default parameters on some brushes are different from your default parameters displayed in your video, especially the configuration of the Flow section in the Masked Brush part. On my computer and drawing screen, the default brushes do not seem to render exactly the same way as in your video. Is is maybe due to the specific drawing that you use or I missed something in the installation of the brush pack? Thank you for your help.
There are two versions of those brushes, first is in 4.3.0 by default, the second one is in the description under this video. It has changed parameters to be more suitable for mouse users.
I love using these brushes! But they work better when doing long brushstrokes instead of many short ones. Is there a way to treat multiple brushstrokes as a single one?
not exactly because we are using a trick nowadays. I sometimes use the Greater mode under Mix category but has limitations. Test it to see if this works for you. //RM
Unfortunately, there've been often times where brush strokes were choppy, like Krita would lag for me when I made any sort of detail on the canvas. I'm not sure if it's the graphics backend API, LLVM, or whatever, but that's started to make me ask myself "Do I want to do my work in Krita...?"
サラ姫 please report it to Krita-artists.org forum and maybe devs can help you. More explanation is needed. Device,release,os,... these kind of things. Krita tries to be as good as possible but need good feedback to improve. //RM
These brushes look amazing - but when I try and reproduce what you do in your video the "paint" seems to "dry" very quickly. So at 3min05 you paint a box and then fill it in. The "paint" is still "wet" and it becomes a single block of colour. This looks perfect. When I try and reproduce this I have to be very fast to get this effect. Most of the time the outline of the box has "dried" and so filling in the box is adding an extra layer of paint to the outline. So I don't have a good looking block of water colour. I have a strongly outlined box. When I try and use your simple brushes on my own picture again the paint immediately "dries" if you take the pen off the tablet. This means that trying to create a block of colour is impossible. Each pen touch is a whole new layer of colour and where the strokes overlap the difference in colour opacity is so strong that the finished picture looks terrible. Is there any way of controlling how fast the paint "dries"? At 5 mins43 you have an outline of a mountain which you fill in. I cannot reproduce this using your brushes. For me I paint a blue outline. When I try and fill in the blue outlines becomes much darker. It is now 2 layers of paint so the colour is much stronger. I do not understand why your brushes work one way for you and totally differently for me.
Thanks for your feedback 7:32 is important to notice. These brushes are a trick "they are not using phisics, but opacity trick , so you have to start with the desired pressure (which controls the amount of pigment) and then keep the brushtroke moving your brush Don't take the pen off the tablet.. Of course you can do several brushstrokes and then mix with the last brush, the blender for watercolor. Is that answered your question? //RM
