Some users create accounts Just so DA users can use the avatars as emoticons. Imagine that! It took me o

It's been a while! Actually, for the past few weeks, I've been spending a few minutes every day to play around with Krita's brushes, just to get used to them. When Krita 2.6 comes out I plan to release a new tutorial, which will (among other things) cover Krita's brush dynamics in more depth. (I have no idea when Krita 2.6 will be released though) In the meantime though, I've discovered a few tricks! - Size: map "Size" to "Speed." That's it.
