It is definitely the easiest to control detail shading for beginners. The reason is that it can lay down color and has the very best ability to smoothly blend. I think that the basic_mix_soft brush is one of, if not the, best brush for digital art beginners.

So from that perspective I think I can see things from a beginners viewpoint. I not a beginner to digital art, but I'm more of an engineer who loves to learn and attempting to create art. I'd like to recommend reconsidering adding it into the brush set for Krita 4 (even though I know you can get it from the 3.0 bundle as mentioned above). Thank you for all your contributions to the community! I have two questions.ġ) I'm curious why the basic_mix_soft brush didn't make it as one of the key brushes in Krita 4. Anyhow, my shading is much more consistent and coherent now, thanks to you. Although I have to admit that I often still do a colored speedpaint first and then convert it to grayscale (set the layer's blending mode to value) to get a feel what my desired target colors look like in gray. After reading your tutorial I basically reversed my workflow from doing color first to doing a grayscale first. I also like the Greater blending mode that came a few versions ago, especially with pixel brushes. Now, my favorite blending modes are Overlay, Color and also Value. The only blending modes I knew at that time were Multiply and Screen (and I only had a wild guess when to really use them). I wanted to improve my digital workflow and since blending modes were pretty much black magic to me back then, I figured It could probably enhance my workflow a lot (and it did). Yeah, I'v seen that video basically the day it came out (It was actually the thing that pointed me in your direction in the first place). 04-06-2012: v1.0, Krita 2.3.0 - First release used on Tears of Steel concept art.

08-03-2017: v8.2, Krita 3.1.2 - If it works, don't fix it: 10 brushes added, minor update for 2.I hope it helps if your work-flow was dependent of a specific setting in my 8.2 brushkit. Here is a graph of the evolution and merging. I merged the one duplicate, and decorated other one to be consistent with the way brushes were sorted. I couldn't port all my brushkit to Krita and keeping exactly the same.

Just download Krita 4.0, they are part of it by default. You can read the fully illustrated documentation here:

I am now really happy using them, and happy to share them too! You can read the Git commit here if you want full details. I triaged them, painted new thumbnails, took care about sorting them, renaming them, optimizing them and polishing the settings. My mission was to merge my brushkit 8.2, my Charcoal Pencils and wet brushes into a collection of new presets made with feedback of the community and merge also brushes submitted by Ramon Miranda, Wolthera, Pablo Cazorla, Rad, Scott Petrovic, Razvan and other. So, I was sponsored by the Krita foundation in March to work on the default brush kit for Krita 4.0. The result of a survey made by the Krita foundation over social network reported you were a large majority using my brushkit 8.2.
