RE: Learning Pencils: Which pencil to use, and when ? - "Secret Picnic"
Whoa! You're certainly turning into a certified Krita monster! Can't wait to see you mimic a color pencil set such as Polychromos or Prisma. :D
woah woah ... idonno about that ! i'm just kinda trying things out XD we'll see how far i can go :D
Hey, did you know that you can rotate the drawing area by pressing shift and the spacebar, then dragging left or right with your pen? Then press 5 to go back to the default view. ;)
owowowoh!!?? i will try this out :D thank you !!
Shift middle click drag works too :)
so many secret techniques !!!!
LoL not so much secret technicles as keyboard shortcuts XD Another useful one leading on from tiger's original comment is resizing the brush by holding shift and dragging left or right. I actually have to experiment with my keyboard to find out what the modifier keys to use are as I've got most commonly used things on my wacom buttons and can't always remember what I put on there, just that it works XD
I think I already asked you if you found the right click palette, did you figure out how to add your favourite brushes to it yet? :)
uh not yet and that right click dial thing freaked me out !! XD;;;;;;;
also i dont draw with my other hand on the keyboard, so keyboard shortcuts are not my thing...
except to control Z

It's really useful! :D I mostly use it for my favourite brushes, the palette is probably also useful but with the way I do shading I have a lot of very similar colours and end up having to look at the colour wheel to see which black or white I have, so it's much easier for me to do a layer palette XD
Do you have buttons on your tablet? I set mine to be undo, redo and the modifiers (and have scripts as the button assignments change between programs) then you just use the buttons and don't need to go to the keyboard except if you have something that you still need but don't commonly use.
