Clipping Masks: Alpha inheritance, Alpha Lock & Groups in Krita

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

Understanding how to use the inherit alpha and lock alpha features in Krita was difficult to me, but is actually quite easy. That's why I decided to make this video.
These options to create masks are present in most painting softwares with some tweaks and differences on each one. But I have noticed that a lot of people have difficulty understanding it in Krita. I hope this video is usefull to you.
The way the layers system in Krita works is quite powerful. You can create masks that are 'clipped' not only to one layer but the layers you want. The Inherit alpha and lock alpha features allow us to use a faster workflow to colouring, shadding and lighting.

    Thank you so much for the Clipping mask tutorial! It was quick, straightforward, and easy to understand. I am coming from SAI and CSP. I was more used to how those programs did their clipping, but now I don't feel like I need to use CSP as much. I read the Krita manual, but I'm more of a visual learner... So videos like this mean a lot to me! Just still learning how to animate in Krita, since I'm using CSP for that right now. Anyway, I'm so grateful for open source and it's cool to see more artists using it! :^D
