This video definitely goes straight to the point, which layers to use, paint and blend, amazing.

your a savior! your way on fixing lag not only made krita a perfect software, it gave me my pressure sensitivity back whenever i didnt have it before! your tutorial is a bit confusing, but probably because im dumb. your amazing!

Thank you SO much for this video! It helped me a lot, coming from a beginner digital artist. I'm starting off with the basics and just downloaded Krita, where I was super lost on what to do first. The step by step explanation of the layers made everything easier. Keep up the great work, for I am your new subscriber!!

OMG this is one of my favorite drawings of yours so far! It's absolutely stunning Jenna! Bravo :D

God bless you Jenna! I have been struggling for so long on how to properly use Krita, thanks to your video there won't be a problem anymore. Keep up the good work.

YOUR DRAWING LOOKS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!! thank YOU SOOO MUCH FOR THIS AWESOME TUTORIAL AND PLEASE KEEP DRAWING.

Hey Jenna! I love drawing, but I'm not that great at it. I struggle with 3 main things, I was wondering if you could make a video on it or just give me tips. The things are- layers in hair, wrinkles in clothes, and hands. Thanks. Btw your really good at drawing! Please don't stop. You encourage me to keep drawing when I want to gives up.

Oh my wooorrrdd the painting at the end

I'm honestly amazed with how _amazing_ this came out

FYI, this video was SO helpful and I applied many of the skills you taught. Thank you so much!

Just did this tutorial and I'm so happy with the results of course it's not perfect but I never thought I'd be able to do digital! I'm so happy you made this it was the greatest help!

Oh my god, this is PERFECT!!! My younger sister has been watching your channel for a few weeks and today she said that she wanted to be a painter. I told her I'd show her how to use Krita, which has been my drawing software since around July of last year. I asked her why she wanted to start painting and she said because she watched this channel. I decided "hmm, maybe i should practice painting today", and I've been going at it for a few hours now. I haven't liked the results so I started looking around for speedpaints to see how they do it and I started looking here. Then I saw that you had a painting tutorial yourself, and it's for KRITA of all things! Thank you so much for this, your art is beautiful and for you to share your workflow is just so nice. Sorry for the rambling! :p

This tutorial is so helpful! Most videos I've seen just confuse me, but this has a great amount of detail for beginners (like me) or more experienced artists! Thanks! Also, your drawings are amazing and I love the golden hue in this one!

well reason ppl don't like Krita is (for newbies, for pros idk) hard to find good tutorials, thanks to you or David Revoy im diggin into this soft. For ex. i want to setup my pencil like real one- presure thicker line, angle - wider line(working in cohesion). Spent like 3h on tutorials - and no answer. Then study all dependence betwean option in brush engine for another 3h, so i spent like 6h just for 1setup before even drawing. High level of entry for me...

I think the only thing going for it for me is for lining, but even then it frustrated me quite a bit (I use a lot of hatching in my art). I think I'll be switching back to my trusty Gimp 2.6 lol. I might use FireAlpaca just for the cleaner linearts, but everything else probably not.

I have advice for this! Pick out the features that will make this character distinct (maybe their eyes are more slanted than average or they have this unique hairstyle) Then practice drawing the character. Make a reference sheet of what they look like at different angles and with different expressions. Draw them over and over. It can get tedious, but trust me, it's worth it.

@@theminiatureromantic I only have experience in Photoshop but it has the same layer options. Multiply takes information that is already on your canvas and multiplies the value so it is good for shaddows as you keep the underlying drawing. The overlay layer is good for highlights. I find it's difficult to get an exact color using these modes so I tend to manually paint in my shaddows but this method is pretty common and gets you good results. Check out Aaron blaise's channel. He is an animator and artist and he uses multiply and overlay in his drawings.
