Description

Krita is an advanced, completely FREE and open-source painting application designed for artists who believe in making artistic tools accessible to everyone. Developed by a community of artists, it features a user-friendly interface that seamlessly integrates into your creative process. The customizable dockers and panels allow you to tailor the workspace to suit your personal workflow preferences. Once you settle on a configuration, you can save it as your unique workspace for future use. Additionally, you can establish custom shortcuts for frequently used tools, enhancing your efficiency. With over 100 high-quality brushes available right out of the box, Krita provides an extensive array of effects for users to explore. If you struggle with unsteady hand movements, you can utilize a stabilizer feature to refine your brush strokes, as Krita offers three different methods for smoothing and stabilizing them. Moreover, the dedicated Dynamic Brush tool lets you incorporate drag and mass to your creations, adding an extra layer of control. For comic artists, Krita includes built-in vector tools that facilitate the design of comic panels. You can easily select a word bubble template from the vector library and drag it onto your canvas, allowing for immediate customization by adjusting anchor points to craft your own unique shapes and libraries, making it an incredibly versatile tool for various art forms. The program's robust features cater to both novice and experienced artists, ensuring a rich and fulfilling creative experience.

This software allows users to freely modify its source code, fostering creativity and innovation in animation. We are dedicated to establishing a new platform that bridges the gap between academic research and advanced animation production, enhancing the synergy between these two fields.
