I’ve known people to have hugely different workflows in PS, it seems like maybe there’s ways to make it more Krita-like for you if you need too. My only motive here is saying that if you think Photoshop is slower for you, but for others it isn’t slowing them down enough to change, then it’s worth understanding why that is. As you point out, it’s the art skills which make the largest difference. I wouldn’t worry about skills atrophying. Its also a pain to transfer new brushes from one to another and get the same feel. The problem is If I switched fully to krita, my technique in photoshop will start to fade the less you use the tool. Which is Id be safer to stick to photoshop. Id appreciate someone else pitching in their experience but the lack of responses kind of gave me an answer. What I think you’re talking about is artistic skill which is its own thing really. So easy, the masses of twitter photoshop themselves with pirated copies on a daily basis. Its easy to learn and nowadays its as easy as it gets when it comes to photo manipulation. You’re sounding like its an incredibly complex beast that can never be tamed. If you think you know everything about a piece of software then more power to you” “be faster in another piece of software, that is universally used in the industry you’re talking about, well feel free to ignore it. I also didnt ignore your question, I answered it. I think we’re misunderstanding eachother. If you think you know everything about a piece of software then more power to you. With regards to my comments on suggesting you question yourself on how you could be faster in another piece of software, that is universally used in the industry you’re talking about, well feel free to ignore it. If they do have special needs (layering, colourspace, file format, masks etc) then you’re at no disadvantage because you’re been using photoshop for years. Most art directors would be happy to have the option. If you think you’re fast enough with Photoshop to compete in a commercial environment then what’s the problem? Tell potential clients that you prefer to work in Krita (“Do you mind if I complete the project in Krita, it’s my prefered workflow”) but if they require it then you can complete the job in PS. It wont matter for an hours work but over days, it adds up. Im not slower in it because of skill, im slower in it because it simply lacks some of the time savers krita has. I know how to use photoshop, been using it for years. If I did anything “professional” it would most likely be concept art or 2D sprites / stills. And it’s a powerful tool - if you’re slower in it than in another program the first question I’d be asking myself is Why is this Slower? Followed by : Am I Getting the Same Final Product Quality in Both Applications? and If Quality is the Same, Can I be Faster in PS? There’s specific needs for these roles which fit into complex pipelines (especially the colour pipeline) and thus you have less flexibility.Īll of that said it’s important to know how to use Photoshop. The final output is simple flat digital image - how you get there doesn’t matter to me.įor matte painting, texture painting and those more technical tasks then there could be problems. I work in VFX (not games) and I don’t care if someone paints with physical oils as long as the art satisfies the brief. And even if someones running some pipeline tools for Photoshop then you could paint in Krita and bring your painting into PS and save/load into the right pipeline location. Specific workflows are less of a problem. With concept art the final output is a JPG image which helps direct the rest of the work. For concept art? I don’t think it matters.
