As I have mentioned: The brush size does not change depending on where it is in perspective, even though I have set the parameter (for size) in the brush settings to ‘perspective’.
I used the assistant tool to set up a 2-point-perspective grid.
I’m using Krita 5.0.0-beta5.
I was also trying to make it work with the official version of Krita. But it does not have the new assistant tool and it was also crashing everytime I tried to create the perspective grid.
I am attaching a screenshot here. Maybe someone can explain me how to solve this or if it is a bug?
It works now. Still, it’s quite cumbersome to manually build this perspective grid just for the brush sizes to work in perspective mode.
Would be great if this also works for the 2-points-perspective grid.
I think the only thing left is for me to look for way more krita brushes and textures.
Thank you very much for helping me to solve the problem.
I’m not sure, but I think that the possibility of using distance from a vanishing point as a Size control input has been discussed or asked for, in the past.
it would be complicated by the presence of more than one vanishing point I suppose.
You could raise the subject as a discussion point topic in the Develop - Feature Requests category. I’m sure you’d get feedback even if it’s only an explanation of why it can’t be done.
Interesting. I’ll try to find the topics in the forum where such functions were discussed.
Maybe I will raise the subject, but I also know that they are very busy at the moment. Maybe they are already working on it. On the homepage, the perspective tool is highlighted among the new features.
I think I will just wait until the next official version is released. If there is no further progress, I can always ask again. Otherwise it would be a bit impatient towards the developers, who are already working on some features that are relevant for the perspective tools.
If you are looking for brushes and other resources you will find in this posting links to various brushes and other stuff, if you want to try them all you will probably be busy for months.
Since you specifically mentioned textures as well, at Texturize and at World-of-Resource you can find galleries of textures and, if you sign up there, download them as well.
Keep in mind that not every file format can be read by Krita, for example the Photoshop pattern format PAT cannot be read by Krita, thus causing confusion, as the GIMP pattern format, which is also called PAT, can be used by Krita. You can clarify this by looking into these files with an editor, in Photoshop you will find the string “8BPT” among the first characters at the beginning of the file, whereas in the GIMP patterns there is a “GPAT” written a bit further in the file.
If you are looking for further resources, you will surely find help here in the forum, in case of doubt I will probably be able to help you as well when it comes to sources for resources.
Good to know! This saves me from unnecessary problems when looking for texture brushes.
I’m specifically looking for Texture-Brushes, where I can set up nature related environments, like leafs, trees, stones, clouds, fields, grass, pathways, lights etc.
Since I was specifically asking in this topic about the ‘perspective’ parameter in the Brush settings:
Is there anything else I need to know when looking for texture brushes so I can also use the ‘perspective’ parameter?
Or is it safe to assume that as long as the brushes and textures are compatible with Krita, there should be no further problems with them?
You can make your own brush presets from scratch or by modifying an existing brush preset and saving it as a new (with new name and new icon) brush preset.
A brush preset has a texture image as its tip (called a brush) and it can also have another texture (using pattern files) applied as a form of mask to give an additional patterened-textured effect when painting.
There is also the ‘masked brush’ which is another level of modification/complexity involving an applied brush texture but I never fully understood that .
All these textures/patterns can be provide by you, as .png files or GIMP .pat files, obtained or created in any way you like and imported into krita as part of its collection of resources.
It can be as complicated and creative as you want to make it or you can let other people do the hard work and use their collections of brush presets, of which there are so many very good ones.
