Digital Portrait Max The Husky

Hello friends, here is a beautiful husky made in combination of Krita and Gimp, use Krita for the illustration and Gimp to give you the final adjustments. I hope you like it.

That’s super cool. Your brushes look so funky ! But I would never have thought things would end up in GIMP !

The reality is that Gimp is much faster than krita in image editing for me, because I have a very old computer and when I have a lot of time working with krita or I have many layers in krita it turns off because of the heat, so stop to be able to use more layers and adjustments, I change to gimp that does not demand so much from my old computer jejeje.

That’s a surprise to me. I found Gimp to be horribly slow with a brush…maybe I need to check on that again !

Good… good… my compliments… very good work… :100:

Ah, well Gimp has a different scope (as has surely been discussed many times when comparing Krita to Gimp) and is aimed more at doing everything. As a result, I think Gimp does a lot of digital enhancements better. At least, they have a whole lot more plugins that what I’ve seen in Krita. Even PDN has a lot that Krita is missing when it comes down to filters.

That looks really great. I admire the color tinting on the fur as the light passes through it from the background light and the glossy halo around the strands.

One quick tip: It’s often better to use lens blur instead of gaussian blur for the out of focus objects. Lens blur uses a sharp circle or polygonal filter kernel that approximates the lens shape better. It’s only a subtle difference, but on strongly contrasting edges it creates that bokeh effect.
Although seeing the full potential of why it works better is only really possible when painting in floating-point HDR (or when additively combining multiple layers) with colors that are several times the maximum screen brightness.

yes, check what is wrong, try to use it completely with its default options.

thank you!!!

Let’s say that gimp is more focused on editing photos, although it has potential in illustration, it does not compare to krita.

Your contribution is very good and your suggestion is great.
