How do i make a perfect star shape?

i wanna make a star but can’t draw it so that it looks good. also if there’s any way to size it down/up afterwards that’d be appreciated. ty!

There are various websites that will show you how to construct a star using pencil and paper, with maybe a compass and a ruler as well.

My favourite method is to use Inkscape (it’s free) and its star/polygon tool:

Then copy/paste it into a vector layer in krita:

In krita, you select it, right-click → Ungroup, then you can edit its various properties.

In Krita you can use the multibrush tool to draw different star shapes when it’s set to mirror, symmetry or snowflake, with more than two axis. Then use the transform tool to resize them.
