You just need to find the right strokes in your hairy sketches, come back on it more firmly and you’re good! 😁 I never used vectors myself (apart from the text layers).

I’ve used Vector in Krita and even made a tutorial for that the way I like to do vector drawing. Yeah, it can get involved with editing all those points but the result afterward is very satisfying. I got used to it that way from using Infinite Design.

So, just as @Corentin said, find the right strokes in your sketches and make them firmer (on another layer).

@CrazyCatBird is your tutorial on youtube, could you please provide a link if that’s the case? Thanks!

Not on YouTube but it’s here:

> This is showing how I do vector in Krita. I learned some about vector in Inkscape and Infinite Design. This way is easier for me (just draw out the shapes). PDF’s here… Part 1: [https://drive.google.com/file/d/1W83ZCk9Ti7CyIB4vW8ZfMcI-VEtyPBuq/view?usp=drivesdk](https://drive.google.com/file/d/1W83ZCk9Ti7CyIB4vW8ZfMcI-VEtyPBuq/view?usp=drivesdk) Part 2: [https://drive.google.com/file/d/1W8zo2POK4LQsrPwXhvAJMqW3voYw\_WhG/view?usp=drivesdk](https://drive.google.com/file/d/1W8zo2POK4LQsrPwXhvAJMqW3voYw_WhG/view?usp=drivesdk) I hope it’s understandable. Have fun!

It’s not videos, it’s pdf’s.

I hope I’m posting in the right place! (If not please let me know-I’m new here).

I thought, wouldn’t it be fun if Kiki had some Monster Inc-like friends, but were afraid of a dust bunny? (Although the thing is the size of a mouse; I don’t blame her). It all morphed into a Halloween theme somehow. Enjoy!

This is awesome! Of course she would be afraid of a piano falling on her, who wouldn’t?

… The Dark.

Hello. I am another one who doesn’t like thinking of lil’ Kiki being scared so I have given her a little friend to cuddle. She’s wrapping her tail around her for comfort.

I am a 5yo Kiki and I’m sacred of these award winning images at an exhibition… each for a very different reason!

I won’t be able to work on it today, so this is as far as I got last night:

 ![KAContestAug2024](https://krita-artists.org/uploads/default/original/3X/b/0/b071d0982a309914c055e13b6dfacda6fa6afd6c.jpeg)

It’s a relief to get something in after the past couple of months though - I haven’t had much time or energy for art. 😐

Well done everyone! 🫡

I figured Kiki needs a body upgrade when she gets older, but the unboxing is a bit scary for her…

I’m just noticing it now… Your bench is tiny compared to a child! 😅

I also felt it was too small - and in relation to the squirrel too. I did have it in mind to change, but will probably need to expand the canvas.

Although, having said that - she isn’t a child; she’s an android, so who knows what size she should be?! 😜
