Mates, I am new to Krita, and it is woooonderful! I have a question: Is there any way to mimic the “mixer brush” of photoshop? Here is what may I get using this brush: [mixer brush tool]

If you save that sphere as an RGBA brush tip, you should be able to closely replicate those using the pixel or colour smudge engines. As Takiro said though - it’s not the same as a mixer brush. The closest thing we have at present is probably the clone brush (you might be able to sample and drag th…

I thought that these brushes that come with Krita do that: [Screenshot_20210820-082706_Dolphin] I use these more now that I kinda know how they work (light pressure for blending, heavier pressure to apply more color)

It could potentially happen with Krita 5.1, not earlier. Wel’ll see but it is great that we already have these capabilities in Krita right now…
