Hello,
I am new to Krita and digital drawing so I started to look at tutorials or books about “How to draw”. I want to make some manga/kawaii things.
In some tutorials I have seen multiple steps/processes to make the drawing:
- Sketch it, with potentially multiple sub-steps
- Ink it
- Add some coloring areas not controlled by the inked parts
- Shadows
- Highlight
- (Probably others I am not aware of for the moment)
For all those steps there are layers and grouped layers to create.
In some videos or live streams on twitch, I saw people create them dynamically.
So my idea/question is: Would it be good to have a plugin to create an environment ready to achieve those steps?
- Create a new document with all those layers/groups already created
- Have a toolbar with the current step and make actions when clicking on the button (change the opacity of sketch layers if I am in inking, …)
- Preload a preferred color palette
- Layout things
- …
I do some Python scripting for personal projects (Blender, CLI) so I think it could be interesting to make such a plugin.
Please give me your point of view about this idea.
Take Care
