Hello again I was wondering if its possible to recreate the feeling of the line quality from paint tool sai ?Like stabilization wise or even these brushes. Mostly the marker brush,watercolor and pencil. Thank you.

Yeah there is the stabilization in Krita, aka located in the tool options,

but the brushes it self

with the pencil brush, unless there texture in the brush you best bet is the **basic-5** and shrinking the brush

with the marker and water color brush you best bet is downloading/using HC\_Basic Brush bundle  
and using the basic _blend-color-circle_ and _basic blend-color-soft_

I have never gotten the Krita stabilizer to feel good, or to feel at all like the 30 days I played with SAI many years ago. When I looked up tutorials on using it, it seemed like they tended to be no more complex than ‘it exists’ and ‘turn it on’, but it didn’t seem like the people sharing that used it regularly themselves. Perhaps it’s not as popular with the more painterly crowd Krita is more frequently used by (as opposed to a lineart/comic style in SAI or Clip Studio)?

Oh yeah. The endless cycle here on K-A when the stabilizer is bought up.  
Here a summary of how usually goes:

> - User A: The stabilizer in Krita is odd.
> - Krita evangelist A: Krita’s **basic stabilizer** is perfect for my illustrations.
> - User A: However the weighted is useless for line art, and the stabilizer is ‘wrong’(?)
> - Krita evangelist B: The weighted is a common stabilizer method, with already established parameters. We should focus on the stabilizer then, what’s wrong with it?
> - User A: I don’t know. It is just ‘not right’. Is not the same as program _Y_.  
> Krita evangelist A: Krita stabilizer is what some other programs call a **Pulled String** smoothing, but without the visual line pulling. Have you tried the **Dynamic brush**? It might be closer to what you want.
> - User B: I tried every tool, and every setting. Krita just don’t work for good line art.
> - Krita evangelist C: \_User B can you tell what is not working?
> - User B: Just use Program _X_ or _Y_ and see for yourself.
> - User A: Not the same.

_After a bunch of useless back and forth:_

> - Random user: Can anyone tell **exactly** what is not right? Make some video/picture of what you expect to see happening, but it doesn’t? A side-by-side how krita differs from other better stabilizers? What information or parameters are confusing? With enough information a dev or volunteer would know how to improve the code.

Usually at that last message everyone is fed up and already leave the topic, and that last message fall in deaf ears. I feel like I’m that last random user there. 😅

So unless people that are _really_ knowledgeable in stabilizers, and are willing to create a topic with the maximum of points where to improve, krita will stay with the same mediocre solutions.

I had made a post about it too. But didn’t get anything hing substantial. There are some good observation in it.

Here is what they wrote about the stabiliser in krita when compared to csp. quote=“Kaiser, post:55, topic:47080”] or me a simpler version of brush stabilization similar to CSP. It’s frustrating to use Krita’s stabilization, or it looks like there’s nothing or makes the brush too slow. Before they say that you can configure, I’ve already tried to increase and decrease the values one by one to more or less. The feel is completely different be…

@starsworne @Rui  
Use the dynamic brush tool ![imagen](https://krita-artists.org/uploads/default/original/3X/1/3/13997b131268af435741e6f8d73b5d34bdc182ee.png) , that’s the type of stabilization that SAI uses.

That’s my setup, having the mass at 0.08 is like having the stabilizer at level 8.

The dynamic brush tool works with all brush engines.

I don’t know if you mean that 😅
