Dear Krita Community,
I’m new here and know that this question is already worked out in various constellations again and again, but unfortunately I still have problems with creating my own brushes.
The most of the time iam using the Bristle-4_Glaze Brush from Krita 4. I really like the look of this brush. But after a while, i think i dont want that overlapping brushstrokes results in a darker value. After i google , i found a thread on reddit where this is asked also and this screenshot describes my problem very well:
When drawing with Opacity, how do I prevent the ugly overlaps?
The reddit thread where this was posted said, the solution is using “flow” instead of opacity, but the thread was not Krita related and i guess its not the solution because the Bristle-4_Glaze has 100% flow when i look in the brush settings.
I found a tutorial matrix from @tiar in a krita-artists thread which i think is very helpful.
So here my two questions:
-
From the matrix i guess, the Bristle-4_Glaze brush uses 100% Flow and Pen Pressure opacity in wash Mode. I guess that, because the value does not change when overlapping in the same opacity level at a single brush stroke. But how can i varify that? I dont find a “wash mode” option or “build up” option in the brush settings. I search for that also and found this thread: Selecting wash or build-up painting mode (cant put more than two links here is a new user, sorry). But i still do not find it in the mentioned brush settings list.
-
It seems from the matrix no opacity-flow-wash-buildup relation can solve my problem (not change value on seperate brushstrokes when overlapping) or? Because in the matrix the “overlapping” or his prevention is only related to a single stroke.
Maybe someone still has patience to help me 
!
Best Regards
Ark
