[I’m not entirely sure if this is the correct category. I honestly didn’t find one that would fit better.] While setting up a now OS, I forgot to backup my Krita config and resources (but luckily not my images), so I have to setup it again. I had luckily backups of some bundles, but not all. So my question is: What bundles / resources / plugins would you recommend for general usage of Krita? What are the ones you install without thinking twice on a fresh system? Until now I’ve got: - Brushes - [David Revoy’s brush bundle](https://www.davidrevoy.com/article1060/krita-brushes-2025-01-bundle) - [Zer0coil’s brush bundle](https://www.zer0coil.com/p/zer0coil-brush-sets.html) - [MikhailAsmo’s Inking Brush Set](https://krita-artists.org/t/mikhailasmos-inking-brush-set/89664) - [Eligo Design’s Hair Brushes and Blenders](https://krita-artists.org/t/ed-free-hair-brushes-and-blenders/46808) - Comic Manager (I was sure this was a plugin, so I was searching desperately for a download link, or maybe in the Pyhton Plugin Manager to activate, until I realized that it is not actually a plugin, and I just need to activate the docker) ---
