also try the 'Greater' blending mode in mix section of blending mode. You can download this brush from my brush pack here. I hope this is similar to what you are looking for. I recreated this brush from my previous photoshop brush. I adjust the spacing according to my needs. The setting are as below with opacity and flow enabled and with default straight diagonal curve The below image is what i get with my basic render brush. I'm tired of using mixer brush everywhere to make certain edges smooth. So It keep overlaps until it reaches the maximum opacity of color, ignoring the opacity you're trying to apply by pen pressure. (or, the opacity is limited by flow maybe? Idk)īut in Krita (I guess) the flow works separately from opacity, Therefore whatever happens by flow engine it happens under the limit of opacity. Pen pressure enabled on opacity.ġ The pen pressure on flow should make the brush strokes smoother&creamier than 'opacity-only' strokes.Ģ But in Krita it gets soooooooo dirty when pen pressure is enabled on flow.Īnd I think the reason is because, in Photoshop, the flow is limited by opacity, somehow. So in Krita I have to use pen pressure only on opacity to avoid dirtiness, and it sort of works, but it's not as smooth as the one above because it simply adds the same amount of opacities mechanically.

Importantly this is a single stroke done without pressing the pen any harder.īut in Photoshop it doesn't happen even when you enable pen pressure on both opacity and flow, furethermore it looks more smooth and nice.ĭone with single stroke in low pressure, without pressing the pen any harder. Pen pressure enabled on both flow&opacity. Because the strokes get really dirty when I enable pen pressure on flow.Įspecially in low pressure it looks like this. Krita provides pen pressure options for both opacity and flow,īut generally I set the pen pressure only on opacity for my brushes.

This is just my opinion and could be wrong.
