Krita 5.2.9

Krita is a comprehensive digital painting application designed specifically for artists. It caters to a wide range of artistic needs, such as creating illustrations, comics, animations, concept art, and storyboards. With its array of features and tools, Krita proves to be a powerful asset for any artist.

One of the highlights of Krita is its extensive offering of both common and innovative features that enhance the painting experience. The software boasts impressive brush engines that excel in sketching and painting. Additionally, stabilizers are available for precise freehand inking, while assistants aid in constructing intricate scenes. Krita also provides a distraction-free canvas-only mode for uninterrupted painting. Other useful features include clone layers, layer styles, filter and transform masks for non-destructive editing. Moreover, Krita supports a wide range of file formats, including PSD.

Moreover, Krita goes beyond just digital painting and offers robust animation capabilities with features like onion skinning, storyboarding, and comic book project management. It also allows scripting in Python and provides a plethora of powerful filters, selection tools, and colorizing tools. The software's color managed workflows and flexible workspaces further enhance the user experience.

It's worth mentioning that this version of Krita is currently in beta stage and hence it may not be suitable for professional work yet. Additionally, the interface is currently optimized for larger screen devices such as tablets and Chromebooks, thereby not being available for smartphones at this time.
