![]() TL DR: If drawing linework is the only thing you want, then SAI with its Linework Layer will probably be enough for you. AND it's still getting stuff added to it, with active developers that listen to the community, which is by itself invaluable. I used PS, SAI, Gimp, and Painter, before finally settling for Krita because it does everything I might need to do, and it does it more than well enough. Krita aims to be a complete digital painting program with a lot of features and tools. ![]() The one feature it has that is unique and valuable is the Linework Layer, which I must admit is awesome if you actually need something like that. but then again SAI is geared towards simply drawing, and that's what it does best: it is a lightweight, fast program on which you can sketch and draw to your heart's content. SAI lacks a lot of basic tools, I don't even know where to begin. The layer functionality in SAI is basic nothing beyond transparency mask and layer groups, while Krita's has things from common layer modes to filter layers. SAI has a small set of brushes, though each has a few settings you can fiddle with, while Krita allows you to go completely crazy with the brushes. I have used that program just enough to check out its features, and realize it's too simple for what I need. If the question is "how does it compare to SAI", well. In other words, it's good enough that it can compete on equal ground with anything out there, and in the end it comes down to preference.Īs Ailaik said, Krita is free and open source software so you can just download it from their website, try it out, and if it works for you, support development by buying it. It's not the end-all (nothing is), but it's more than good enough that professionals use it to create top-quality digital art. ![]() If the question is "how good is it", the answer is simply "really good, and keeps getting better". ![]()
