I took a lot of shortcuts because I am slowly moving away from photoshop/illustrator to open source alternatives like Krita and Gimp. Its kind of a struggle, but I’m hoping with enough practice I’ll be as good as I was in P$ in no time! Biggest issue is getting used to the sketching, pressure, and color tools, the colors are kinda all over the place and I’m finding it hard to equalize them.

I kinda hated how I had to spool up a vm to get into photoshop all the time on linux. No longer!
