Now that you have a “Tall Evergreen” brush safely saved you can experiment with the settings to see if there is anything you would like to change, for instance, by altering the size setting and the pressure parameter you could set the brush to change the tree size depending on the pressure you were using with your stylus (assuming you have a stylus!). Something like “Trees - Tall Evergreen” would be appropriate. To do this we would do the following:Ĭhange the name of the brush at the very top of the Brush Editor Settings dialog. Let’s say that there is an image of an evergreen tree that we’re pretty sure is going to be a regular feature in some of our paintings and we want to have a dedicated brush for it. Your job now is to decide which of these you want to have as Brush Preset (Just like your Pencil) or you think you’ll only use sporadically. In our case, they would all be thumbnails representing different types of trees. If everything went fine you will see a number of new thumbnails show up at the bottom of the window. At the bottom of the window are two icons:Ĭlick on the blue file folder on the left and then navigate to where you saved your. This will change the editor to show a scrollable screen of thumbnail images, most will be black on a white background. Open the Brush Settings Editor ( F5 key).Ĭlick on the tab “Predefined” next to “Auto”. An Ink Pen or solid fill type should do fine. In your Brush Presets dock, select one of your brushes that uses the Pixel Brush Engine. abr file into Krita’s home directory for brushes.

The first is to create a series of brushes that we an quickly access from the Brush Presets dock to easily put together a believable forest. abr file that contains numerous images of types of trees and ferns. For this example we will use an example of an. abr files, although there are certain features. Example: Loading a Photoshop Brush (*.ABR) ¶įor some time Photoshop has been using the ABR format to compile brushes into a single file. They can be modified/tagged in the brush preset editor. In my opinion, learning how the Krita brush engines work is the smartest thing to do.Currently Krita only import a brush texture from abr file, you have to recreate the brushes by adding appropriate values in size, spacing etc. The only catch is that Krita imports the Photoshop brush files just as brush tips without the other settings, so for most Photoshop brushes you will need to adjust the brush settings to make them work properly.

There you have it, a veritable treasure hoard of downloadable brushes for Krita, and even some explanation of how to use Krita's built-in brush engines.įor those who still aren't satiated, Krita also supports Photoshop brushes! I find it's the default brush is best for an ink aesthetic, but by playing with the brush settings you can make some great oil and acrylic brushes! In the brush settings, you define the area with 'bristles' in it, and the size and rotation settings affect the whole brush tip, not the individual 'bristles'. The bristle brush engine aims to replicate how a real life brush would work. If you want your paintings to feel like traditional inks, or oil or acrylic paintings, try out the Krita's bristle brush engine. This is a little bit about each of them and how they work.

Krita currently includes 15 brush engines. Perhaps you'll be able to make brushes even better than the ones you've downloaded! Try out playing with the settings of the brush engines and see what you can make on your own - the possibilities are incredible. I wanted to showcase a little bit about the brush engines that are included in Krita, what they can do and how they differ from each other.
