#GIMP for #digitalillustration —what you don't miss:
Brush templates with custom dynamics!

Forgot what they're called in #photoshop but these are 90% what I personally used for painting #gameart back then.

Testing colorspace conversion using #Scribus, #Krita, #Gimp 3, and back to its master environment in #Inkscape (top right). The 3 look dull because they're no longer #RGB. #Print designers know this.

Graphics designers,
Invest in making your creative workflow less reliant on what the monopoly wants for you as standards. Diversifying from #adobe #illustrator is inevitable.

Bezier pen is an industry-standard tool in vector graphics.
Design custom #namecard #letterhead #brochure from scratch with #opensource #software. Yes it's possible.

Next lesson video in progress.
Raw VO recording takes are 7 sessions, as I took breaks in between, part of techniques to reduce clicking sound 😇

Video coming to a wrap! Just a lil final touch.

Maybe a softlaunch for the first lesson release. Design a brochure not using #Illustrator and maintain your creative workflow's sovereignty. Yes it's doable.

For the 3rd episode of How to Design Business Collaterals #withoutAdobe we'll probably go back to using #Shotcut.
Script is in the work.👍

Studios missing out on production sovereignty in the name of increasingly contestable industry standard.

Invest once & diversify. Take the red pill… Become future-proof.

#Brand designers:
If you had the reliable substitute for your software, would you put up w/ the old ways just because it's "standard"? Not to mention aggressive #terms nibbling at your feet.

Meet you on the other side.

#GIMP suxxx! I can't even whateverwasassumedcannotbedone

First, panning the viewport is a good start, bcs it gives you a sense of control over your work. Here's how.

Leave comment if you fancy these quick tips!

Text outline in #Gimp is a non-destructive fx now.
Yes it's already doable in… the other software since last decade, but this one has friendlier terms.

Ready to move your #graphicdesign workflow to open standard? We have the lessons in one place.

An animated feature made with #Blender winning #Oscar destroys the myth that if a software is free to use it's gotta be subpar.

Talent's knowhow is the name of the game—if you know how to use it for your case that's all that matters.

#Opensource vector graphics tool can convert primitives into paths for advanced treatment. Just like other professional tools known in the market.

It is liberating to have a good software in the toolbox, even if only as backup.

Amidst prepping for next lesson video, an #interactive CV was completely designed in #Figma to see how #Penpot handles import. Some interesting discoveries. The latter is still a capable option for #prototyping.

Mulling a certificate for the #branding design course.
The lessons are hosted with Payhip which allows students to d/l one upon completion. This should be up when the next video is released.

Should've done a #graphicdesign feature instead, considering our existing lessons are focused on that, but just for a general teaser:
This is how a basic rig in #Friction could work. Pretty neat stuff!

This is a great milestone!
Although it comes in Flatpak & the prospect of it overriding the existing #Gimp v2.10's workspace settings prohibits us from giving it a run atm. Can't wait for stable release. If you're on Win/Mac, go for it.

"GIMP s**ks! Can't even do the most basic thing I need it to."

We know…we relate 😅

Here is how to make a selection in #Gimp.
Might already solve 80% of your to-do list.

Did a quick investigation on whether #MyPaint can be used for #comics #art & how it fares on technical aspects e.g. deploying panel frames, export settings etc.
This at one point needs to be in the curriculum👍
