Sure that description of Krita works XD I started using it because its brush engine felt a hell of a lot nicer than Gimp. It's not at Artrage level for emulating analogue media but if you like free and good at what it does it basically costs you a bit of time to try out and see if you like it.
LoL oh no! When I was playing with paints I remember I used to mix an excessive amount of colour specifically to avoid that problem and then would have a lot of wasted paint x_x
Ohh I am a huge fan of things that are both "free and good"! Definitely a tool I will look into adding to my arsenal for when I have more time to mess with it. Thank you for the insight!
Lol one day we will hit that sweet spot when mixing paint and it will be awesome! Like finding a unicorn or something. Till then the solution to my problem it seems shall be - wasting paint. 😋
