Re-trying some of the exercises I did by hand, in Krita with Wacom

I tried not to ctrl+z as much as possible, though it's hard to resist!

At first in krita I was rotating the canvas using 4-6, and I also tried using fingers on the Wacom trackpad. However, I found that using:

space + click => pan
space + shift + click => spin

worked much more smoothly and allowing me to keep the pen hand active.

  3. Cylinder - part flat, part rounded like sphere
  4. Cone - like a cylinder, but tapers to the top point
  5. Pyramid - none of the middle value. just lighter and darker.
