10 ideas about a better toolset (from an artist, who is also coding)
it's all about automatizing those tiny tasks you do the most
Gamification can be used as tool to upkeep motivation and steer behaviour
brushes do a great deal to speed up digital painting
a good asset pool/ library saves time and work
a toolset can not only help to work efficient, but also to develop an unique artistic style
it's crucial to manage your time, energy and attention throughout the day in order to work productively (try out the simple & effective Pomodoro method)
