Inkscape vs krita3/17/2023 ![]() ![]() Marketing will be key and that is my next task figure out a marketing strategy for getting my design to a large audience. I am currently working on my first two designs for sale at the end of the month. I am now member of the t-shirt design hustle. I am amazed at how many average folk are doing a t-shirt business side hustle. It is powerful enough for me to implement the visions of my designs for my t-shirts while being simple enough to learn. I have found quite a few tutorials on the internet and YouTube for Inkscape. Krita is an open-source and free graphics editor developed primarily for digital painting and cartoon illustration. That led me to choose Inkscape since it is the only one of the three that handles vector graphics. Inkscape is a free and open-source vector graphics editor which comes with a huge array of digital painting features to help artists and designers express their imagination on the canvas.

GIMP is a raster graphics editor used for image retouching and editing, free-form drawing and converting between different image formats. In my research of the t-shirt design business, I stumbled onto three different software: Krita, Gimp and Inkscape. ![]() I am not planning to become a professional graphics designer, so I preferred to find cheap or free graphics editor software that I will use infrequently. I will need to edit and finesse the graphic design using graphics editor software. The graphic designs will be scans of cool paintings my family have done. I have about a dozen designs with half of them being text designs and the other half are graphic designs. I had a reference that I went off of for the main lights and shadows, and the rest was just manual blending (going over areas with a 50% opacity brush, picking whatever color that resulted in, using it with the brush, rinse and repeat), which I had never done before and haven't been able to replicate since.I can now upload t-shirts designs to Merch by Amazon and Teespring, so now I need to get cracking on my designs.
