最佳免费绘图软件:7大角逐

3 years ago

数码绘图付费工具为数码绘图软件制定了行业标准,对吗?不一定。如今有很多不错的免费绘图软件。专业艺术家们厌恶订购奴役和臃肿软件传播,他们正逃离使用多年的付费软件。 问题是——哪里能找到这种免费工具呀?近在眼前,我们精心挑选了最佳的免费绘图软件,你不用花一分钱就可以创作出令人折服的艺术品。 Krita 平台:Linux、Windows、macOS 下载链接:krita.org Krita界面 Krita是一款开源绘图软件,由艺术家开发,并用于艺术家。该工具完全免费,如果你要支持其创作者,唯一的办法就是捐助。它专注于艺术绘图,用来画漫画、动漫和油画,这就意味着,在开发过程中,照片编辑、图像处理方面的功能没有被优先考虑,而这些功能可能正是你需要的。 Krita的一个强项就是它的画笔工具。你可能会长时间地调整画笔、创建画笔,Krita自带了超过九个画笔工具。自定义过程是全能的,你可以针对某个任务创建无限个画笔。无论如何,默认的一系列画笔已经完全足够新手创作艺术了——你随时都可以在网上找到更多工具包,都是免费的。 Krita还有另一个强项就是它的图层机制。其图层机制类似于Photoshop,可以做所有的标准操作:合并、混合、分组等等。你可以创建各种类型的图层:绘画图层、矢量图层、填充图层以及文件图层。 Krita支持分层的PSD文件,所以你可以打开Photoshop文件、把作品导出为Photoshop格式。 该作品由David Revoy用Krita制作 优点: 强大的画笔工具; 专注于数码绘图; 可导出PSD; 开源社区提供不断更新和新功能。 缺点: (极少数)用户报告某些平台有性能问题; 缺少某些图片编辑工具;…
