Bookend's Sketchbook

Vornag: Yeah, thanks for your insights, they're greatly appreciated!  You rock man.

My biggest issue was the brushes.  I had no idea what I was doing...  So, I uninstalled Krita, deleted all the content, and reinstalled it with all the defaults.  

Then I started playing with brushes, and re-did the portrait.  I think it looks much better now.  I was really starting to question my work, because I don't think it's been improving-- It's actually been looking worse and worse, and I think it was definitely in part due to the brushes.  

Now that I'm understanding a little better about how Krita works, I feel that I'm doing much better now.

So, that just goes to show you the importance of tools, and knowing how to use them, I guess.
