I forgot to mention that Grafx2, a pixel art program from the 90s, has recently | |
gotten an update and works splendidly with both animation and layers. No need | |
for using the now closed source Aseprite. I could only get the opensource | |
version in ports to work on GhostBSD. The Linux binary and the Windows | |
binaries both crashed or didn't work properly. But as I stated the 27th, I have | |
refound ArtGem! So with Grafx2 and ArtGem I feel quite at home and like I did | |
when I was a teenager drawing all the time. I do have my Wacom working fine | |
but it's not, of course, transferring the pressure sensitivity through Wine. | |
That wouldn't matter with ArtGem anyways. Maybe that's the programming project | |
that I should tackle. A modern recreation of ArtGem, a raster image editor just | |
ahead of pixel art programs. It really gets the sweet spot of control vs the | |
tools. | |
