I 'm now using #Krita to color my comic and it's saving me some time. Creating flats (selecting shapes and adding an arbitrary color) is time consuming and not very creative. With the colorize filter you can scribble in your colors and Krita does the rest #comics #comicstrhttps://m.primal.net/JLgk.png https://m.primal.net/JLgl.png

I always reply to these types of posts on FB but there's never a reaction to it. People can't think for themselves and have already gotten the NPC "download" about Bitcoin, therefore they choose to ignore it ... at their own peril

The explanation is easy. Before Bitcoin we could only stack chairs waiting for hard money to be invented. All those who stacked and traded up are high rolling it today.

I'd make sure they are drawing things that they are passionate about so they keep their enthousiasme. I'd have a look at the spots that most need improvement (proportions, structure, rendering different textures, composition, anatomy) and give them tips that would enable them to make progress.

I find people have already made up their mind about Bitcoin at this point and it's getting harder to orange pill them. I started making a comic in the hopes of reaching the next generation while they're still open-minded and have a desire to avoid the pitfalls of an economic downfall.
