today yesterday i learned:

in ms paint you can move your pointer with the arrow keys and hold down space to draw. this gives you a neat virtual etch-n-sketch! would reccomend

A very quick and silly Kirby doodle I made in Inkscape while experimenting with a tablet setup; thought he was too silly not to share.

I've been using Inkscape for about 15 years, but have never bothered with the tablet features until now.

First encounter 🍃

Aaand the randomizer has spoken! Congrats to pet 1 for being the first to reach its final growth stage! They grow up so fast...

Of course, I'll exclude pet 1 from future random choices so that the other pets continue to grow at a regular rate.

Not sure I ever would have figured this out on my own, but apparently in Krita's brush settings, the word "fuzzy" means random. So "fuzzy dab" randomizes a parameter per brush tip instance, and "fuzzy stroke" randomizes per full brush stroke. Huh.
