I consider using Krita for my 24 hour comic in two weeks.
First, a good way to brute force me learn the program, and it just runs so much better than CSP does through the Windows VM.But then do I want the extra difficulty of using an unfamiliar program through such a maraton?
I'll try to at least familiarize me with the basics first.
Also, seems like I still need to paste it all into CSP at the end to render the PDF, but that shouldn't be an issue. -

If I’m understanding things correctly CSP does things not normally in drawing apps.
Good luck!

@yon At the moment its mainly about my existing workflow, and all the comic related features you find in CSP, mainly EX, which I use.
Clipstudio is designed for comics and manga especially, and can even be used for animation(a lot of animators use it).
Krita seems, at least on first glance, to be a much more basic drawing program, which is fine, but I'll need to figure out workarounds to mimic the features I miss from CSP.
But in the context of a 24 hour comic, I'll probably not use many of those features anyway as my goal is to just produce pages as fast as possible. If I can put lines on the paper and color them in a satisfying way, it should be enough.
Though I have to sit there for 24 hours, so I also need it to be as comfortable as I can make it...

@oblomov Unless they've added it recently, it doesn't, I checked earlier.
If I use Krita, I plan to make the exact files ahead of time, with the dimensions I need. So I can just drag them into Clipstudio at the end and export the PDF I need that way. Not ideal, but at least I know it will work.

@Dadaph well, that's annoying. If the comic is multi-page, maybe exporting the individual images from Krita as standard images, and then importing them into something like Scribus to assemble the final PDF might work, if you want to try and remain with a Linux workflow?
Though for a single image that would be annoying. -

I'm not trying to prove anything, just work in a comfortable way.

@Dadaph makes perfect sense, especially if you only have 24hours to do the whole thing 8-D
