Chore day, November 13, 2021 -- Mushroom Soup and Krita's Colorize Mask

I’ve been playing with Krita’s autocoloring feature that uses a colorize mask. I’m interesting in using colorizing masks to speed up flatting in Krita. At first I had a hard time getting it to work. The reason for that is that I rarely read documentation. I was lucky to find David Revoy’s video about using Krita’s colorizing mask on Youtube.

In the pictures above you can see that the flatting looks really clean, but sometimes the colors don’t end up where they should be. The idea is that Krita will do most of the work but I have to go in manually at clean up the details. I’m fine with that.

Earlier in the day I made a batch of mushroom soup. It takes four pounds of mushroom and a 12-quart cooking pot to hold everything. The recipe said it would take 45 minutes, but it took me 2 hour and 45 minutes.
