CinePaint has a very nice set of big brushes that resemble paint strokes. Definately a Must Have for Krita I'd say...
Comment 1 Cyrille Berger 2006-08-20 23:31:01 UTC
they should be added to the create project then, rather than in krita, I wonder if we shouldn't push to have a dependency on a "create" package in the distro btw... (but that's unrelated to that bug)
Comment 2 Halla Rempt 2006-08-20 23:42:49 UTC
I did look into the Cinepaint brushes some time ago, as did Adrian, and
it should be easy enough to support them now that we've got 16-bit 
support. If I remember correctly, that was the big problem at the time.
Comment 3 Halla Rempt 2011-06-03 21:41:35 UTC
Cinepaint is fading into obscurity, but Krita is still limited to 8 bit grayscale brushes :-(.
Comment 4 Dik Takken 2011-06-05 22:25:35 UTC
Yes, CinePaint becomes harder to compile every day. :(

However, Krita 2.3.3 is *almost* a full replacement for CinePaint (at least for the parts that I use). Using clone brushes to remove dust from 50 MP 16bit slide scans is still a bit slow, and color management is lacking in some areas.

But overall, Krita 2.3.3 impressed me. Keep up the good work.

Sorry, we will not in the near future get down to this.
WISHGROUP: Out of scope

Cinepaint is dead, so there's not much sense in supporting cinepaint brushes.
