I just posted a new video with my solutions for mobile digital painting on GNU/Linux! It's not sponsored, about a refurbished 5 y/o hardware, and relatively low budget. 🙂

How do you manage to avoid hand touch detection when start to draw with the pen ?

The crowdfunding for 'Super Tilt Bro' − a new online NES game with Wi-Fi enabled cartridge and where Pepper is a playable character − ends in 20h: €87,000
pledged of €40,000 goal while I write this lines 😮 Bravo to the team and @RogerBidon ! 🎉

(note for clarity: this is a derivation reusing Pepper as a Free/Libre character and I'm not part of the team or earning on this: and I'm ok with it 🙂 The game is open, free, and you can play it here sgadrat.itch.io/super-tilt-bro )

@davidrevoy @RogerBidon Oh, that's incredible!

You know, when I had trouble with the BFF-2000 in Freedom Planet 2, I assumed it was just a giant robot thing. But now that Kiki is wiping the floor with me, I begin to suspect that Tyson Tan is just too powerful.

On second thought, after recording this, I tried out Arcade mode, and after I finally survived Kiki, Pepper one-shotted me. Perhaps I am just bad at video games? (Pfft, I already knew that.)

@davidrevoy @RogerBidon WiFi enabled internet multiplayer on the NES? 🤯

I love old cartridge systems, in part because their cartridge slots allow for these wild hardware expansions.

@davidrevoy @RogerBidon Félicitations! J'ai hâte de recevoir ma "cassette"!

I'll be at the @geekfaeries 2023 festival! I'll do live digital painting Krita demos, I'll sign your Pepper&Carrot books and I'll do a talk about Fan-Art. It will be from 2 to 4 June 2023, at the Castle of Selles-sur-Cher, France.

@davidrevoy @geekfaeries yeah trop bien ! 😁
Est-ce qu'il y aura des Pepper&Carrot en vente ? 😊

@davidrevoy @geekfaeries J'adore ce que vous faites, mais j'ai un faible particulier pour cette image. Elle a un côté très "fantasy à la française", avec ce château typique et le dragon qui émerge tranquillement. Souvent, la fantasy située en France, c'est Paris avec des dragons, mais il y a un tas de paysages et de monuments français qui se prêteraient vraiment bien à imaginer des histoires de fantasy !
J'avais beaucoup aimé, aussi, votre illustration faite d'après photo avec Pepper à balai qui volait près d'un pont. *fouine dans ses fichiers* Voilà, l'illustration faite au moment d'un événement à St Antonin.
J'aime beaucoup aussi le même genre de chose avec des paysages situés ailleurs dans le monde, c'ets juste que là il y a le petit moment de surprise "Tiens mais, ça pourrait se passer à deux pas de chez moi !" 🙂​

@davidrevoy Je savais que Carrot aimait jardiner :shibalaugh:
Super chouettes ces nouvelles plantes ! :shibasmile: 🌱

#krita #MastoArt

Digital painting of a young witch −Pepper− from a profile view, she looks confident. Waves of purple energy fly around her. The rendering is painterly with very thick painting strokes to depict her cloak and hair: the colors and strokes are merging in an abstract way on this side of the painting.

@davidrevoy That looks beautiful! And I love it that your breathing lively and friendly and happy and allaround great illustrations are more and more shaping how Free Software looks!

I already liked how Battle for Wesnoth broke bad clichés and created characters who still show their personality years later, but you’re bringing that on a new level.

Thank you!

@davidrevoy Nice art, and thanks for replying what tablet that is, I'll have to look into it for my partner.

Also, I'm currently running Manjaro KDE after leaving RHEL 9 w/ GNOME and I'm preferring it more for the time being. KDE has really changed since I last used it.

I'm back home after an excellent "La Réunion des Communs" event. I just posted an article on my blog about the talks and workshops I gave:
davidrevoy.com/article968/la-r

#floss #krita #comic #lareunion

The library of Saint-Joseph, a contemporary building in appaerance made of wood with the shape of a geometrical hourglass patched with many windows. Green palm trees and tropical plants are all around it. In the front, the banner of the "Reunion des Communs"
A photo of a part of the library where tables had computers with tablet to do digital painting using Krita. I'm helping a young girl on the photo. She is painting a sunset.
Top down photo on a table of three A4 sheet of paper and my sketchbook (with a sticker Pepper&Carrot on it). The sheets shows the template of my comic workshop, and two examples of comic in three panels done with ballpen.

First comic: Carrot is about to receive a book on the head, but the book is magical and fly away.

Second comic: Pepper tries to bring a caldron to the cave. She unfortunately falls in the void outside of the stairs with it. Fortunately, the caldron transforms into a parachute and smiles.
One of the room set for the talks. A screen, a projector, a computer, many empty chairs on a terrace surrounded by endemic plants and tree of the island.

@davidrevoy C'était super d'avoir eu la chance de t'y rencontrer ! Merci pour ces moments de partage.

@davidrevoy Looks like a fun event.

Just a tip, if you wish to protect the privacy of those in the photo make sure to black it out (solid color) not blur. Blurring can be removed.

@davidrevoy Las acuarelas siempre me han parecido el arte pictórico más difícil. No hay posibilidad de corregir errores 🤷🏻‍♂️

@davidrevoy Pepper's really moved from being a Magrat to a Tiffany Aching in these stories.

Headology is still the best magic though.

@davidrevoy
Brilliant. I really like the dark scenery and the serious beginning. The plot twist and how the previous episode is picked up was a surprise 👍. Besides the wonderful graphics I really like your storytelling. Thank you for this new episode of #PepperAndCarrot

A WIP webcomic panel of the future episode 38 of Pepper&Carrot "The Healer".
It takes shape! The release will be next week, and the beta is now ready for translation. 🤩

Pepper, knee near an injured soldier and heal him with a single hand. Carrot, her cat is watching the scene with attention. The view angle is low, and the feet in foreground of to other characters are framing the scene.

Hey, from now on, I'll be totally inactive on Twitter.
Goodbye Blue Bird.

Blog-post: davidrevoy.com/article964/good

A digital painting of a cute blue bird with a hat made of straw, he sleeps under a blanket with symbol on it sewed of 'reply', 'fav' and 'reshare'. He left his bagage on the side, the clock is broken. It's a preparation to a long sleep. A floating scroll has written on it "The End".

@davidrevoy I think thats a good reason to make a cool illustration!

@davidrevoy After your post in Twitter I decided to create a profile on Mastodon.
Also, I like the visual part of Mastodon, there are many many cute illustrations with mammoths (or mastodons 🤔)

Thomas Frans 🇺🇦

@davidrevoy Good to hear. It can't be an easy choice to make as an artist as you probably want to reach as many people as possible with your artwork, but with the current state of Twitter, it makes sense to leave.

I'm back after a weekend of signing sessions at the #trollsetlegendes Festival in Belgium. I drew on more than 50 books, met amazing people, and it gave me a lot of energy, motivation, and joy! Thanks to all of you who contributed to this unforgettable moment. 💜

A photo of David Revoy, made from the point of view of a visitor at the start of having the book four of Pepper&Carrot signed at Trolls & Legendes Festival, in Mons Belgium, 2023. 

It's a top-down photograph in color made from a smartphone of a seated white person around 40 years old smiling and happy, with a short beard and a mix of brown and white hair. He wears a tee shirt with the great Great A'Tuin (Discworld, T.Pratchett), and also wears a glove for drawing (synthetic, black) and starts to doodle into a book open. The book is Pepper&Carrot four by Glénat, with its dark violet colors in the introduction. The table has drawing material on it (Tipp-Ex, Pierre Noire, white markers, and a kneaded eraser), a little box with a tux sticker on it, a glass of water, and the table are covered with fabric in black. A label "David Revoy" is on the front to indicate the booth to the visitor. In the background: the library shop of the Festival with many comic books.

Work in Progress on episode 38: yesterday was an important milestone with the 'Alpha-FR' version posted for the proofreaders and contributors. For more info, check the second production report on the blog: davidrevoy.com/article962/futu

Here are four work-in-progress steps on a scene. It's not finished yet, and a step 5 to paint-over and increase details and harmonize everything is necessary before the release.

A scene of comic in 3 panels. Speechbubble were removed. We can see two characters, an archer and a halfing white wolf in front of a creature inactive, with smoke. Next panel, they speak something, last panel, they start to rescue a member of their group on the floor: a warrior.

This is the storyboard idea: large brush strokes.
Same scene as previous image, with thinner line, it's the step 2: drawing.
Step 3 of the same scene, with flat colors for the characters and 3D backgrounds pasted.
Step 4 (mentioned it is not final, still "blocky") of the same scene, it's the shading, the scene start to get flesh and ambiance. The character acting is still a bit blurry and not well defined, made with large brush strokes. 

The step 5, not posted because still on my TODO will be "detailing."

@davidrevoy
There's something I am wondering since months if not years.

Allow me to take the opportunity here.

When I first discovered Pepper & Carrot I quickly went to the very first episodes and read all of them.

I was surprised to find translations in Platt(deutsch/düütsch), i.e. Lower German.
It's a separate language next to High/Standard German. There's fluctuating support w.r.t. teaching it.
Pepper & Carrot could be one way to preserve the knowledge.

@davidrevoy Superbe, comme d'habitude. Je vais montrer ça à mes élèves et à mes enfants pour leur faire comprendre tout le processus de #creation . :blobcatheart:
Je mentionnerai aussi l'utilisation que tu fais des #logicielslibres of course. :blobaww:
