@lottev I won't lie: it depends on the software developer for me, and for my brain, Celsys just *started* their corpo arc

@HikaTamika Krita isn't *focused* on comics, but it has a comic manager so you can keep your pages together and organized, and they seem quite open to adding more comics features.It doesn't have dedicated tools for drawing panels AFAIK, but I'm quite used to using stroked selections or layers for panel borders, so that hasn't been an issue.I also don't know if it has any tools for speech bubbles, as I prefer to hand-draw mine.What are the specific features you're looking for?

@HikaTamika Krita has rulers/"assistants", which let you snap your brush strokes to lines and shapes, which I think is close to what you're looking for: https://docs.krita.org/en/user_manual/painting_with_assistants.htmlI don't think it has anything like CSP's radial curve ruler, though.The brush system is super flexible, with multiple "engines" available, I think a lot of effects you'd use shapes for in CSP might be easier to do with specialised brushes in Krita.

@eishiya It seems Lazy Nezumi has a radial-curve ruler.... however that works (guessing it adjusts my drawing tablet-driver-side?). So it, plus Krita, might be an interesting combo, if I purchase Lazy Nezumi.
