Tell HN: Linux is awesome for Digital Art and Computer Graphics now
- Krita is amazing for digital painting. The most recent version works incredibly well, I'm so happy that I've discovered it! I'm as happy with it as I was with Photoshop. And it works with Wacom tablet really well too.
- Kdenlive is amazing for video editing. I used to be unable to find any halfway decent editor before, but kdenlive is REALLY good now.
- The latest version of SideFX Houdini works really well too! It used to have a lot of issues, but now it's just perfect, and enables me to do any 3D art I want.
- Nuke is great for compositing. This one isn't news though, it's been great for a long time.
- The only remaining thing that's missing is a native 3D modeling tool. The best one I could find is Nevercenter Silo. It has a Linux version, and it's a brilliant program, but it has issues and lags. Nevertheless, it is totally usable, and I'm having lots of fun modeling with it.
