However, it does come at a premium.OTTAWA, ONTARIO-(Marketwired - Nov. If you have a lot of spare cash, or can get a good deal (they apparently sell pretty cheap educational copies for students, and Humble Bundle has offered it at a great discount twice), Corel Painter is probably slightly superior overall.
Corel Painter has some persistent issues with application stability, with a running joke being that, much like Star Trek movies, the even-numbered ones are better. I have yet to see Krita crash when I was using it. The default brushes are a bit more underwhelming, although again, you can replicate all of the premium brushes with the right tweaks. I am honestly not certain how the Krita and Corel Painter particle brushes compare, although a fair amount of the premium brush packs from Corel Painter are variations on particle brushes that do some pretty amazing things. As best I can tell, the Krita brushes act more like regular digital art brushes with a few small tweaks. Their Thick Paint, Real Oil, and Real Watercolor brushes look and act like traditional media. While the gap is narrowing, Corel Painter is still probably one of the best pieces of software for replicating the look of traditional artwork. This is where the Corel Painter lines pull ahead in my opinion. Both programs have many people giving brushes away for free and (outside of Painter Essentials), you generally have the ability to build any brush you might buy as long as you learn how to adjust brush parameters. I don't know if there's a corresponding version of sold Krita brushes. Similarly, brush packs for Corel Painter retail for about $30 each (and are generally not available for Essentials).
Getting the latest annual version of Corel Painter will set you back around $200, and the upgrades are about $99. Corel Painter Essentials costs about $40 minimum. This is an obvious one for a lot of people. I am more familiar with Corel Painter than with Krita, but I will give it a shot Expense
