HOLY FREE ART PROGRAMS BATMAN

I’ve had this list sitting around for a while (in case I ever want to try something new) and I thought I’d share it, because why the hell not, everybody loves free stuff. I’ve only used a couple, so for all I know these could be complete shit. BUT YOU NEVER KNOW, RIGHT?

*= available for both windows and mac os

GIMP * - Does a lot of the same stuff as Photoshop.

FireAlpaca * - Similar to Paint Tool Sai, so it’s a good alternative for Mac users.

Autodesk Sketchbook Copic Edition * - Simulates the look of copic markers.

MyPaint * - Basic stuff, nothing fancy.

Pinta * - Drawing program modeled after paint.NET.

Inkscape * - Vector/drawing program meant to be similar to Illustrator.

ArtRage * - Digital painting program; you can get the trimmed down version for free or buy the full version with more features.

Sumo Paint * - In-browser drawing app.

DAZ Studio * - Some sort of 3D model poser thing.

Pencil * - Software for animating.

SketchUp * - Tool for making 3D models. Looks handy for stuff like architectural drawings.

Blender * - Pretty popular 3D software.

escape motions * - Some browser apps, fun to fiddle with when you’re bored (the fluid fire simulation is pretty cool imo).

Twistedbrush (Pixarra) - Seems to be meant for replicating the look of traditional media.

Pixia/Phierha - A popular program in Japan, according to the website.

Krita - This was originally made for Linux and it looks like the developers haven’t ironed out all of the kinks in the Windows installer.

Artweaver - Another trimmed down free thing if you don’t want to buy the full program.

paint.NET - Pretty basic kit, probably good for simple stuff.

Project Dogwaffle - I’m not sure what this one is all about because I couldn’t stop laughing at the terrible website.

Speedy Painter - Lightweight digital painting program.

mtPaint - Originally made for pixel art; simple enough to run on older computers.

Chasys Draw IES - Supposed to be some sort of drawing+image editor thing.

PaintRibbon - Seems to be another plain old basic image editor.

DrawPlus - Looks like it’s made for graphic design and vector stuff.

SmoothDraw - I’m guessing this is a basic thing for people who don’t want to bother with complicated stuff.

Might be useful for some of you guys! Also you should all check out Alchemy, too. It’s really fun to mess around with.

Ugh old art.

Anyways I forgot to introduce this guy.

He was created in a blind ship trade with drxppingpxint

Name: Prime Time Height:5 foot 10 He's the owner of a 50's themed restaurant. He has Dissociative Identity Disorder, and as such has two personalities. One is a stereotypical greaser character that tends to break the law, smoke, and drink. He tends to get Prime Time in trouble a lot. He's gruff but can appreciate someone helping him and is loyal. The other is a bit more of a classy businessman. Smooth talker, a bit more slick. Always knows how to get a story out of someone. Very law abiding helps stray cats out of trees kinda guy. He speaks with 50's slang and refers to 50's pop culture a lot. He almost seems to be stuck in the past, referring to cellphones as walkey talkies and he believes Elvis is still alive.

This makes me want a video game about a zombie apocalypse that only affects men so it’s up to the housewives of 50s’ America to save humanity.

…saving this idea for class.

[banahbanah]

i would play the heck out of that game, it is an amazing idea.

[basedmarinaarchives-blog]

Also can there be a character design screen so you can make your little housewife?

I think it’d be entertaining to see what guys could come up with for making their female-selves. If you ask me.

[starfishface]

I would so play this game. 

I would suck at it but I would play it.

[oxybelis-deactivated20220323]

I’ve never played a zombie game, but you got me at 50’s.

[oldfrax]

Hngggggggg I love 50s clothes give it to me

OMG I already thought of some sort of premise:

In 1953 a certain laboratory on an undisclosed location developed a serum that could genetically modify humans, giving them enhanced speed, agility, strength, and brainpower.

Scientists found a way to modify the serum such that it could only activate itself in the presence of a Y chromosome, thus isolating the effects to men, mostly because of female discrimination at the time.

The serum was a success, and sales skyrocketed just a few weeks after its release.

What the developers did not anticipate, though, was the human body’s incapacity to handle the serum. The mental and physical over-exhaustion triggered a mental decay which starts out slow, but speeds up exponentially within a few months after usage of the serum. The brains of the users are left with only the most basic survival reflexes, transforming the users into strong, fast, agile, emotionless human shells, devouring any mobile life form in their path.

Bites from the affected individuals could place copies of the rogue serum into the bodies of the bitten, giving them the symptoms. Shortly after, the serum evolved into a sort of genetic virus, causing mental decay in just days. No one was safe. No one…

…except the women.

*cue in epic music*

[engine-red]

Can you imagine the shitstorm this game would cause. I’d laugh pretty hard.

Would still play it though.

[theslowesthnery]

Not gonna lie, I’d play the shit out of this.

[rhiannon42]

I approve of this concept 100%

[baaaaaaaaaaaaaaatman]

I want a montage in the beginning of the housewife getting ready to kick ass

She puts on her best dress, a string of pearls, does her hair taking out the curlers, puts on her most stylish flats, and the finishing touch, her engagement ring with the big diamond in it, and when they fight, they look fabulous and kick ass like they were trained by Catwoman and Harley Quinn

[the-inevitable-pinhole-burns]

Seriously though you guys! This post has over 190,000 notes. Someone with video game know-how (or connections!) needs to kickstart this shit. Because it can definitely get funded.

Someone really should kickstart this.

Murderer as his own animatronic. He has no jaw like Balloon Boy so perma-insane grin. I have no clue his color scheme except red eyes (although I’m partial to a yellow bow tie) Shhh… Don’t question the spears. He changed his name when he became an animatronic.
