@inkscape isn't just a beauty and powerful application for #artists, but with extensions like #gCODEtools and #LinuxCNC it becomes a free & open hub for #CAD & #CAM projects. It only requires the investment of a @Raspberry_Pi 5 to set this up. Amazing that it works so much better than #Adobe #Illustrator while cheaper as an iMac (including the CNC machine), isn't it?

Please donate whatever you can, to improve it further with full #CMYK and @GTK support...

If you are an artist and hate to pay for software subscriptions consider the Affinity software. The learning curve is not bad coming from the other software. They have a sale running right now: https://affinity.serif.com/en-us/photo/?gad_source=1&gclid=CjwKCAiAi6uvBhADEiwAWiyRdvAeMPT2USDLwyOVZ5iSpDxjVzt55OzmjEM5zO28feH5NKqKXEYJoRoCe1wQAvD_BwE

Finally got #aseprite didn't know that you could get it for free by compiling it yourself.

Any tips that you may consider essential? Thanks!

I like what Semple stands for, but his latest Kickstarter is quite off-putting, so, er, here's a bunch of things he could have pushed on a blog instead of trying to get money for software he doesn't even have people in place to build.
