Managing the amount of details was always a difficult topic for me; especially when it comes to manage them in my backgrounds. I naturally tends to spend too much time on them, polishing corner after corner of my artworks. But over the time I found a way out of necessity and guessing; a couple of rules that allows me to details only 30% while painting almost flat the other part. This video tries to put words on this technique and show how I use it. I had the idea of this video after browsing old artworks, that's why I wanted to make also a "15 years ago" moment in the video and show you how it changed. I hope you learned something and you'll like this very short format, not about Krita for once, but about a painting tip.
