Great work! I have been looking for an excuse to try out Krita. This just might be it. Shameless plug: I am also a sucker for metallic aesthetics, and I made this FOSS library to enable realistic metal textures on the web (for buttons, cards, input elements, etc.): https://www.metallicss.com

OP here! I'm excited to share my latest project, Metalmorphism (https://www.metalmorphism.com), with you all. It is a sibling project to my open source library MetalliCSS (https://www.metallicss.com). I've been obsessively at work to create a high-end and unique metallic look that I feel has been sorely missing from the web. Maybe Metalmorphism can bring a touch of metallic elegance to some of your projects in 2023?
Thank you!
OP here! MetalliCSS is my attempt at achieving a certain quality metallic effect for the web that I wasn’t seeing anyone else doing, without resorting to static images. MetalliCSS produces SVG backgrounds that are tailored around the targeted element’s values for some standard CSS properties (width, height, border-radius, background-color), as well as some custom ones (convexity, metal, seed).
