Thanks Pilou,
I don't use Krita for Digital Painting but image editing, like most users here would use Gimp or Photoshop.
I've been using Gimp for very long but it isn't capable of dealing with HDR images nor EXR. Krita is and that's what made me start with it. However it's the Tonemapping and Transformation layers that make it perfect for photoediting and Sketchup/Thea/Krita is a very very powerful combo for post pro.
Maybe that one is good too, I don't know, but Krita is being underrated because it looks like only a painting software.
Take a look at cage transform here:

I tried Krita for the same reason of doing HDRI pp, but it crashed a few times in an hour. Maybe something changed in the meanwhile?

Maybe, because it doesn't crash that often with me. It does crash sometimes but it's very rare and only on very intensive tasks.
The only thing I noticed is that the crop tool doesn't work well with multiple images open sometimes.
I can tell you that I'm not fully used to it by now, but I find it very interesting and once I get used to it I think it will be a blast!

This one has possibly been mentioned before (I didn't read the whole thread): Affinity Designer. Works great, dirt cheap (โฌ54.99!) and loads of fun.
I have no idea whether the app's up to professional standards, but I'm having a blast. (Pay no attention to the compression artifacts in the image below -not Designer's fault.
)โฌ54.99!
No, I don't work for 'em.

It's a pity that you don't see sooner Gravit Designer because it's free!
(Local + Online)No, I don't work for 'em.

Long time user. Also got their Photo app. Just as good!

Yeah, that one looks good as well. Not even โฌ60.
As I needn't be cutting edge -not a pro- that tiny investment would fulfill my photo editing needs for years.Pretty cool.
Thanks for le tippe, Pilou.

Affinity Designer looks great. Having used vector SW for years I'd say it has plenty of pro potential. The integrated pixel features are a big deal.

A new version of MagicaVoxel (but keep the 0.98 for the import OBJ) !

My set of soft I usually use:
Unfold3D - Very nice tool for UV mapping. Funny, when I tried to find a link to it's offical site I relized that now it's called RizomUV, but I use Unfold V10
Artec Studio - As I use a 3d scanner I need a software for it. Really great to use but damn resource intensive.
Substance Painter - Tried differen texturing software - ended up with Substance.
Marmoset Toolbag - I use it as finakl render, and sometimes for baking normals. In sone cases it gives the best results..
