Vector portraits

Hi, I've started developing a game that requires a lot of vector portraits (some examples below), I've been drawing these and enjoy the art style, and have been enjoying drawing them. But because of the type of game I'm making, I actually need a LOT of portraits like these.

I'm using Figma, because it's simple & free. But is there a better programme I should/could be using, one that would speed up my workflow? Preferably one cheap or free.

Thanks

Have you tried Krita?

Thanks. This doesn't look like vector though, it looks raster. Am I right?

Yes you are right, it is raster. However, if you go to the Layer menu & click the "+" dropdown you can add Vector layers. I've only dabbled with Krita as I'm more of a Photoshop, Illustrator, Gimp & Aseprite user these days. Give it a go, it's powerful & does have animations covered too... oh & it's free & open source :)

Have you tried Inkscape? This is 100% Vector... sorry, I totally forgot about it as I hardly ever do Vector based graphics thesedays... I'm getting forgetful in my old age ;)
