[Acid Draws] Clip Studio Paint

in #drawing4 years ago

I wrote a post some time ago about testing out Krita but it's been giving me some weird flickering issues when I move the mouse over it, I tried a lot of things like giving it more RAM allocation, disabling f.lux and a few other things but it wouldn't remove the flickering. Since I wasn't that invested or used to Krita I decided instead to try another software for drawing/painting and @hiddenblade recommended Clip Studio Paint. The cool thing about this is that it doesn't cost a lot compared to Photoshop and can be purchased with a one time payment instead of a subscription model, lucky for me there was also a trial version that would let you test it for a few months for free but with a lot of options disabled.

I just wanted to give drawing another try and maybe move onto some paintings later on if I have the motivation this time to follow through. So far I like the software, it's pretty simple to newcomers and has some great brushes and lines to choose from as default. I did check a couple videos for tips and tricks but I think the only thing I learned was that I can press R to rotate the image which is pretty helpful though to get those nice lines since I'm just using a mouse at the moment.

Anyway, looking through the internet for some time I decided to use this as a reference and just see how I can do after another long break from drawing.

Here's a recording of the drawing, watch at 4x+ speed (there's no music playing anyway cause youtube censors you):

anyway, really liking this program so far and will probably try coloring it another day as this took longer than I expected and it's time for bed, although I'll already be sleeping when this gets posted as I'm scheduling it cause youtube's being slow and video is still processing. zzz

Don't really know what anime that is from, don't think I've watched it but decided to add some speech bubbles for lols (read from right to left):

Seriously how are you able to draw so well with a mouse?.

I use my fingers on my smartphone and it's frustrating at times.

Don't know how I'd cope with mouse.

I have it on the same DPI as gaming with first person shooters. :D

It is the first time being talking about Clip Studio Paint @acidyo . Thanks for pointing.

I have Krita 4.2.1 installed on Kubuntu since by default it is predisposed for KDE and it works quite well. Of course, it consumes a lot of RAM.

It is based on the KDE platform libraries and included in the Calligra Suite (formerly known as KOffice).

The advantage of Krita is that it is a free, professional program of digital painting made with free code.

Awesome! You’re natural at it. And that’s even without a graphic tablet!! :p and lol that dialog xD

Love it, me as a non artist will try it out to hahah

Yeah seems newbie friendly so will try stick to it this time and practice a bit more often. ^^

You did it with a lot of patience.
beautiful line work.

I have krita, I downloaded it a few days ago but I can't get used to it, I get along better with medibang paint, I suppose that depends on the comfort of each one, maybe I should try Clip Studio Paint :)

Great job btw.

Thanks!

Haven't heard of that one, will stick to this for a while before I decide if I want to purchase it. Next time I'm gonna try my hand at some painting which is something I'm very unfamiliar with. :3

That editing program looks good. Thank you for sharing it @acidyo, the drawing was excellent.

Drawing talent is really nice to have to unlock if you have one. I am jealous on some people who really have gifted hands to make this. :))

Wow @acidyo you made great picture. Love it.

You have some skills mate!
