Howdy y’all, thanks for stopping by! \(^^)/ I didn’t realize how much I’d missed making speedpaints, but this was SO fun to put together! (It’s been too long (;w;)) I hope you find this lil’ tips n’ tricks speedpaint helpful - I certainly learned a few things while making this one, so hopefully there’s some stuff in here that y’all can learn from too! (All the links I mentioned in the video are up in the description if you need them!) °˖✧◝(⁰▿⁰)◜✧˖° (as ever, please do feel free to let me know any suggestions for future videos - (redraws or otherwise) - here in the comments! 💖)
Will you be making a anatomy video?
I love this guy
Would you be willing to link your brush set fir CSP?
Would you be willing to make tutorials for this program
Do you have to pay to use clip studio? I'm looking to know cause i'm interested in making a comic.
I just bought my first drawing tablet and got clip studio paint and this comes up! Love your art style and thank you for the tips x
Soooo..... U mentioned comics......how bout heartless comic..... Ya know? 😅 Also love the new fall like aesthetic!! 🍁
if u made a webtoon with this i certainly wouldn't complain~
I still use manga studio lol. I would like to update/upgrade buuut.... Clip Studio appears to look and work a lot like Photoshop, and I can't make heads or tails of Photoshop.. SO I guess I'll be sticking with Ye Olde manga studio until it stops working lol
who skipped th eintro
8 years and it still looks bad and generic.
ughhh i can never watch art videos without getting the extreme urge to draw immediately... -_- i have things to doooo i can’t drawwww
Beautiful 👏🏽
Is it free?
@Paranoid Artist k
it depends. if you have a wacom tablet, you can download it for free, but only the pro version, not the EX (which is the fancy one). If not, its about 200 US dolars.
Yusssss plz! I would love to see more!
how did you get the real g-pen to be how it is? i love your pen settings!
I randomly stumbled upon your channel and I already love being here lol! clip studio is my favorite program to date and hearing you talk about it is really relaxing. plus you're crazy talented?? the before and after shows how much you've grown as an artist--even though the before is still really good!
Super helpful video, thanks!
I've been listening to so much audio asmr and my god your voice is relaxing af.
you're art is ofc amazing and beautiful as ever,, but not enough people are talking about the poofy cardigan :D 10/10 adorable
This was the most helpful and informative video I've seen for clip studio and I THANK YOU so much for it!!!
If you don’t have Clip Studio Paint or you device cannot support the app. A great substitute on phone is IbisPaintx!
было лучше...
he's making it look so easy 😭
Dammit Alex, I'd love to read a comic in your style! Honestly surprised you and the Wizards aren't just making a comic out of your game (might be a bit faster than the animation), but I love the animations too! This has also been very informative. I have Clip Studio, but I tend to stick to using Krita, just cause I'm used to the button layouts and settings. But this really makes me want to go back in and try again.
The two pages have such a different feeling! I've only started the video, but I must say I enjoy the first layout a lot more - the action panel is big, it draws attention and it's got a lot of impact. But we'll see how I'll feel about it once I'm finished watching!
Man, I use Clip Studio for a little while now and there was a bunch of functions I didn't know the program had or how to use until you explained in the video. Thanks a bunch! BTW, great video!
How do you round off the tip of your Real G pen brush? I've been trying to do that for my ink brush for the longest time but can't figure it out XD
Im litterly in love with your art style
Thank you for the template. I can finally start working on my comics!
Cutting corners may be fast, but when you draw it by hand it feels real, the new drawing feels like a stock photo. The old drawing feels like an actual manga page
do you know why when i use the real gpen and i press a little it do a massive line? again i dont push much...
Just curious, why don't you use the symmetry tool ? This is wonderful work and advice but if you are unaware of that option, I know its made wonders for me!
I loved the original perspective better, but the style and linework of the new adaptation. I felt that the dynamic rope breaking pose in the first spoke more about the situation than anything else.
THE OUTFIT WAS ADORABLE🤚😭
omg loool thats so cool!!!! the improvement ! i started redrawing my traditional manga from 7 years ago into a webtoon format after i got a new tablet XD i felt like i didnt waste time drawing all those years cuz i got better XD i still have no idea how to use the screen tones... they always look too pixely XD
Hi there I know this comment is late but just in case you or anyone else hasn't figured it out yet! You'll notice that some brushes (like the rope and foliage ones in this vid), despite looking like lineart, actually have a white "background" on them which overlaps if you move the layer around. You can fix this in "Expression Color" on the right side menu. Just click the dropdown, select "grey" and then select only the dark square. This removes that white background from the brushes you use on that layer, then you can merge down onto a regular layer once you're finished!
An actual manga series by you honestly would be so cool
Is there anything like this for free? I can't pay for any software but I really want to try and make comics properly.
Wow! This is so cool! Thank you for sharing your progress!!
kskskskskk u didn't add -kun that's probably a cringy phase
i’ve watched 1 and a half of your videos and now i’m subscribed
Thank you so much for this video! I actually have this program but haven't tried drawing comics with it yet (I'm pretty bad with computers lol). But now I'm more motivated to try it!
Question, What Brush do you use for your Line-work? Is it a custom brush or a pre made one? I've always wanted to try out line-work like yours but I couldn't get it down-
ah your voice is so soothing ^^
the text outlines can also be done with edge settings (found in the tool settings by clicking on the wrench icon) which allows all the flexible changes such as edge thiccness and color without having to rasterize the text
Would love to see you work on procreate so I could get some tips!
Take a look at vector layer! Will help with line art even more!
BRUH, MAKE A ANIME I WOULD WATCH IT
BRUH, MAKE A ANIME I WOULD WATCH IT
How does studio clip art work, I can never figure out how to use it
Aah you make it look so easy to use, though I know you knew the program already. It looks really cool! And the page look so good! The old ones were neat too, but I can definitely see the improvement. Especially in the way you set up the panels, a lot of thought went into that and that makes it look so much more clean and prof. ^^ I’m trying to create a webcomic on my ipad, and got Clip Studio because of the smart panelling tool, but I’m honestly SO confused everytime I open the program, because there’s so much going on! I don’t know how to get good at using it, besides of course “just using it”, but it’s hard because I get so overwhelmed and frustrated it makes me wanna quit before I get past the sketching stage. >_
Damn, your old self was really bold tho, imagine being a beginner comic artist and trying out a pose with foreshortening and forced perspective on your biggest panel, legend. I do love the new one tho, it’s definitely way more readable and the highlights are where they should be
God now if I got a manga/comic by you I would go broke. Quickly learning how scarily addictive your art is.
Covid killed my drive to draw, but I guess it’s time to start anew so here we go!
how do you get cc wild words into csp?
the softness of your voice makes me sleepy but I wanna pay attention to your content so a feeling that can only be described as **b r u h** rushes through me everytime you upload. In other words, I love your content!!
How do you all draw so GOOD?! I mean I find drawing oddly hard. Probably cuz I don't rlly enjoy drawing much... But anyway, Absolutely LOVE you're vids! I get to watch you draw super cool/nice/cute drawings and I can listen to nice calm commentary?! HELL YEAH!
this is super helpful for me that can't start with clip studio! your art is awesome and hearing you explaining the program while drawing is nice.
Please tell me this is gonna lead up to a Heartless comic for our viewing pleasure
i been waitin for this one TURN IT UP
Just a quick little critique. Don't space your sound effects so far from the action. For example, on this page, I would suggest putting the "snap" right in-between the two pieces of rope. You actually had it closer in the initial sketch layer. Great work though! I enjoyed this video, and I hope you do more like it!
Oh its so good to have you back. I didn't realize just how much I missed hearing your voice until I started up this video but I have absolutely missed your gentle, caring energy. You come across as excited and very calm at the same time and its just so soothing. Plus I've absolutely missed watching you draw.
This made me remember when I was first learning things of digital programs (best one of not knowing was I had DPI at 1000 for so long)
great video!! your one of my huge inspirations :)
POV: He mentions working on getting back into drawing in this comic-y style and you screamed, because that means you might get to see Heartless as a comic, and really that’s all you want in the world.
im thinking of making a manga on clip studio i have been using it for a while but im kinda bad with it and i need ideas for my manga i have a base idea but any tips for characters and personality for characters?
Eat green
I kind of want to buy Csp but i have no idea how the process of buying it even works, searched everywhere but haven't been able to find anything..can anyone help me?💀
I like the top panel of the old version. It feels very shonen-manga to me. Of course the new version is also cool.
God DAMN I love your art dude
I reallllly want cilp studio but i dont like the fact that i need to pay for it every month :(
Your videos ooze care and love.
oof I forgot you could just use brushes for leaves and foliage... I drew them all by hand and It's by far the longest to do.
Hey! I've already drawn comic pages for a comic, but didn't realise that there was a "safe space" that I needed to think about, is there any way I can save the pages by adding more space? If so how much should I add? Advice would be really appreciated I'm in dire need of it!
I would love to see this become a comic/webtoon because your manga page redraws look so good either way I just love to see the process of making it great job ABD illustrates! ✨😊
I love all the speed lines and great expressions, on the old one I think it very clearly sets the mood :)
When ppl use mAnga over monga I can help but laugh
Oh my goodness. The redraw is SO GOOD
Alex: Talkin about making manga* Me: Ohhh the Leaves are moving XD
If you ever do turn Heartless into a manga/comic, I will definitely read it, and buy the physical copy if there is one
I have spent more time in the asset store than drawing in Clip Studio...
I honestly just binge this whole channel over and over when my mental health gets really bad. There's honestly nothing more calming to draw along to.
WE LOVE YOUUUUU
I’m so glad you going over clip! I bought it for college, because I’m a sequential art major and I was told that this program is what EVERYONE and the their mother uses this program in the industry. I LOVE clip and now it’s the only program I use.
Hey sorry if anyone else has said this but. I'm a graphic designer and I thought I would give some helpful tips to everyone. For type you should never go below 8 point font. Though it might be tempting, anything smaller gets really hard to read in both digital and hard copy. Also if your going to use different fonts for different things. Try to stick to 2 to 3 max type faces. The more fonts you use in a comic the more complicated it'll be to keep track of A. B it'll start looking messy and clumsy if you're not careful. There's nothing wrong with experimenting with type but keep it clean and easy to read. Though type doesn't always need to be readable for a comic its impotent. Hope this helps.
i have been working on a story for approximately a year now. I really want to make it into comic. however i really want to do it in colour yet my art style is more similar to manga style. the original solution was to make it as a webtoon but i like the idea of making full page layouts... any advice? love your videos!
That sweater is soooo cute! 😍😍
_Why are his shoes one with his pants?_
I have this app but I had no idea how to use thanks
I'm new here, and all I have to say is- WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN ALL MY LIFE? HUH?!
"of questionable quality" *looks at my art* This is called 𝓂𝓎𝓈𝓉ℯ𝓇𝒾ℴ𝓊𝓈 Also: Guessing that Bad-time art program was the Pencil-lookin' sketchbook
Every time I see your videos I get that spark of childish glee for drawing again! Your videos are always an instant click and I cant wait till I get back to drawing with the same dedication and care that you do. You are absolutely owning it with your content, and I hope that your doing well during these tough times!
Wait... Manga Studio IS Clip Studio Paint??? I remember pretty much drooling over the program as a kid but I sorta forgot about it. Now as an adult, I've heard the name "Clip Studio Paint" plenty of times and had no idea it was the same program, just... newer and better and more adaptable?
ngl still wanting a heartless webtoon/web comic, because its such a nice concept
Holy wow I've been using clip studio for years and you taught me a lot of new tricks...THANK YOU
hi
PETITION FOR A STORYTIME VIDEO WITH THE ORIGINAL MANGA!!! pls read it to ussss
Who'd have thought that video was 23 minutes long. ~~~Great content!~~~
You are literally one of my biggest artistic inspirations. Whenever I’m struggling with motivation for my art I watch your videos and it always helps! Thank you for sharing your hard work and improvement with us!✨
I'm quietly dying on the inside
You should collab or at least meet Zachary Jack. You two would get on so well. ♡♡
Okay, but the huge sweater you're wearing in your new sprite looks soo comfy! Like, I want it.
This looks great I missed you, hope you make videos more frequently
