In a previous post, I covered how to easily create flat colors in your CSP illustration. ( https://tips.clip-studio.com/en-us/articles/3250 ) This article will be a continuation of that one where I will cover my personal method for shading, highlighting, and finishing a drawing...    

    Traditional screentone are sheets of sticky, printed plastic with patterns on it that would be applied over line art and then carefully cut away to leave the pattern only in the areas of shading...    

    Getting your art to translate from screen to paper can be a tricky thing. You need to plan ahead a bit and know some basics, but once you have this knowledge you should be able to turn your work into physical prints without too much heartache...    

    One of the coolest features of Clip Studio Paint, if you ask me, is the ability to use 3D models right there in the program while you draw. There are lots of models that come with CSP already, and tons more that can be downloaded from the community created assets directory or other creators. It’s possible to create entire environments out of 3D models in Clip Studio Paint!...    

    Good expressions bring life to your illustrations and comics. The human face is extremely expressive, capable of conveying over 10,000 expressions! Facial expressions can be traced all the way back to our primitive roots, and are a very important part of both verbal and non-verbal communication...    

    I’m always surprised when people don’t know there’s a huge library of brushes, images, patterns, 3D assets, and more that are available to supplement your Clip Studio Paint library, and that they don’t know how easy it is to download these items!...
