Even though it's all in Japanese, I think it's very easy to use. Very much self-explanatory, simple things to make our painting life easier To be honest, I really miss having the brush control on my tablet pen right-click, because I'm so used to that from Photoshop, but it looks like things are improving on that sense in FireAlpaca as well.ĬloudAlpaca also updated to the previous FireAlpaca version, you can download it here: dlkr8sdxu圆zi./d…Īre you drawing your manga and having all sorts of ideas while you are away from your computer?

It's Friday! And we have an update from the marvelous people at FireAlpaca HQ! I hope you found this tip useful, please let us know if you have any doubts in the comments Do turn it off when you want to draw a lot of dots or points, and for pixel art. It's up to you but remember that Correction usually messes up your painting strokes. For the most part, I use 0 correction, but sometimes I want a wash to be super smooth and I will turn it on. When you rely too heavily on Correction, it might seem as though you're just tracing your sketch, instead of giving the lines a good personality, if that makes sense.Ĭ) Coloring and effects: Here, it depends. I also think it's not a good idea to become too dependent on Correction when it comes to lineart, because trully nice, strong lines come from smooth movements in your arm and wrist. ![]() Any higher than that, Correction tends to be a little bit faulty and usually leaves a bump in the line. The reason is that I want my lines to be as natural and free as possible, and I don't really mind if I don't get them super smooth.ī) Lineart: Here I use a value of 10, and it works wonders with my lines. Correction works with any given brush, so yes, you can also use it with brushes that you imported into the program.Ī) Sketching: I use 0 correction for this stage. This also explains why it has a lag with slower computers, since it's an operation that the program calculates at the same time as you're drawing. So what does it do? When set on any value higher than 0 (up to 19), it will make the lines that you're drawing smoother and less jittery. You'll find it as a drop-down menu in the upper section when Brush tool is selected, next to AntiAliasing.

However, some settings will appear on the Brush Control Pannel, very handy indeed! It's located next to the Add Bitmap Brush button, at the bottom of the Brush Pannel.ģ- Select the file you want to use and it's done!Ĥ- Now you can play with the settings, as always, by double-clicking on its name on the list. I'm guessing they are vector-based brushes and thus they can become way bigger than a bitmap brush without losing their sharpness.Ģ- Click on the "Add Script Brush" button on FireAlpaca. When you click on "Add Script Brush" on the bottom of the page, you get the option of adding. So what in the world is a Script Brush? From the little I've played with them, it feels more like your regular Photoshop or SAI brushes and they respond to the angle of the pen (in Wacom tablets and others which support this function). Brush Control displays the option menu now. Brush script is quite flexible so please use wisely. Preset brush for brush script has been added. It is now compatible to brush script (script control brush). Woohoo!!! We're entering a new FireAlpaca era!! 2.0!!! ![]()
