I updated CSP and now have access to the timelapse feature. Yippee! I’m very excited about this. It should make my potential video making process more tolerable.
I used my same workflow as in SAI2, but this time in CSP.
Using what I learned between now and last time, I was able to move much more confidently and even successfully turned my sketch into a lineart.
Not sure if it’s the stabilizer or the hefty software but I feel compelled to draw slower and more deliberately. It could also be the nervousness of drawing in unfamiliar software.
Berryzem sent me a video showcasing various tips and tricks in CSP.
I will be viewing this video multiple times, especially as I become more acquainted with the program.
On a related note, I make slideshows of inspiring art and watch them on the treadmill or whenever I’m particularly bored. I always view these slideshows multiple times and each viewing I am surprised by something I hadn’t noticed before. Repetition helps with learning.
Drawing and painting tools
I’m liking the brush hardness options. I used the roughest setting because of how it combines with the texture. It lends a physical element that I like.
This pencil tool almost looks pixelated, which I like.
Next time I have to figure out how to actually color my picture.
Workspace
Using a toned backdrop is much easier on the eyes.
I want to set up my workspace to closely resemble SAI. It is very customizable so I should be able to work it down to the essentials and only add other tools as I see fit.
I love the cross color picker tool, But how do I undo assigning a new color to one of the corners?
It would be fun to make a zorn palette with the color picker.
Keyboard shortcuts
In SAI2 I use alt+spacebar to rotate the canvas. In CSP you press R, then drag. Alt+Spacebar is for zooming here.
The brush size key shortcuts are the same, which I discovered through muscle memory.
