Line tool, and to make a vector layer for them!

Which actually goes over using file objects to make repeating textures, which is the same method I used to make my lace brush shapes! I elaborated on the process on twitter, and I’m just crossposting this here. I thought I did at one point, but unfortunately no, it was for a different tool that I actually don’t have, unfortunately.9,247 notes JanuMaking & using a lace brush in CSP I’d provide a tutorial for more information then what I have on this tool, but unfortunately I can’t find one. While you can colour with this tool, it’s best to use it for lineart, because it doesn’t blend. You CAN do this with a few different tools though, which I’ll go over later, so if you don’t have a tablet, then don’t fret! You CAN still do this.Īlso if you look at the picture, you should see some intersecting lines, and looking at the lines, you see that colours and lines made with the pen tool don’t blend.

With that in mind, you can’t really do the same thing with a mouse, because there’s no differing levels of pressure with a button, it’s either pressed, or not pressed. Here’s some examples of the pen tool at work….please ignore how horrible my lines are…Anyway, also, you may have notice the smooth transition of width in the line, this is essentially because I’m using a tablet, just in case you don’t know how I got the smooth lines. Because of that, the tool is generally good for lineart and that’s about it, you could paint with the tool as well, but I’d just suggest using it for lineart. The tool has a hard edge by default and doesn’t really blend at all. This is the Pen tool, it’s essentially the typical brush default brush you see in just about every art program. This is the first tool I’d like to go over. I’ll likely be editing this in the future to fix it up and such). These are the primary tools you’d use in SAI. If anyone wants me to, then I may go over them later when I get a bit more experience and knowledge of them.

First though, I just want to say that you may see some tools here that you may not have, this is because they are custom made and not made by the developers of SAI, I will provide a link to them, but I likely wont go over these tools as they are optional and I have yet to use them all. First off, you should see a black outline of one particular part, this is where I’ll be going over things at first. This is the interface/GUI of SAI, it can seem a bit daunting I know, with everything on it, but that’s what this is for, to help with that.
