The edges of your brush may exceed the line without coloring, but keep in mind the center point. The "be gentle" is referencing this if the center point of your brush passes over a line to the other side, it will allow color again. This makes it great for working with big brush sizes in small details, since the center point is all that matters. If you drag the center of your brush across an area you want to color and the center point meets a line from the reference layer, color will not exceed that line unless the center point of your brush passes over the line.
lines) in the reference layer, it will not allow color. If the center point of your brush is above pixels that have a nonzero opacity (i.e. If the center point of your brush is above pixels that are transparent in the reference layer, it will allow color. The setting appears to look at the position of the center point of your brush, and compares that to the reference layer. Have fun drawing, folks.I just played around with this for a few minutes, it looks very useful. Yeah, that’s it, everything are clearer now and people can actually see things, congrats, this is just basic image editing I picked up from playing around too much with the Edit Options, really, you can also apply this with your midnight selfies and I wouldn’t care. For me I’m gonna recolor the sisters faces. Ok now the desired color is selected, go to View > un-tick Selection Border to hide those ugly jiggly lines.Įven if you don’t see the selection border, the color gamut is still selected and you can do whatever you want with it. (apologize for making the gif too quick bc I had to retake this with gyazo like 15 times and im tired) So yeah, go to Selection > Select Color Gamut The magic in both CSP and Photoshop is that you can Select Color Gamut.
This time, I want the sisters’ faces color to look consistent with their arms color. Now you finished all that cleaning chores (I also added some small details on their clothes but its irrelevant for this tutorial). Since CSP’s default soft eraser is a dingus, cheat yourself with Airbrush > Soft, and pick this thingy in the color wheel window.Īnyways you can erase stuffs now, really the purpose is just to clean some parts so choose whatever eraser option you want, who cares. Instead of blending it, clean out the areas so they layers below it can be seen. Now you can finally put to use the Posterization layer you created earlier. Blend that layer with the original painted layer by decreasing the Opacity & choose whichever blending mode (I chose Color Dodge for this one). The nodes can be any color you want, but for now just focus on the black/white values.Īfter playing around with the gradient map you get a monochrome layer like above. The cursor will show up a (+) when you move it around the gradient map, which indicates you to add more Nodes. Now you actually need color balance for your painting, black/white is often recommended to see contrast.Īgain, copy-paste your original painting to create a new layer, then edit that layer.
Save your Posterization layer for later use. It compresses your image and gives somewhat an retro visual novel look. This time I played with Posterization (Edit>Total Correction). CSP file, copy-paste the flatten layer into a new one so you can edit all you want with it. This is how the original Desert Roses pic looked like without color edits.įlatten your painting and save it into a new. Patreon | pixivFANBOX | Gumroad | Commission | Ko-fi.
