What useful software is there to draw cartoons on the computer?

Recommend Comicstudio, the world's first professional comic software.

ComicStudio is a professional animation software produced by Celsys Company in Japan, which perfectly reproduces the traditional animation technology on the computer. Make comic creation completely out of paper, and save a lot of money for comic teaching.

Comic studio has completely realized the digitalization and paperless comic production, and the whole process from naming to comic production is carried out on the computer. ComicStudlo software can freely choose various types of special pens. Its unique vectorization technology can automatically shape pen lines. The drawn lines can be thickened or thinned, and the curvature of the lines can be freely modified as required.

ComicStudio needs a stylus. I have used a stylus for three years. I usually use my hands.

Writing pens are colored in Photoshop, but it is the first time to draw lines directly on the graphic tablet.

At first, it felt strange, uncontrollable and empty-handed.

Two days later, I found the feeling that the speed and quality of painting basically reached the level of painting on paper.

Summary of ComicStudio's Work

ComicStudio's working interface is similar to Photoshop's, and so are most plane software interfaces.

ComicStudio must first set up a catalogue of individual works: name, author, specification, storage path, etc.

Set it, which is more in line with the habit of comic creation. Many people use a set of software together, everyone.

Have your own catalogue of works, there will be no mixed files. You can even choose settings for each set of works.

Password, others can't open it at will.

ComicStudio has layers like Photoshop. ComicStudio has three layers:

Drafting layer: responsible for drafting;

Graphics layer: based on pixels, it can be drawn;

Vector layer: the image data is based on vector form, which can be enlarged and reduced at will, and there will be no sawtooth and blur.

The edges of printed lines are clear and sharp. ) The lines of this layer can be changed separately.

Or change the thickness. For example, the faces of the characters I draw are not full enough, and I can

Use the vector line adjustment tool to stretch and adjust lines individually. This seems to be very helpful for drawing longer lines.

Help! I usually paint on this floor. )

(1) draft

Just like drawing on paper, draw a draft on the draft layer with an iron pen. The color of the pen can be set to black.

(like a pencil) or any color. I prefer blue and red, which are easy to distinguish from the original.

The draft layer can have two or more layers. You can type "rough" in the first layer and "fine" in the second layer.

When you get to the draft, you don't have to underline it. And you can set the color of each draft.

For different reasons. This is very similar to typing with red and blue pencils. One more thing: lines typed with ComicStudio pencils.

Stripes are pressure sensitive, and the thickness and color of lines can be controlled by the strength of fingers.

Just like using a pencil.

One of the special features of ComicStudio is that it requires you to treat every frame in a picture as a

Independent unit editing. The advantage of this is that you can edit all the elements in the cell individually. Such as you

You can copy a cell individually. Moreover, I feel that independent editing under different frameworks seems to make use of computer resources.

Benefits. I tried to edit the whole page as a big unit, but the speed of computer operation changed.

Slow, even the lines can't seem to be synchronized with the stylus.

2) Original painting

After dividing the company, enter the first company to edit. The vector layer will appear automatically. The following contents are worth mentioning.

ComicStudio's pen settings.

Shanghei line

ComicStudio has three kinds of pens: pencil, pen and marker.

Pencil: used for drafting. With pressure sensing, it is the only pen that can be colored in ComicStudio, but

But this color is only used to distinguish the virtual color of the draft and the original.

Pen: used to draw manuscripts. There is pressure sensing, and the weight of the hand can control the thickness of the line. The shape of the nib

Shapes can be set as circles, triangles, rectangles and arbitrary polygons. Pens of any shape can be squashed.

Or stretch it to change the angle.

The most noteworthy thing is the "correction function" of the pen. It is almost inevitable that people will always have different degrees of hand shaking when using the stylus, even skilled stylus users are no exception. do not believe

You can try it in Photoshop without correction function. ComicStudio has the correction function.

Can automatically correct the trembling lines into smooth lines. It is said that this is a very advanced technology. check against the authoritative text

The degree of correction can be adjusted, and skilled users can reduce the degree of correction. Because a higher correction setting will

Make the line too smooth. For example, if you draw a sharp corner, ComicStudio will reverse it.

The fold is modified into an obtuse arc. The lower correction setting will faithfully reproduce the painting intention. Both.

You can set a pass according to your own situation. I usually set a smaller one in a small part of the painting.

When correcting values and drawing long lines, set larger setting values.

There are several choices of pens: G pen, round pen and student pen. There are differences in use.

In addition, the pen has a "pointed" setting. You must be familiar with Disney-style lines, right, between the two tips.

Fine, fully embodies the taste of the pen. Drawing this line on paper requires a flexible soft pen.

The weight of the combination pen increases. This line is easy to do in ComicStudio.

The "prompt" function of ComicStudio pen can set the start and end of the pen as prompts. No matter what speed and strength you draw, there will be a nib effect when you start and close the pen. You can also set the start and end times.

It's really amazing where it starts to taper. This function makes friends who lack experience in writing pens

You can draw Disney style lines!

The effect of using a sharp pen is not comparable to that of using a sharp pen.

Pens can also choose transparent colors and white to decorate lines.

Mark: No pressure sensing. Can be used to draw contours, such as crayons and new eyebrows.

(3) Radiation

We all have the experience of radiating rays with a ruler. It's boring to draw so many identical lines!

ComicStudio's awesome function is to radiate, which is so convenient! What I'm demonstrating

When the assistant behind him kept exclaiming oh oh.

Use the template in ComicStudio for radiography. A template is like a ruler (but better than a ruler

Used too much).

For example, draw an ordinary radial line. Choose a template that radiates radiation and put the radiation

Determine the center, determine the size of the pen or marker used, and whether it is sharp (I usually set it

The pen is pointed. Then draw it roughly along the radiation direction on the screen. I didn't see it myself.

Friends who have used and used this function may not understand my surprise when I first used this function: it seems to be in the picture.

Even though there are many invisible rulers, my lines magically move in the direction of radiation, not at all.

There is no deviation. I think this technology should be called "magnetism", just like Photoshop, to align the pictures.

Sometimes, if there is an auxiliary line next to it, the aligned object will automatically * go to the auxiliary line.

Similarly, parallel radiation can be drawn.

Other templates include circles (including ellipses), polygons and arcs. You can edit any curve yourself.

The template can be moved, rotated and scaled easily by a few keys in the left hand.

There are other shapes of templates. ComicStudio comes with many dialog templates with different shapes for users to use.

Shit.
