A Little Color to Perk Up My Day

/

It’s always fun to throw some paint on the page. After spending several weeks to draw some simple characters using the Paint Studio Pro EX bezier pen, I feel that I deserve a little amusement before I continue working on with this page. It’s the drawing background scene that’s going to be hard — there’s going to be a crowd of Moai leaving the soccer stadium.

Thank you, Color, for making my day. Oh, I should mention that my work load at my contract job just tripled. It’s part of the job. That’s life!

Today I felt like working on my book for the first time in two months. My part-time job is over and I feel like I’ve crawled out of a cave after a long spell of suspended animation. My, how the world has changed!

I decided to bite the bullet and give the Clip Studio Paint update another try. There were still problems with severe lag when hitting Ctrl-Z and when painting with large brushes, but I needed to work on page 20, which could only be done with the latest version.

The image above seems very much darker than when I created it in Clip Studio Paint EX. Maybe my eyes are lying to me. I’ll figure it out tomorrow.
