    CSP: RGB Shift Auto Action

    September 1, 2019 /

    This is a really cool effect I’ve only mainly seen people do in Photoshop. Really cool to find an auto action that works in CSP too. Thanks Raikuki! https://assets.clip-studio.com/en-us/detail?id=1751433

    Photoshop Tips & Tricks

    December 29, 2018 /

    I’m getting a head start on my 2019 resolution to ‘master’ Photoshop. I feel like ‘master’ is perhaps an overly ambitious resolution but it sounds more goal worthy than ‘get to a point where I don’t rage quit in frustration because PS doesn’t do YY like app ZZ.’ With PS coming to iPad as well it seems a good time to put in the time to really get familiar with the software. So with that in mind I’m going to be posting frequently a condensed-ish post with tips and tricks I am picking up and sharing them here. ViewsTips 1 and 2 come courtesy of the incredibly skilled Goro Fujita.…

    Clip Studio Paint Top #7 Tips and Tricks

    January 9, 2018 /

    Clip Studio Paint (formerly Manga Studio) is my favorite  painting app and I’m saddened by the fact that it just doesn’t seem to get the love it should- especially by hobbyists because it is relatively inexpensive and you get to keep it. I can’t say that I am a CSP expert but spend enough time with something and you pick up some things. Here are some tips and tricks that I’ve picked up and use often….

    Review: Design Doll (tips and tricks addition)

    December 22, 2017 /

    [Design Doll Homepage] This app has been out for a while but thought I would still take a moment to post about it and mainly share some tips on using it to help those just starting out with it too.

    Touch Monitor Right Clicking

    December 9, 2017 /

    Found this little gem earlier this week. If you have a touch monitor and want to right click with your finger simply touch the screen and hold it for a couple seconds to get the right click menu to appear. So glad I found this trick! This is probably the main reason I end up going back to the mouse.
