I kinda understand the subscription. It is a live service after all, but I do think they should give the option to keep buying any of the new features (like buying expansion packs) for people who just don't want to subscribe.

the realistic color mixer is HUGELY overlooked by many!!! Only Rebelle 5 could do it and it's really a huge step imho.

I only wish they would release some sort of roadmap for what updates they are planning for this year. Right now it's like buying a cat in a bag. You pay upfront for a whole year and you may get five cool new features every month, or you may get one unnecessary feature every six months. Right know we have no way of knowing which it will be.

I've used CSP EX since it was still named Manga Studio and all I can say is that I'm really disappointed by 2.0. I was expecting a major rework of the software to optimize it for high end hardware because it desperately needed that; instead they just held off adding new gimmicky features for a few months then released them all at once to justify the version bump, but in essence it's the same 10+ year old program... The silver lining though is that I discovered Krita and I'm in awe, I'm slowly using it more and more until eventually it fully replaces CSP EX in my workflow.

Liquify mulitple layers sounds great! I remember before the main problem for me was they did not have good kerning, which made it unusable for comics (if you care about typography). If they fixed that, I'm happy.

I like that they've added perceptual color blending and the fish eye ruler, but I really wished they would fix the performance of their story mode. Once you get above 30-40 pages, doing any changes to the page order or adding/deleting pages takes ages. In the early stages of the comics process I like to work with rough quick sketches, and often add or remove pages, and when it takes 30 or more seconds just to delete a single page it becomes super annoying to work with, and it just gets progressively worse the more pages you add.

I bought the perpetual license because a good chunk of these features are already showing themselves to be very useful. Also as an owner of an ipad who uses CSP when away from home it is likely in the future I may subscribe to their dual plan as it means both the PC and ipad are up to date.

If you use it to letter comics the text wrapping update will make life so much easier and has been a long time coming. Most of the other features are neat. But the wrapping was worth the price to upgrade. I'm holding off on the update pass until I see some game changer features roll out.

If you're already paying the subscription on the ipad/Android, you do get the V2 update automatically without any extra charges, which is nice! I assume that's likely gonna be the case for the rest of the Update Pass for ipad/Android. Though, I just wish that if they *really* had to go down this route, they could've at least merged the subscription for both the Android/iPad access and the Update Pass on PC ver because so far it seems like you still have to pay both separately which is :/

I'm excited for some of the new stuff for Text tools and perspective.

Been with celsys since the illustudio days . My favorite software by far

I like CSP and use it daily as a professional illustrator and in my animation pipeline but this isn't really an update worth calling 2.0. just some gimmicks added while there are core issues with the program - an underwhelming text tool (it seposed to be for comics!), the lack of scrubbing for animation, and a 2.5D the realistic mixing is nice and the warp text and alignment are essential (and so basic) but it's not enough reason for me to feel I need the upgrade and try to understand the confusing pricing system

I just want a decent text tool... And auto-align elements to their borders and centers when dragging.

So fast!!! Thanks brad!! ❤

I went ahead and upgraded my copy to version 2 today but I'm going to wait a little bit to see what other features they're planning for it in the future before I go all in on a subscription

I am definetly one who did a negative takes on my channel. My main issue is the perpetual model really being an annual upgrade now for one fee. The sub model (update pass) on top of it to get incremental feature updates is where I lost it. Usually, any software you get, comes with the features of that annual release, e.g., 2.1, 2.2. Clip changed the language after the backlash to call then feature "previews." Ironically enough, if you want all the features, at least at this point, the update pass is the cheapest option because you blow right past the perpetual versions. So for professionals, if you are going to pay anyway, you might as well get the update pass and be done with it. The drawback is, if you stop paying, they roll you back to the last perpetual update you got. Just to be clear, I would have paid a one-time fee for an annual model with all features. Its that double dip that got me. Still undecided as to what Im going to do.

I bought pro one time purchase for windows and have a yearly plan for android (tab s8 ultra). I am so glad for the align tool. I was wishing it had this for awhile now.😊 CSP is awesome!!

I wish someone could make a cheap app that can do these things with the 3D models, such as mapping the hands and making the model look the same as your hand, like how ToonSquid was made to be a cheap app for 2D rig animators.

The hand thing alone is worth it to me!! I am...okay...at drawing hands. But sometimes it does take me several tries to get the look I'm going for. To be able to simply put my hand in that position and get a reference at whatever angle I want? Wow!

Egad! Wow! Thanks for the demo.

love your videos... hate that clip studio paint keeps having android version on annual subscription yet windows version is possible to do one time purchase.

apparently, 2.0 is no longer perpetually usable offline (requires internet every 24 hours for verification)

Question on your Acer ConceptD 3 Ezel pen. How do you draw without clicking the buttons on the pen? How do I disable it? I can't seem to find it. I just want that whenever the pen comes in contact with the screen, it draws. Not by coming in contact and have to press the button to draw.

Cool the light auto shading 😁

Liquify multiple layers at once is worth the upgrade price on its own! I've been dying to have this feature since they first showed us liquify.

Hi Brad, do you happen to know any app that allows to create animated full body cartoon like animoji? I was looking for an app to draw and create animated chibi but wasnt sure which app to get

Yeah I think this is a solid upgrade. I’m excited for the shading and all the font/text features. There was another option I saw on the website but couldn’t find anything about it or price. It’s called Clip Studio Debut. I remember Manga Studio Debut. All it said that was the basic features of Clip Studio Paint. So I’m not sure if it’s a cheaper option or what but that’s what it sounded like.

the hand capture thing will come in very handy

If i'm not mistaken, it's a one off payment for a perpetual licence upgrade from v1 to v2, but after that upgrade, you get 2.1 2.2 2.3 etc up until 3.0, which then requires another payment to upgrade from 2.0 to 3.0. Or if you would like to upgrade from v1 (perpetual) to v2 (subscription), then you can buy the update pass which you pay annually for all future upgrades.

I think they may have clarified that the perpetual license doesn't get "early" access to new features, but once they are fully developed and deployed, you will. At least that's how I read it, I upgraded right away, there's a discount currently if you already own v1. :)

Question: Have you had a chance to review the Nomad 3D design software that can be used with the iPad?

Thank you for the showcase! I think I'll currently stick with CSP 1 because the upgrade package says on their website it doesn't include updates? And that's sadly just iffy since I'm an amateur.

I tried CAS but the lines were jagged AF. Went back to Sketchbook Pro. I have to old version A/D on my PC so I can control the image size and DPI.

Here is the issue with subscription for me. I have so many different services and I hate seeing bunch of transactions and notifications that happens every month because of them. I try to choose annual payment options if possible for this reason but even then I get about 10+ transaction notifications a month. I'd pay like $1000 (That's like 200months worth?) if there is a one time permanent option...

Does anybody know how to undo the "Hide" button on brush settings. I hit the hide button and can not figure out how to get it back.

i've been on the monthly 4 device for a year and will still keep it because it gives me all updates no matter the version at the standard cost I've been paying

What is sweet about this upgrade: Most everything (that shading assistant and hand camera thing look simply awesome) What isn't: For us longtime CSP owners, not be eligible for any further 2.x upgrades sans subscription. They botched it badly in here and I still resent it. This said the 1.x EX upgrade is like 40 bucks at current sale price... oh well.

what do i do if i go to head models in the materials menu and it doesn't show anything? do i need a change an option or download anything?

I love clip studio, I've been using it for about 2 years now, however my only complaint is that they don't have enough filter options.

That hand webcam thing seems so cool. It's too bad my main desktop doesn't have a webcam. :(

CSP, you were the chosen one! It was said that you would destroy Adobe, not join them! Bring balance to art programs, not leave them in AAS darkness!

Does anyone know if there is a similar plugin in photoshop for automatic shading?

I bought 2 years ago CSP but didn’t like it. It’s cloud was extremely clunky. Thanks for your video!

I wanted to comment here again to hopefully make others aware if something I thought was a given but apparently isn’t: the new version does NOT allow for multiple device use. Meaning if you buy or upgrade version 1 to version 2 on one computer THATS ALL YOU GET. You CANNOT download it onto another computer UNLESS you either buy it TWICE or sign up for the subscription plans. Personally, I’ve never felt more betrayed and disappointed in anything in my life. I was a kid when Adobe did the subscription transition, but it was EXPECTED. Everyone saw it coming. They left little to nothing to the imagination. They told you flat out what was what. CSP has done some seriously shady, backhanded work with this one. And those “cool new features”? Yea, there’s issues with those too apparently. Some have said that they don’t even get them when the upgrade unless they sign up for the subscriptions. CSP, you’ve really done your loyal customers dirty. 👎👎👎

What's throwing me off is that fisheye lense perspective should be a variation on 5 point perspective. I'm curious how they are making it work with 3 point, as I'm not sure it would.

Is the subscription price for all versions? Do I have to pay 25$ for PC and 25$ for iPad?

I got the update pass, from 1 to 2 but, they don't let me use the program with 2 devices, my computer, and my laptop, so I think I will go back to 1 for the time being since I need to use both devices to work, this until I get money to buy the proper update instead; good thing the update pass is free for a month

hey brad I've been waiting for a blender video bud

How’s the animation tools? I really like the direction they were going in with v1.

As cool as these features are, I wish they had spent more time optimizing the software to run faster, especially with large/ and or textured brushes. I use procreate and can very quickly manually paint with large brushes with little to no lag at all, but if you do the same in CSP, the lag is painful, even on high end hardware. If the software was snappier, I might get back into using my drawing tablet, but for now it will sit on my shelf and will continue using my ipad. As much as I love paint tool sai for its speed, it just doesn't have enough features at the moment to consider using (though for a one man team, SAI is amazing)

Does all of these applied to the android/iOS version?

can someone pls ans my question: i dont have the CSP 2.0 license .. so i can't get the any CSP updates from now on?

i will probably not be using any of those features other than the blending, auto shading, and maybe the 3d feature and since i got a free upgrade i might as well just use it but i dont think its worth it for me to get the subscription to get more features, since even though i have been using clip almost every day i barely use most of its features (hell i have the full version aka EX and i barely animate on it (i did get it for comics tho which i havent been doing much lately)) so get it if you so want, i recommend upgrading if you get it for free, but if you use clip in the same way i do (even if you animate and make comics) the new features we currently have are not worth it 60 bucks to upgrade and even less 25 bucks a year for new features that will be available later on on 2.0 and fully available on 3.0 (which is promised to be released next year) unless you really want a certain feature, or you are certain you will fully use the subscription, i dont recommend getting it ever.

Does anyone know of photoshop or any adobe software has something similar to the 3d head and body reference models?

Do we get same update for Clip Studio Paint 2.0 on ipad?

Is it perpetual on windows or subscription? The previous one I have is perpetual, still have the disc. If it's gonna be subscription then I'll stay it on android and the windows old 1.++ will remain.

It’s an ok app but i had around sixty items i wanted to move off the app to store on a usb stick and lost all but about ten so either i cant figure out how to do that or thus app isn’t so good, put a lot of time in to items i lost User beware

Bought mine today on sale, more bang than the bucks that I paid for, I lost time drawing..

the color blending and hand posing tools are the most compelling to me (and also its insane to me that WORD WRAP is being locked behind 2.0 like what the fuck).

I dont use the 3d features of csp so this major update was a bit of a disappointment. However I did like the new color mixing features. I wish they would redesign the perspective tools, i find them so irritating to use. But otherwise, i love the software and the annual subscription price is a bargain.

Hi just had a quick question if you purchased version 1 in 2022 you get version 2.0 completely free right? I'm not sure who else got an activation code/ email about it but I wonder if there are any strings attached ?

how does one install 2.0 i cant find anything on the installation

Is there a reason the software seems so laggy in the video? I haven't used CSP 2.0 yet, but I generally switch between photoshop and csp.

Can I still buy it without paying subscription?

I'm kind of confused, can anyone please help? I already have the one time purchase license for EX version, can I upgrade to ver 2 one time purchase option or is it a subscription thing?

Great video but you didn't show where the setting is too adjust the perceptual shading is. You did a weird zoom in thing. But everything else you showed where it is at. Please make another video about it or try to instruct me through contents. Thank you

Please review the one plus tablet

Does CLIP STUDIO PAINT PRO and CLIP STUDIO PAINT EX have all the features shown in the video?

I've been waiting YEARSSSS for CSP to add an align tool 😭

I first started watching this forgetting that I had the video speed on slow from speed art. And when he started talking I was wondering why he is talking so slow. And remembered why. 😂 I just now discovered him.

shame you didn't talk about the difference between EX and Pro. I'll have to pay a lot more to upgrade EX for very little extra features, and the standard 2 licenses you used to get is now only one, so I have to pay twice fo my studio/home computer.

Will this be a part of the iPad version of the software?

This doesn't really change much form what I used to do soo why get it?

Are This updates for iPad???.

Honestly, the licensing doesn't worry me. If you're a professional artist the license/subscription is very reasonably priced and if you're a hobbyist artist, you very likely can live without the bleeding edge new features. The base version will be more than enough for most people, you probably don't need the upgrade plan. Plus, they have sales like 4 times a year, so you can get an annual subscription for like $17 or re-up your perpetual license with a bunch of new features for $30 every couple years.

Hi, I'm confused between 2 graphics tablet HUION HS611 and XP_PEN Deco 01 V2, which should I get, Deco is 10-15 $ more expensive in my area. Please help me decide

which pen display should i buy with a budget of 250 £ as a begginer.

The shading assist for me is a life saver

It makes me buy Clip Studio Paint.

nice updates for 2d artists!

The background save and the curved rulers are the only options that I deem worthy enough for any professional to have a reason to upgrade. ❤

Not sure if it's worth it. Most of these features are actually stuff I never really thought about needing and they have yet to add some of the most used features from Photoshop and procreate. Idk still trying to decide if upgrading is even worth it

it does kind of irk me that there's no way to put a custom head on a body. Like it's not helpful to have a customizable head and a customizable body but no way to use both at the same time. The head doesn't snap onto the body, and moving it manually just makes it clip (no pun intended) through the default head. even a feature to hide the default head would be nice

Alignment tools?! SOLD!

Is the subscription worth it?

Would you let people know that if they upgrade to V2 of Clip Studio Paint, people will not ba able to use it Offline and save their work. I just ran into this issue and did not read about it prior to upgrading.

is it worth buying if you're a photoshop user? I dont think so but offer is nice.

kind of sad that theyre going the prescription model- its a very affordable price point but I really admired CSP for being "the last bastion" so to speak

2:25 no way!

I'm disappointed they didn't improve the UI I probably won't use a lot of this stuff till someone else shows me how it can help

I wish they wouldn't make it monthly payement, I didn't spend 200 dollars (it is very expensive in my country) just to pay them more so Im not gonna upgrade that.

Argghhh name your layers. You playing it wild and loose over there.

No wonder is only subscription base now 😂

Can you please review colors live for Nintendo switch

I was hoping they were going to rebuild the app itself.... it's so clunky which is why I always end up going back to photoshop or procreate

Am i reading this right, that there is a sale of the perpetual license, for only $20 right now?

review of oneplus pad

Would love a better iPad experience

is this Pro or EX?
