Just put those layers all in a folder, duplicate it and then merge all the layers in the new folder. That way if you don't like it for some reason, you could just hide/delete the new merged layer.

If you're scared like me to do that, put your files in a group, duplicate, hide the OG layer and then merge the copy. Paint on that. Some of us still need to build confidence so the backup really helps, keep drawing 🎉💕

as a traditional artist who sometimes uses digital, I've learned that my preferred way of rendering is a base sketch, refined sketch + flats and multiple layers for the rendering. I personally don't like having a very clean look, and a messy style requires messy workflow haha. The rendering layers don't have a specific order to them, just separate them if I feel like I need to continue on a separate layer

I usually fill in my character a random color- and quick clip group that layer. Then in that group I’ll color each thing separately (clothes, skin), and then if I want to add details to clothes or smt I make THAT layer a quick clipping group as well. Sound super tedious but I’ve been doing it for awhile and it’s saved me time.

I would really love to see a full video explaining this technique cause the time you save when you pre render everything before the final is pretty cool. So like let me see if I got right though you basically color and rough render each mask and then for the final render you connect it all which will take less time and be easier cause everything is kinda “render sketched”

@ryncloud23 23 күн бұрын

Guys, if you find it nerve-wracking to merge all your layers together, you can turn all your layers on and swipe your canvas down with three fingers at the same time. Then, select “copy canvas” to copy your layers and then paste! This will copy and paste your layers as one big layer and you’ll still have your original layers underneath that big layer if you ever decide that you dont like it. ❤

When I started learning about masks, I was shocked Things I spent weeks doing was just "take a color around this area and paint, and if you want to change it, just lock the layer and change it :D" Not only did it feel like cheating, but it's also really hard to achieve the same look digitally if you don't know how to use the tools and brush. I spent some days knowing exactly what I wanted, but I just couldn't find a way to do it despite knowing it existed, and I also because I didn't knew the name to it. Every time I draw after hours, I will be "oooh fk I should be doing this in other layers and using mask ggrrrrr"
