Summary
In this chapter, we covered the reasons for inking and some basic principles for making clear and dynamic inked lines. We explored the marker and pen tools, two of our workhorses for making inks in Clip Studio Paint, and learned how to adjust the pressure settings in the pen tools to customize our tools. We talked about inking on vector layers and the benefits of doing so. We also went over some inking tips specific to creating comic panels and learned how to duplicate layers to simulate ink from pencil lines. Now you can take a control of inking tools!
Let's take another step in becoming a Clip Studio Paint master. In the next chapter, we will discuss how to ink some special effects. We will also make a brush with custom brush tips to produce a special effect, and discuss more of the special tools such as creating textured ink brushes, which will expand your digital drawing utilities.
