One of the benefits of using Clip Studio Paint is that it is capable of producing both raster and vector images. In fact, raster and vectors can be achieved on different layers in the same canvas simply by creating the corresponding layer type. Creating vectors in Clip Studio Paint, however, is different in many ways to other vector programs.
Vector images are different from raster images. Raster images are made up of small squares of color, called pixels. Raster images are used in many situations, but they do have some disadvantages—mainly that since they are composed of pixels, they lose quality when made larger. Vector images are made of points that are connected together in the program, and are able to be edited on the fly and resized at will without a loss in quality.
In this chapter, we will learn about both how to create vectors...
