WARNING: HUMONGOUS FILE!My first tutorial ever Q U Q
I'm sorry, I'm a horrible teacher OTL
But please enjoy <3
Ask questions if you want, and I'll do my best to answer them!
It was supposed to be longer, but my computer ran out of RAM space and the scratch disks were full, so I couldn't resize the canvas to make it bigger orz.
So, I worked on this throughout class time (ICT 9/10), since I finished all my assignments super early. I barely have any more time at home, busy with homework ;A;
Not sure what to say here LOL
But I'm so tired and I should get some more sleep
I hope I can get a Part II out soon, but no guarantees.
Part 2 will probably be about drawing/shading, as my watchers wanted.
Oh yeah, this was made for:

Ah! Thanks for the comment ^^
I'll add that to the ever-growing list of what to add in the second tutorial orz
Basically, it's the size of the tip of your stroke. It'll only work for a tablet, I believe. So for example, if you set it to 0%, the tip of your stroke will be very pointy.
I'm sorry for the horrible explanation, but I hope you got what that mean

uhm 1 question how do you make that the brush is tiny if you dont press hard if you press hard its fat how do i make that?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
It only works if you have a tablet, sorry! It's pen pressure and should be automatic after installing the pen tablet

👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Try right clikking, then the option "Open as administrator" or something like that (not good in translating from dutch). Maybe that works

GAH, I CAN ACTUALLY UNDERSTAND THIS.
THANK YOU.
By the way, I haven't gotten Sai yet since it's so expensive , and I was wondering if it was one of those downloads I could reinstall on a different computer if my current computer were to die, or if it were one of those one-time-only downloads. I figured I'd save up for an art-only computer as well as Sai if that were the case since I have no idea how long my current computer is going to last, haha.

The trial version is free. However, after 31 days, you will have to pay to keep the software. ($70)
