Mix things up once in a while to test new things. Start with an aspect ratio you’re familiar with.ĭon’t stick with it forever. Let me give you my shortcut idea.ĭo you have a sketchbook you draw in all the time? Do you just use random sheets of paper you steal out of the printer? But What Canvas Size Do You Choose?Īs is the answer to so many other questions like this, the answer is a solid, “It depends.”īut that’s not what you want to hear. I often draw in my sketchbook in landscape orientation, so I’ll switch those dimensions around often. The white silhouette will change along with the numbers. If you’d rather reverse the dimensions to create a wider page than tall, click the arrows to the left of the Width and Height options ( 4). To get an idea of the dimensions of the canvas you’re choosing, there’s a white silhouette of the page ( 5) in the window. A4, for example, is the closest to 8.5″ x 11″ that you’ll get. ( 2) You’ll likely want to use “in” for inches, or “px” for pixels.Ĭhoosing “in” means you have an easy way to tell the difference between A4, A5, A6, B4, B5, and B6 sizes ( 3). That’s in a drop down all the way over on the far right side of the window.
Second, you need to pick what measurement you’re using to find these page sizes. Click on the one to the far left to tell CSP you just want to have a canvas to doodle on. That’s what those five lineart-filled squares at the top of the window are for ( 1). You’re not looking to do an animation or create a comics page or a Webtoon style vertical scroll comic or make an entire comic book (which you can’t do in CSP Pro, anyway.) It’s essentially been the same window, functionally, for years now.įirst, you need to tell CSP that you just want to draw on the screen. Older versions have some very minor differences. This is the window you’ll see in CSP v 1.10.10.
You can use the menu and navigate to File -> New or use the keyboard shortcut CMD-N (Mac) or CTRL-N (Windows) Let’s talk about optimizing for user happiness and end product usefulness. You’d be surprised how big a file it can handle before things start to slow down. You need to choose values to balance out your drawing needs versus the strength of your computer.Ĭlip Studio Paint is not a horrible memory hog, though. Smaller canvases will be easier for a computer to store in memory and lead to a faster computer experience. Higher DPIs will allow you to publish your image at larger physical sizes. It is all a matter of personal preference, most often informed by experience. What resolution and size is the best for drawing in Clip Studio Paint?
