- Spilling the tea on why I stopped using Adobe Photoshop as my main art software AND why I now use Clip Studio Paint ♥️ Apologies for the weird editing-I paused a lot while talking...I’m improving a lot lol
NOTE: I forgot to mention that Photoshop recently added line stabilization but it's still not as good as Clip Studio's. But go ahead and comment that I missed mentioning it anyways.

#illustration #artvlog #comics - Jak na to + styl
yes, clip studio is way more intuitive, its UI is more artist friendly, photoshop its like a driving a big truck, and so expensive, i bought csp a few years ago and is the best choice i took also gets better each update, beautiful work you are a pro, your style reminds me Winsor McCays work
Hahaha that's a great analogy 😂 And thank you! I love McCays' whimsical work, what a compliment!
CSP is so damn cheap for that it gives you, it's unbelievable. My only problem is that the launcher and shop is really, really slow. I'm not sure what the problem is, maybe the servers are stationed in Japan or whatever lol but god, it's awful. Brush sites load 5-10 seconds sometimes but I prefer it a lot over photoshop
This is brilliant! I want to do more illustration and needed some guidance. Thank you for shedding some light on this. It helps tons.
No problem! Glad I could be of help
Been using Photoshop for a bit and it never felt quite right when it comes to line art\inking stuff. So glad I found this video. Thank you!
Yes! Photoshop is not designed for inking-definitely give CSP a try :) Thank you for watching!
Thanks for your video. Just one remark: Clip Studio is not so much a rebranding of Manga Studio. The CSP name was already used in Japan, but the software was distributed in the USA and europe as Manga Studio. So it is basically the same software, just now under a unified name.
Seriously?! That's hilarious that they distributed it to us as Manga Studio, I think they might have over-niched themselves, glad they unified it then. Thanks for clarifying
I'm considering between the two programs and your video provides a lot of useful info I was looking for. Helps me so much. Thank you!!
Yay!! I’m so glad it helped, let me know if there’s anything else you’d like me to cover about CSP or illustration in general in the near future. 👍
Adobe is notorious for making making your current software that you have with them obsolete
and then they have the nerve to tell you to pay A LOT of money for their new version.
No discounts, no nothing for purchasing it.
The nerve indeed! 😤
@@JGVIllustrations adobe does 3D artists worse. They basically bought Substance Painter and rebranded it as Adobe Substance Painter. Nothing new, just a community slider and thats all.
@@magnuscritikaleak5045nooo
I love the way you express your impression to make Clip Studio Paint as an artist choice whilst saying Photoshop as an enterprise tool.
It gives us more insight in the product. Great job!
Thanks Clark! I'm glad you understood the nuance there as I'm not against Photoshop entirely, it's just not a good fit for me. I love your icon
(transitioning from traditional mediums to digital art) This was the information I needed to finally decide on a program to learn on, thank you. Not too short or drawn out, and my kind of humor as well. Instant sub :D
Thank you! I know right? Sometimes these types of videos take forever to get to the point, I’m glad you think so and that you found this helpful. If you ever have questions about CSP or digital art in general, shoot me a comment on my videos and I’d be happy to help. Good luck on your transition--just be patient on learning all of the controls and start simple with a few brushes and opacity controls :)
Oh my I love your background! The background music also fits well
Thank you, it's cozy :)
This is the first of your videos that I've I have watched and I have already decided that I will likely watch them all. I don't even draw! Lol. You edited this so well and it is very humourous! I just noticed the calming music in the background.
Jocelyn!! Thank you hahaha I’m still improving A LOT with every new video, so I really appreciate that you still found it interesting. Calming is definitely one of the vibes I aim in my channel
Thank you for explaining this thoroughly!
good work king, love you
BROTHER, YOU ARE THE BEST!!! You oooh really helped me!! THANK YOU VERY MUCH!
I've switched to using Affinity Photo with Clip Studio paint and that has been an amazing combination! No more subscription and all of the tools I need. Thanks for the awesome video!
Amazing! I’m happy for you :) t’s always a great feeling to find the right workflow for yourself--and without hitting the wallet lol
Really helpful and decisive for me Keep on you're great.
Thank so much! Glad you think so
Great content. Feels like you're just talking to me in the couch. I'm convinced and I'm getting CSP now. . . before the sale ends today.
Thank you! Hahaha on the couch, that’s hilarious. I hope you managed to snag CSP’s sale, but fear not, they have crazy sales all the time so I guarantee you won’t have to wait a year to meet it again. Thank you for watching
I have never used any digital art software. I've always used old school art supplies. But I'm working on a massive graphic novel and I think digital coloring is the way to go. So I've been doing research in to what hardware and software I need to buy.... I've got a really good job so money isn't the issue. Just easy of use and quality.
This is the first video of yours that I've seen and you immediately got a subscriber
👍👍👍👍
You're beautiful and you speak clearly with a great voice.
Hi Irrel! How is your graphic novel going? I’m just seeing this old comment! If it’s going to be a big graphic novel, I do recommend going digital and upgrading to Clip Studio Paint EX so you can access multiple-page comic-making features. I know the program can be a little complicated at first but just take it slow and really learn the features, I genuinely recommend it for comic-making. Thank you so much for watching ❤️
Well done on your first video!
Nikita K thank you! 🤗
Awesome video ,very funny ,thanks for your in put!
Thank you
thank you and all the best to you! 😊
Layer color toggle is a great option to have... you change the default color on the button btw (I have mine set to a pinkish red), can also recolor on the fly, really useful for working with multiple layers at the same that you need to distinguish ❤️ clip studio
Layer color toggle?! I'm going to have to check that out! Thank you for the tip ;)
I figured it out, by the way. AMAZING
JGV Illustrations oh! I didn’t see the first response, glad you found it 👍
I've been using CSP for 5 years and didn't know about changing like width! Thank you!
What! Amazing!
This is first video of yours that i have seen and im glad i found your channel ^v^
Hey really?! Thanks so much for watching 💗 Let me know if there’s anything you’d like me to ever cover art-wise 🤔
Thankyou for this; you helped me decide.
Yay!
Thank you, it works perfect!
you deserve more subs!!! I loved this video as someone looking into clip studio. also oh my goodness, I did not know photoshop didnt have stabilisation! I've been working in medibang and even that has a similar function! crazy. well bye photoshop lol
Thank you, I appreciate that! Photoshop does have stabilization, I added a note on the description---it's been a recent addition but it's not as good as Clip Studio Paint's and regardless CSP is superior for more reasons on top of that if you are an illustrator and would like a sofware for digital painting and drawing.
thanks, it actually let me through so i could download it.
5:51 You should have started with this, like, DAMN, you have no idea how many drawings I wish I could have changed with that feature. Now I'm definitely going to try it out. Thank you
Lololl!! That's awesome
Photoshop does have this feature.
As much as I enjoyed her nicely presented video and lovely artwork, it's obvious that she was not familiar with Photoshop's many amazing tools and features, so she did miss completely, that there is a simple way to make lines thinner or thicker.
Clip Studio Paint IS a great price and I'm not knocking it, but many of the things that she states Photoshop can't do, are simply because she is not familiar enough with it.
Photoshop have stabilization by default . They introduced this feature when they swapped to the subscription model i think . It's less advanced than the one you find in clip studio paint but it's there . There is also lazy mezumi available that give you even more option than clip studio . But other than that i agree with you . Photoshop it's not designed for digital painting . It's mainly designed for photo-editing / manipulation but it's so powerful that can do pretty much everything . They also added the wet-brush tool that will help you to simulate oils and watercolors they added also some natural media brushes that work great . I use mainly Corel Painter as my main painting software and i love it but if needed i switch to photoshop for some editing and to use some filter . I used clip studio a lot when i tried to do some comics and i still use it often and it's great . The thing i love the most is that it's very stable and light weight and it have a lot of features specific for illustrator and comic artists . the only thing i don't like a lot with clip studio is that the standard brushes are not great and it lack liquify but other than that for illustration is better than photoshop from different point of view . Great video btw ! You should try krita too . I think you will love it and it's totally free . Keep up the good work😎
Yes! They did introduce it when they launched the subscription service and it’s not as good as CSP’s. I mentioned Lazy Nezumi in my video because it’s a popular add-on. That’s funny that you switch softwares depending on what you need to do and I think that’s the smartest way to go for sure. That was the point of my video--to dispel the idea that Photoshop is the one-all program for art, there are so many better options for specific art things you need to do and I hope artists consider CSP as an option if they haven’t already.
I like Krita! It’s awesome that it’s free--I haven’t explored it too much so I’m not really familiar with all of its features but I like it. I agree with you too--CSP is lightweight and stable, I should’ve mentioned that in the video darn it! I think CSP has crashed on me maybe 2 times in the years I’ve used it and it doesn’t slow down my computer. What an excellent point. Thank you for sharing :)
Nice video! I use Krita and probably will never switch but I love the way you say your opinion!
Krita is great! Thank you :)
When you dive deep inside, there are a lot of features that makes an easy choice for illustrators.
I've been using it for a few years now and I'm STILL learning cool things about it. I totally agree 👍
Great video! You have me sold
Lol! I’m not aware of the audio being off but thanks for watching!

the vector tools in cp suck though , I draw my roughs in blender these days
@@alexmehler6765 w/ the grease pencil? I've been considering Blender as another option :-)
@@jenninexus yes the grease pencil ... its good for scribbles and roughs because it has an infinite canvas sort of and all your drawings can be sculpted , so you get very dynamic poses pretty fast and easy
Very helpful, i've been working with a really old photoshop version because i refuse to pay for a subscription, and i've been wanting to upgrade to something else
Thank you so very much for your viddeo and the info on Clip Studio! Now I have to think. I currently use Krita and Procreate.
No problem!! I love Procreate, let me know if you every have questions about Clip Studio, I'd be happy to help
@@JGVIllustrations You convinced me to download it :) , you do such great work, I am eager to try clip studio. I am especially excited about the 3d poses to use as a reference for compositions. You have a wonderful channel ! If you have time in the future, perhaps we can do a collab via skype or something like that.
Thanks so much! I’ve used the 3D posing a few times but I’d like to learn more about it because it IS very neat. Good luck! A collab? I’d love that! I’m swamped working on my comic preparing for the relaunch but I’ll reach out to you when my time opens up :)

Great video. Affinity Photo and Designer is a good Photoshop alternative for photos and design stuff. Affinity and Clip Paint also have way better iPad apps than Adobe. For such a large company they shouldn't be as far behind as they are. That integration between iPad and my desktop is one of the many reasons I stopped using Adobe.
I’ve never heard of Affinity (but then again I don’t really do photography work), is it as inexpensive as Clip Studio? I know that ipad-desktop integration with Clip Studio is pretty seamless (although obviously it’s going to be a bit more limited than the full desktop version), but the required subscription kills me. I use Procreate instead for the iPad and I love it. And that’s SO TRUE--Adobe’s apps are really subpar compared to other similar apps, considering it’s such a big company and their products are industry-leading. I’ve always wondered why that is
@@JGVIllustrations The desktop version is $50 and the iPad version is $20. Affinity Designer is for raster and vector art. They too will have great discounts and drop the price 50-60%. I like that a lot of these programs are competing with Adobe. It makes Adobe better in the long run to have competition and it's better for my wallet.
hanks lot Sir.. You helping us..
Thank you for the video! It seems to me that ill swith to Clip Studio. I also always thought that Ps was designed to edit photos and only after it became an artist oriented application, but not so much. I usually use Sketchbook Pro but it also not as good because of the small amount of functions there.
Totally! They have sales every few months so definitely jump when it’s half off. I give tips on how to work with Clip Studio in my digital art vlogs too so once you buy it you’re welcome to let me know what you’d like to learn more or if you have any questions!
I agree Clip Studio is a wonderful tool for artists which I have watched get better since I originally bought Manga 4. I am sure they will enhance the typography element in future releases and then photoshop will really need to watch out.
Hi Martin! I really REALLY hope so, because it's a definite bummer.
Thank you for creating this video! I want to know if I can edit traditional artwork in clip studio?
*Artwork done in color pencil and marker. *
Hi! Absolutely, you just need to make sure you get a good scan of that artwork--by “good” I mean, get it as high-resolution/large size as you can so you can really zoom in on Clip Studio Paint and erase or color over or blend, whatever you need to do.
thank you so much dude you're a god
U BEST!!!
Thank you very much for your helpful information! It is great that Adobe CreativeCloud gets competitors - it can affect the pricing in the future! If I can afford it, I'd probably buy both, Clip Studio for painting and Photoshop for designing. Right now, I am not willing to pay 600€ annually for Creative Cloud/Photoshop and animations if and when there are other options at a much lesser price. It depends on how successful you are financial. I am grateful for the Clip Paint possibility! I like Photoshop, anyway, and Illustrator. I do not have experience with Clip Paint - I found it today, but by now, I feel it fascinating!
I know right! I’d love to put some pressure on them to not be so harsh on independent artists. I agree, it does depend on how financially you stand. I know it’s expensive....$600 annually is A LOT. But I honestly don’t have an alternative software to recommend if you work strictly in graphic design/vector art. If you are a graphic designer, for the sake of your career, it might be best to stick to Adobe illustrator for now. If you don’t make a lot a vector art then YES, check out Clip Studio Paint and let me know if there is anything you’d like me to cover for you to learn.
Affinity Photo and Designer are half price at the moment and are the best competitors to Photoshop and Illustrator right now IMO. If nothing else, you can try them out free for 90 days to see if they work for you.
Can anyone tell me how to scan a traditional comic page in clip studio so I can color it without messing up the lineart? I learned the "load selection" by copying the blue channel method in PS but how is it done here in CSP?
Coloring it without messing up the lineart? I just turn the image’s layer property to Multiply so it can be transparent under color layers, hope that helps
Already have a CSP. Just a question: A lot of online courses are using Photoshop, there's rarely any courses for CSP.
The only one I've managed to find one in Paintable, which allows for all drawing software.
If I do take an online course that only uses Photoshop, any similar features in CSP I should be aware of?
Awesome! Yes, that is true, there aren't as many courses out there like there are for Photoshop, luckily CZcams is an excellent resource for getting know how to use CSP--- I have tutorials in my channel on making CSP art as well. As far similar features---their basic features are fairly similar: layers, brushes, image adjustments, yeah pretty similar enough. It's learning what makes CSP different from Photoshop that is more interesting! (they're line adjustment controls, database of art resources like textures and 3d models, comic-making features, etc...)
Great video! Im more of adobe illustrator user for digital art. Because I vector my art. But recently got into Clip studio paint, but have not done anything on it yet. Ive been watching a ton of videos because I'm in that learning curve. But i would like to draw something on it soon. I see that it also uses vector. So I'm I want to see how this can be compared to Ai. Also Bryan Allen is amazing! I have his brushes also and follow his work and videos. Do you draw in pixel or vector? Or what's your take on vector? I feel that i will love Clip Studio Paint, but I'm finding it difficult to get use to because there's so much 😅
That's so funny that you say that because I feel the SAME way about Adobe Illustrator. I can't tell you how many times I've tried learning how to use it and have not managed to make anything out of it, haha. Vector art is more technical, in my opinion, because you're more manipulating shapes and curves to get the right shapes--it's much more geometric and less "organic" than say straight drawing/painting, so that's probably why it's hard for me to ever make the transition to vector art. I've tried pixel art but I don't have the patience! Lmao. Honestly, it makes sense why grasping Clip Studio might feel slow for you, I would say start small and simple by just making a few drawings with the G-Pen tool and playing around with the stabilization attribute (inside the brush tool's settings). Once you got that down, move to coloring it with just one brush tool. I don't think Clip Studio is better with vector than Adobe, so I wouldn't trust a big switch if you're looking to replace it.
Thank you! This was helpful. Yeah, I was thinking the vector layers in CSP would be useful since I am using a brush. But I’m confused as to how they work and if I can export straight to print without modifications when I’m done and If it doesn’t get pixelated changing size. But you’re right at the most. Since I’m in the learning curve, I’ll start out small and work my way through everything.
I used to use AI, too, but if you want a similar vector app, other than Clip Studio you can use Affinity Designer as it's closer to AI and both CSP and AD have ipad app, too. I have both AD and CSP. I love both. I am still learning CSP, though
Very helpful
nice tips, thank you! :)
Kirschkunst thank you--no problem :) happy drawing 👍
Which better clip studio paint or Adobe illustrator? I've try to using clip studio paint but it confused me too complicated to use.
Hi Babi! Well it depends on what you’re trying to make. Do you want to be making graphic design art using vector art? If that is the case, you should probably stick to Adobe Illustrator as that is what is designed for. If you’re learning about Clip Studio Paint, let me know if there is anything you’d like me to cover for you to learn 👍
thank you bro thank you
I think the blueing the layer is draft mode makes a non printable blue layer that u r right serves as a draft layer so u can pencil or ink over it
It’s SO useful!! I think also just the fact that there’s a quick button for it, instead of having to do 3 steps of turning the entire layer a certain light blue--that speed and time-cutting feature is so underrated
Hello. Can you tell what advantage does Clip has over krita? I'm thinking of buying Paint Pro. Also, do you get free updates once you buy it ?
Krita is a really great free art software but it's very simple compared to Clip, so if you're looking to up your digital art game and would like to make comics, I definitely think you should buy it (at least the "pro" version, the cheaper). And yes! Free updates for life. Good luck!!
The Dec 10 2020 update gave us the ability to use PS brushes now! Just drag the PS brushes from your folders to the brush tab/sidebar and you're good :)
I know!!! I’m so excited to bring in my old Grutbrushes from Photoshop because I am 100% DONE with Photoshop, BYE
este canal va a crecer mucho, Tienes lo necesario (perdón por escribirlo en español, me da flojera traducirlo ne mi cabeza GuG)
Jajaja gracias! De veras me encanta compartir lo que he aprendido en hacer arte y los varios intereses que se mezclan en el proceso. Voy a terminar un trabajo en animación este mes, entonces pronto podré regresar a CZcams y postear mas regular. Muchas gracias por tu apoyo, y viva la flojera!
i love u so much bro, thanks very much
What is better about CSP than Krita or Gimp? Have you tried them? Thank you for a review!
I have tried Krita and it’s a lovely free art software. CSP is still far superior with it’s many features for drawing and its online database of resources (both mentioned in my video). Krita is pretty simple--it’s still great if you are just starting to use digital art and you’re on a tight budget. I also like Krita’s simple interface, but it simply doesn’t have anywhere near the features CSP has, and that’s okay :) Thank you so much for watching!
That's Trueee👍👍👍
I'm a Photoshop user and have been for many years and like a lot of people am on a monthly subscription. Recently I've got back into character design and I want to explore 3D modelling and realised I have CSP on my PC and have never used it! (it came free with a tablet I bought ages ago)
From what I've seen from videos on YT I can pretty much do everything I want to do in CSP except logo design and text work which I'll still use PS for but for everything else I'm gonna be using Clip Studio Paint from now on. I may even start using Affinity Designer for my logo stuff and do away with PS altogether as I rarely seem to use it now so I'm paying for service that I can do in other software I already have!
You just summarized what I think! That's awesome, thanks for sharing and for watching!
I'm so poor I never got into Photoshop. Just moved from Krita to Clip Studio Paint and really loving it. Although Krita is amazing for a free software.
aditya thakur yes Krita is awesome for being a free software! Glad you’ve moved to Clip Studio Paint, if you don’t have the EX version they’re having a sale right now through the weekend you might want to check out! www.clipstudio.net/en/ 👍
@@JGVIllustrations I just got the pro version from the same sale!!
aditya thakur perfect 👌
i just switched to CSP cause now they have a monthly subscription of $4.45 a month (which i can handle compared to adobe and their heavy software) + free three months for first time use! and i find it great is cause i can use CSP paying cheap and once a sale shows up and i have saved up i’ll be able to buy the actual thing
YAY congrats!! I hope you like it :) And honestly that game plan sounds pretty good--they drop sales pretty often.
You can distort text now, and you can put photoshop brushes directly into clip now (:
Clip Studio can now import photoshop brushes or so they say you can. I have not tried it yet but the latest version is supposed to be able to do it.
Same! I haven’t tried it yet and I have a whole brush pack from Grut Brushes to try to import. I’d like to see soon if they are able to be imported at CSP claims 🤔
I have Clip Studio but I use Paint tool Sai more lol because I just mainly draw and I like simple interfaces XD. But Clip studio is very powerful, especially if you need to draw backgrounds, the assets are amazing, the rulers are great.
Pretty much! Thanks you for sharing, I've always wanted to try Sai since so many Japanese manga/anime artists use it
as someone who uses photoshop, i think i'd actually like to use them both in conjuction, however, if i just get pro for now, do you still pay like $200 for EX? or is that price just as a stand alone product if you buy EX straight up?
Hi! Yes, the $200 is just the standalone price so if you get the pro and then upgrade, you don't actually need to pay an entire new price, you just pay the difference. My reply is so DAMN LATE so I'm sure you already know that but thanks for reaching out regardless. If you got CSP I hope you're enjoying it :)
Can you custom make brushes to do maps?
Maps for 3D art? No idea!
Is CSP way better than Krita ? Thx for the vid :-D
Yes it is! Krita is just a VERY simple digital art software, that’s why it;s free. It’s great if you’re a casual digital artist that doesn’t want to pay for a software, really. CSP is far superior for the tons of features that it offers, like the ones I cover in the video.
Would you do a revisit to this topic? CSP has had some nice changes since you made this video (e.g. it now has liquify and supports Photoshop brushes)
I’ve considered it BUT CSP just launched a subscription model, which really sucks--it was the entire reason why I moved away from Photoshop and learned how to use CSP. So, I don’t know. At this point, CSP has removed a big reason it was favorable over Photoshop. Don’t get me wrong, CSP still has some nicer illustration features over PHotoshop but I feel too salty with their stupid subscription model right now to want to make another video favoring them lmao
@@JGVIllustrations What is the big fuss over the new subscription plan? The desktop software is still a one time purchase. Stability/bug fix updates are still FREE.
The $10 a year Update Pass just means you get the updates when new features come out. Everyone can afford that. And I feel 90% confident that CSP users aren't just sitting around yearning for new CSP features
So much yes! Subscription for a software is scummy imo. It's a tool, should be a product, not a service. I did get Clip Studio with my tablet and really liked it and also use Krita which has some more PS like features and it's free ^^
Yes! I completely agree, that's a great way of putting it. I haven't used CSP on a tablet, I use Procreate but I'm glad you like it! I always recommend Krita for anyone starting out with digital art, it's free and pretty easy to understand. Once they want to level up with more cool features I recommend CSP
What do you think about free software? I used Gimp for a while and more recently started using Krita. Are you familiar with any of those?
Yes! I’ve used Krita before and it’s pretty useful. The interface is a bit confusing and counter-intuitive though and it doesn’t have many sophisticated features, BUT if you don’t use any complicated digital art techniques (like certain brushwork, effects, or post image editing, etc...) I think it does the job well for free :) I haven’t used Gimp yet.
Let's see where it goes. Maybe I'll switch to Clip Studio Paint, if art becomes more than a hobby for me. Very insightful video btw.
I wish clip studio had more of the adobe illustrator features like align option.
I agree!
Wow what about drawing with that white bg. ahhhh my eyeeeeees!
😂😂😂
i really start trying drawing digital art my first time this week and i download ((clip studio paint)) really so so nice now i am trying to learn more about this software is easy to learn in this softwer comfortable for useing to beginners and Professional artist😇👍🏻🖊🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟💯💯💯
Amazing! Sorry for replying this late, how have you been doing with your art and Clip Studio Paint? Is there anything you’d like me to cover in a video?
@@JGVIllustrations it's very great software i really like it now i am practise with it in this month 👍🏻😇 i feel comfortable with the softwere .. only one thing i didn't know .. if there any brushes can make lighte in the painting ?🙏🏻 or can you make a video about how we can make light in the paintng like lazer lighte or sun light or moon lighte tell as the easiest ways if you can🙏🏻✨😇
Awesome program
where is the macro keyboard you were talking about.
Macro keyboard? I’m not sure what you mean! Can you point me to the time stamp that I mentioned it?
i'm just curious to know what happens to the photoshop in your computer when the subscription expires and you stop paying adobe? does it disappear or can you not use it anymore?
I can tell you right now what happens 😂 I’ve always had a bootleg Photoshop, either CS3 or now CS6, but I accidentally downloaded a trial version of another adobe product to try....so now, through some nasty Adobe spyware or whatever, they have disabled my bootleg Photoshop. And you’re wondering what does “disable” mean and look like right? Well it’s about 30 days of a pop-up window that you can’t exit out of (unless you Ctr +alt+del it but it comes back 15 minutes later) so I have just gotten in the habit of moving the window down to the very bottom of the screen. But it’s been 30 days now so it has disabled the my bootleg program, it won’t fully open and I still get that stupid pop-up every day. I now exclusively use Clip Studio Paint, especially since they recently updated their text editing capability to be less crappy, so I don’t use Photoshop at all but I still get the stupid pop-up. I have more techie friends who could probably help me disable the pop-up window or better yet uninstall all of Adobe because I’m 100% over Adobe, so I will reach out to them eventually. But since you’re asking--this is my experience with a bootleg Adobe product being recognized by Adobe. If your question is more specifically what ‘happens when your subscription expires,’ I’m sure it’s the same annoying tactics where it, obviously, won’t allow you to use the program, and gives you a stupid pop up window to remind you that your ridiculously expensive subscription has expired for infinitum.
Do I sound salty? Yes. Don’t be fooled to think that you need to pay for Photoshop if you’re an illustrator. If you think you do, please reach out to me and I would be happy to guide you to how to use Clip Studio Paint. It has become almost a personal moral mission for me. Artists don’t deserve this corporate garbage of what Adobe makes you go through to use even basic digital art tools that one can access for free (like Krita) but even Clip Studio Paint is reasonably priced for the incredible features it offers.
@@JGVIllustrations thank you for the very detailed and heartfelt explanation...i can feel the frustration in your reply which i only felt slightly in your vid...but it really is cringy how adobes subscription works...so i think i'll probably stick with krita since i also still can't afford csp right now...
I have Clip Studio Paints but I just wanted to make sure I made the right choice :>
Yes! You made the right choice, not just for your wallet but CSP really is a great digital art software. No regrets!! My next video will be a beginner’s tutorial, hopefully you’re subscribed to my channel with the bell button on so you’ll get notified when I post it!
now i am in a good mood
i've been using corel painter and tbh im looking to switch because i feel like corel painter makes you jump through hoops to get the desired result, i've watch vids on it and artist always say corel painter is hard to use.
What are some examples?
Yeah Corel painter is…okay. If you want to jump ship, just go with Clip Studio Paint.
My only gripe about CSP is needing subscription to use on mobile devices.
And I fear that the desktop version will soon follow suit.
I hear you and I am concerned as well that that will be the future of the desktop version too.
you are so funny😂 as u explain, yeah video was so informative
Haha thank you!!
with photoshop you can leave the menu in one screen and just your canvas on the screen that you draw. can we do this with csp?
Yes :)
Actually, I re-read your comment and I don’t believe you can “pull” your active canvas out of the main program window into a separate monitor/screen. But you can divide the active window in multiple canvases and also keep certain menus on top/disconnected from side menus. I thought you were referring to just the capability to move the menu boxes around.
@@JGVIllustrations ic thanks for your input. I'm considering csp but need as much feedback
I just tried it in both Photoshop and CSP
Is the CSP Brush system as powerful as Photoshop Brush SYsteme?
I think so! The fact that CSP had stabilization features waaay before Photoshop says a lot
@@JGVIllustrations yup but still photoshop has one of the best Brush sys in the whole Digital drawing Industry
@@JGVIllustrations the pros that photoshop has, and CSP don't, is the possibility to work with is Big files ( 1 ~ 2 GB files ) with ease without crash or lag,
I bought CSP on a black friday sale for $25 bucks, I later upgraded to the EX for $80. I've been using CSP for over a year now. Also CSP has brush packs on their website graphixly.com
That’s a great deal! I’ve been using for about 3 or 4 years and I’m so happy with it-I really want artists to reconsider using photoshop if they can’t afford it and not feel like they have to settle for something less. 👍
How come you’ve not updated CSP to the new UI?
I always wait a few months before committing to a new big update! I like reading new reviews and making sure they’ve dealt with any bugs that occurred with it. I’ve installed i recently and haven’t had issues tho, thank goodness! Are you liking it? I feel like they tried to clean up the interface to match Photoshop a bit better.
i knew about other softwares. It's the UI and the workspace I had trouble with. It's not until I could use Procreate with apple pencil that I finally was able to get rid of Photoshop. Now I'm free from Adobe product subscription even though I still have Photoshop CS6 to do texturing for my 3D mesh works.
I'm sure Procreate helped a lot of artists break their reliance on Photoshop. I love Procreate. So is CSP on the iPad better than Procreate?
I too still have CS6 too for any random adjustments I need to make that CSP can't. That's funny that you mention that, I'm glad I'm not the only one still using an old version. Especially if you're using it for 3D art.
JGV Illustrations both Procreate and CSP are good. Nothing is better than the other. I make clip art in procreate and Procreate doesn’t have toolbar filling my ipad screen so i can concentrate. I actually don’t make comic often but when I do, it’s a simple one, short and funny (funny events that have happened in my family). For the 3D mesh work, I use photoshop to texture the UV-map. I’ve been working on my ipad a lot since 2018 and haven’t touched Photoshop and if I do, I use it to texture, which I can do in CS6 and in Affinity Photo. For vector work I use AI CS6 and Affinity Designer. I stopped my adobe CC sub in 2018 and I don’t regret it.
JGV Illustrations PS: it’s been only 3 days that I’m learning CSP. I’m still very confused and it’s still difficult for me to grasp. But the nice UI of it intrigues me (hard to believe that I am able to put my effort to learn only because the UI looks nice).
Right no I'm in a weird spot, I've been drawing digitally as a hobby for over a year using exclusively photoshop, I think I've gained a lot of practice and can get very smooth lines using the smoothing feature, the thing is I want to start getting into animation and photoshop is very cluncky for that, I rece tly downloaded clip studio paint and I felt right at home with the interface but I can't get behind the lines. The stabilizing option just doesn't feel right to me no matter how high ot low I set it I can0t control my lines and fail to even trace over my own photoshop drawings.
Interesting! Firstly I’m glad you are liking CSP :) As for the line stabilization, I wonder if it might have something to do with your tablet settings or even the brush settings you’re using.
bought CSP pro, but still not migrating from SAI lmao I'm watching this video, hoping one day I'll find the strength to leave my comfort zones.
I hear ya! It can take a lot of energy and time to move softwares. Take your time and start with the easy stuff, like how to use one or two brushes on one layer. I wish you the best :)
Thanks for an excellent breakdown. Because of what you said about its print capabilities, I have decided not to get it because I am creating a children’s book.
Glad it was helpful!
There's one feature that I really miss in CSP - stroke orientation with pen tilt.
I’m pretty sure they added that, but it’s in the brush settings so you’d have to add it for every brush you want to use it in, I believe.
@@ayaneagano6059 Hmm... I need to check it.
Yes~! It’s in the brush settings and then inside the settings of the actual feature being looked into so you do have to look for it but I’ve seen the option offered for features like stabilization, opacity, etc…
merci beaucoup a toi :))
I use CSP pro as my main drawing software on my PC.
Isn’t it great?! I never thought I’d be able to comfortably draw digitally as I felt that I could only do it with a pencil and then color everything digitally, but CSP definitely changed my attitude on that. Glad you like it for drawing!
@@JGVIllustrations I tried to find PS CS6 windows full version but they can be expensive on Ebay. I also like Affinity photo and sketchbook pro on Windows. With ipad pro I like Procreate and infinite painter.
I was going to trial it but now they have a weirdly complicated subscription model
Photoshop does and now it looks like CSP is jumping unto that stupid business model next year too :/
Actually just a quick correction there 3 versions of csp the first and cheapest is the debut version which you did not mention but it has less features overall. Then it's just like you said the pro and the ex versions.
I've never heard of the debut version, interesting!
you are amazing
Hey! Thank you 😳
I adore CSP, my issue with Adobe PS is that I feel it actually has less things then it did PRE subscription service. If I could manipulate text like I can with PS I would've dropped it a LONG time ago.
SAME! I really REALLY wish we could manipulate text on CSP. That’s the one reason I still have an old Photoshop program around. Hopefully they will get on that someday 👍
Everybody fell in love with Clip Studio Paint. I got onboard immediately when it went from Manga Studio 4, to version 5. Version 5 was a whole different ballgame. The price was cut in half, then cut in half again. In terms of drawing, it was amazing. So we all fell in love it. I bought copies for the whole family. LOL For real. But I've been a Photoshop user for decades and I'm still a Photoshop user. CSP being cheaper is a great thing, as long as it can get the job done. If your work fits within the scope of what CSP can do, then you win big time. For me though, Drawing or painting is only a part of what I do so Clip Studio has never actually replaced Photoshop. It just replaces a part of what I sometimes did in Photoshop. Drawing and painting. But Photoshop still has a TON of features and functions that CSP doesn't have. Another thing about Photoshop is that it's still a lot faster than CSP.
By the time CSP for iOS came out, the good folks behind this great software began to tip their hand. They began to show us why they made it so cheap. The plan must have been to get as many people on board as possible, then finally move to a subscription model. First, they did it with the iOS version. Now, the desktop version also has a subscription option. It's exactly how other companies approached subscriptions. First, as an option then eventually, they remove the perpetual license option completely. CSP will of course take the same route eventually. For that probably means that I will stick with what I have because as much as I love it, it's not critical enough to my workflow for me to need to keep up with all of the new updates. Which frankly have been in the direction of animation anyway, rather than improving the 2d drawing aspects of the software or doing things like adding more Photoshop like functionality.
So interesting! Ugh I really hope they don’t fully go into a subscription...I don’t find it to be slower than Photoshop to be honest and I don’t agree that Photoshop has a “a TON of features” more than CSP, that is simply not true. Regardless, I made this video in the hopes of showing artists out there that Photoshop is not necessarily the default art program they have to go to, there are alternatives, especially if they are specifically illustrators--just another perspective. Yes, the 2D animation is definitely getting more and more developed, but I see them improving the drawing and comic-making features--like how they just released more text editing capabilities (so long overdue but wtv).
Gosh I hope they don’t go full-subscription but a cynic might agree with you 😭 Thanks so much for sharing your thoughts.
@@JGVIllustrations You do know that Celcys has since created a subscription version alongside their regular version, right? I wasn't being cynical. I was being logical.
Im looking into Clip Studio Paint, and I also hate subscription based software. So why is the desktop version a one-time purchase and does the iPad version also have that aweful subscription model. I think I stick with Paintstorm studio.
Hi Gregor, I’m not sure why the ipad version is subscription-based. I love that the desktop version is just a one-time purchase and I really hope that doesn’t change.
