Hello, my dears. In this opportunity, I will show you how you can quickly adorn objects using patterns and the [Transform] tool in CLIP STUDIO PAINT.

Shoe

To begin, we need the line art of an object to decorate. I will use a shoe as an example.

Select the area of the object that will contain the pattern with the [Area Selection] tool. (Please ignore the colors of the tools)

(From now on, I will use a colored background to better appreciate the rest of the process.)

 

Without deselecting, create a new layer and fill the selection with white. Place this base layer below the line art. It should look like this:

(1): Line art layer.

(2): Base layer. (white)

Create a selection that covers an area larger than the base layer with the [Marquee]➜[Rectangular Marquee] tool.

Select a pattern of your preference and drag it into the selection. You can download any of these from ASSETS:

This is how it should look.

Place the pattern layer above the base layer.

 

(1): Line art layer.

(2): Base layer. (white)

(3): Pattern layer.

Go to [Edit]➜[Transform]➜[Free Transform] or select the [Free Transform] icon.

Adjust the pattern following the direction of the object.

Press the Enter key and, in the layer menu, select [Clip to Layer Below].

At this point, with the [Object] tool, you can select and adjust the pattern once again.

I left it at this size:

I suggest you use an [Eraser] tool to erase areas of the pattern close to the line art to give it a less digital finish. I use this tool:

Done! We have finished applying the pattern.

Final result with additional details:

Smartphone

This is the same process in sequence.
