Introduction

Clip Studio Paint has its very own Liquify Tool and today, I’m gonna teach you how to use it and give some creative examples along the way. So stay tuned, everyone! If you prefer watching this tutorial on video, click it down below.

Preparation

Make sure that your Clip Studio Paint is updated to version 1.11.6 or higher. If you're done with that, you can now select a layer to liquify. In my case, I'll be selecting the colorful sphere layer right here.

Access the Liquify Tool

From the toolbox, select the Blend sub tool or press "J" to access the Liquify tab..

In the Liquify Tool Property, you can select a mode between Push, Expand, Pinch, and Twirl. You can also change the size of the brush, the strength, and how hard you want to liquify.

Liquify Modes

By using Push, you can move the pixels in a certain direction.

Expand to make things bigger.

Pinch to shrink stuff.

Twirrrrrrrrrrl.

3 Creative Ways

Adding horns, and making things longer and bigger.

Making organic shapes for background and environment.

 

Making a monster or a cow with glowing red eyes...

Conclusion

The Liquify Tool is mostly known for fixing minor mistakes in your art but it can also help in creating new shapes and ideas.

 

I hope that you guys learned something today and good luck on your art journey! I would love to hear from you guys on how you will use the Liquify Tool with your own artwork.
