Tips of the Month
Thank you for your posts!
Out of the Tips posted between Jan 4–31, 2021, the writers of the following will be rewarded a cash prize or GOLD!
This month's themes were "Your favorite brush ASSETS," "Animation Using Keyframes," and "Cyberpunk." In the "Your favorite brush ASSETS" section, we saw that not only can you use brushes as they are, but you can also highly customize them to suit your style. It was impressive to see how the same brush can be used in different ways by different people. The Animation using keyframes section, included many animation techniques that can be created without specialized knowledge, such as how to add slight movements and background effects to illustrations. The Cyberpunk section taught us how to use accessories, colors, and finishing techniques to express a unique world view. Submissions for the next Tips of the Month have already started! We’re looking forward to your entries!
