easy paint tool sai with mouse

[JesusDrewMySmile]

This was great! It helped me so much. I have one question, though :33

The water tool that you used to blend, is it just the water color tool or a customized tool? I love the way it blurred the colors, and was wondering. If it is customized, what did you use to make it? Thanks!!:))

[SuperRin19]

is it Japan from Hetalia?

nice coloring ;)

[monicalistened]

Bad english so I really can't understand it..but I think the lineart isn't hers..O_O''

"and the lineart isent mine! i dont own it."

[ChibiDancingDinosaur]

Did you use pen on the first step of the video?

[BlanxMisaCosplay]

Please, ALL we want to know WHAT song is playing!!

[hermione760]

@BlanxMisaCosplay It's right there, it's Singin' In The Rain

[JTHMShmee]

can someone tell me if there is a way to import pictures in SAI?

[Boradogih]

@JTHMShmee There is! You just right-click on the picture you want, and then choose "open with" and click SAI :D and if you import a sketch or something, all you have to do is to make sure you make a new layer to do the lineart ^_^ Hope this was somewhat useful!

[nickyreno]

LOL = i'm recording now ><! , appear offline will have more privacy ~ no one can disturb you while you painting / drawing . (You should buy a pen tablet seriously ~ don't waste your talent on the mouse) Trust me is a huge different between mouse and a pen tablet . (although is gonna cost you but well is worth it , btw i'm not salesmen LOL)

[heartbea1]

[okamilovers]

Thanx. How do you color with out messing up the lines? Someone please tell me!

[justcallmeMASTERKRIZ]

@okamilovers just put the colouring layer underneath the lineart layer so you can colour it freely without touching the lineart :P

[KougasGal101]

Thankyou this was good, and so long as your English is understandable it doesn't matter. I know people who are way worse with spelling than you (I know, I tutor sometimes XD)

That's also a freakish # of layers, but if it'll help me, then I'm fine with that.

[anime014guh]

"Hi im recording now" xD that's awesome. Good job! This has helped me :D

[vampireknights16]

ahh i use SAI and a mouse too ^.^ you use the same techniques i use as well as showed me some interesting ways to paint ^.^ glad to know i was doing some things right xD using the mouse is definitely hard D: , like when u actually want to draw ur line art its not easy D: i have to draw it by hand on paper then scan it and do what i can with the straight and curved lines :O. im getting sorta used to it now but before it was so stiff

[deadoralivehottie589]

Love the lineart, by the way, Japan is one sexy bishie |D

[XxzyourShiningAngel]

u make it look so hard

[MisterHermitCrab]

Thanks for this tutorial! So many "tutorials" are just watching them draw and they don't tell you the tools to use or give you hints on what colors to choose and such. :/

[KagamixXxYume]

Yo también unso el mouse :D

Una duda: ¿Dónde consigues los linearts? >w<

[Bleachie100]

How do you color without the color hiding the lines (like you did within the first like.. minute of this video)?

[heholi2]

how do you reapir the colour thats went out of the line....i really wanted to learn how to draw and colour in paint tool sai...

[Panecochan]

nyah~

That circle that shows me hoe large my pencil is at the moment its gone o.o

What to do now.

Somehow, my brush really looks not as it looked at the beginning..-.-

[TemariNara97]

It helped me so much! x3

Thank you!!!

My english isn´t good either but i try my best hehe :D

[ettosamaful]

[4EverS0ra]

Shame on me :l

[IamTOBIFIED]

[xinia103]

Why did i just dance Carameldansen at the first song??

[lolo78014]

Japan!:3



[dxcxx]

there is something strange when i try to color the background it does not color it self

[ShimmerSkyfolt123]

"hi im recoloring now"

XD

I love this tutorial. It really helped me. :)

[HoboAddiction]

damn i need a translator for this shit

[xKuroiBarrax]

Does anyone know the name of the first song? DD:

[kazumi1998]

thanks so much :)) by the way does anyone know how to make background tranparent or set opacity to 0 cuz im making characters for my visual art novel its really a problem because its taking too long Well i can draw but not much :)

[eyezack96]

i've tried this tutorial but...looks like i'm a suck..

[diaphonis]

It's my first time using this program but when I paint I delete the line, why?? T.T

[MichiyoChan007]

@diaphonis You probably didn't open a new layer (:

[arvinapikachu13]

My SAI is the different version of this

which version did you use in this? 

[animeferris]

what does the clipping group do exactly??

[Meichhi]

@animeferris It clips layers together, draw over one layer--make sure it's on top of the other layer--and it'll only go on the color over the layer under it.

... I think that's a good explanation?

[koino17]

heey, my water tool is weird D:

when i click on the color, it just goes all over the screen, it doesnt stays in its place (forgive my english, i cant explain it well, sorry -___-)

[lKibaInuzukal]

how i can make a background without paint over my draw? :C plz help

[PoPiPoHatsuneMiku]

@lKibaInuzukal Make a layer underneath all of them. It's helpful if you make the BG first and then color everything else (at least that's what I think lol).

[OtakuNezumi]

I have a question, how did you get the background color without coloring over the line art?

[EmmilyTM]

@OtakuNezumi You set the lineart layer to 'Multiply' :)

[bgendaaa]

@OtakuNezumi im not so sure but i think you have to create another layer(normal,not lineart) and make sure that layer is below your layer that you did line art on.If not drag that layer and put it below. Then when you draw the background on the layer at the bottom,it'll not be covering the lineart

[xwolfx16]

@OtakuNezumi

set the blend mode on any layer to multiply

[vickaliciousful]

@OtakuNezumi you just add a new layer and put that layer under the layer that contains the line art.

[chistal0077700]

@OtakuNezumi Layers.

[sixoclocksinner]

@OtakuNezumi layers :/

[Arxaiht]

@OtakuNezumi You have to put your background layer underneath your lineart layer.

[MsAyoOda]

@OtakuNezumi you place the layers under the lineart x) !

[snjorRefur948]

@MsAyoOda

i think i have a prob, when i place the layers under the lineart i can't color them T.T. do you have any solution to this?

[MsAyoOda]

@snjorRefur948 : If the line-art has a white background, you've got to make sure its on ''multiply''

To get the layer to be ''multiply'' youve got to go to ''mode''.

Its right ontop of opacity :D

~Hope i helped x)

[snjorRefur948]

@MsAyoOda

thanks a bunch! now i can start! X3

[monjosh123]

Layers!

[MsComicgirl]

@OtakuNezumi .put a bckround layer...or.decrease the density.... use the marker tool to become transparent...

[DarkLawlietSide]

@OtakuNezumi Exactly what I would like to know >.< Maybe they have special powers ¬_¬

[ADangerousMindIsMine]

@OtakuNezumi It's another layer.

[therockworld1]

@OtakuNezumi

The magic of paint tool sai is you either use multply or you put the lineart you did in paint tool sai on top of your other layers or you do your lineart in some other program and you save it as a Png then you do you coloring under the lineart ;]

[littlestpshop00]

@OtakuNezumi First make the lineart On multiply then make the layer under it and color

[snaplope]

@OtakuNezumi Layers. |3

[doraemintify]

@OtakuNezumi She used one layer for the line art and another one for the background color. The line art has to be on top and you could choose the Multiply mode.

[IconorZ]

@OtakuNezumi The lineart is probably on a second layer that is set over the color layer.

[justcallmeMASTERKRIZ]

@OtakuNezumi if no one has replied to you yet, you should put the background layer underneath the lineart layer so you can colour it freely without touching the lineart :D

[isabellim1]

@OtakuNezumi Make sure your line art layer is at the top of everything. Unless you want to colour something on top of the line art :D

[supercheesehero]

@OtakuNezumi Its on a layer below the lineart.

[aienick]

@OtakuNezumi layer

[DarkAngelx9999]

@OtakuNezumi you make a new layer and then put that new layer under the lineart layer ^^

[caramelsisyphus]

@OtakuNezumi each layer you do it as multiply so it wont cover lineart

[FanaticTeen]

@OtakuNezumi set it to multiply

[AllTheLittleChildren]

@OtakuNezumi new layer under the lineart

[randomanimeotaku]

@OtakuNezumi You use layers. S/he drew the lineart in a different layer. Made another layer, and coloured. Make sure the lineart's layer is on top of the background layer.

[Mizuthefox]

but when i used a layer it wouldnt show what i put on top of it

[Eclipsa00]

Crap I was so sure that I was tablet =.=

[dangoaddict]

the first song is?

[ColorMeAnna]

You don't know how much I adore this tutorial.

It's so detailed yet so comprehendable for beginners like me. [:

Great job! I love how Japan turned out. [:

[akirax17]

I'm a noob at Paint tool SAI and I wanted to know what settings did u use in your's in this video. Whenever I color my drawings, it will go through the lines of my drawing. I hope you can reply me ASAP! =D Thanks!

[mimikawaii7386]

@akirax17 Use multiply layer mode

[xoxoxoxAubyxoxoxox]

I love it how like, 5 times during the video a message came up saying ***** has signed in LOL!

[ShellyTakely]

[applejelly0198]

[Zannyface]

[Gii3Soukiuty]

[randompieceofcracker]

@AkwardMomentsXD37 THANK YOU! I was wondering the whole time where I've seen him, and I never got all the way to Japan, I just thought it was Hetalia... XD

[couragelink999]

[Silushy]

Hehe, great.I always draw with a mouse. :3

[sethlovesstars]

@theapocalypticwaffle

[sandycookie1207]

how do you color it so it doesnt affect the lineart? :O

I've had this problem for ages and I'm getting desperate... when i try coloring it just colors over the lines, I know its something about the magic wand or something... and I'm too stupid to figure this out on my own! please help me! T^T

[hypernojutsu]

@sandycookie1207 you go into layer (up where file and all that is) and you go down to luminence to transparancy and if you make a new layer and drag it under the lineart layer youll be able to color it without messing up the lineart

[sandycookie1207]

@hypernojutsu

thank you :')

[AlexJensen]

Do you use a mouse like the one woth the cord, or the mouse pad like one on the laptop?

[sethlovesstars]

@AlexJensen

one on a cord but once or twice with the labtop one

[TheRedTessy]

oh my. you are the most awsome person ever.

i wish i could color like you D;

[sethlovesstars]

@TheRedTessy

haha ive gettten better! :D

[kiacute6]

[sethlovesstars]

@kiacute6

[carlyxjack]

[sethlovesstars]

@carlyxjack

[DarrenFlood1995]

[silentihaxorz]

[octobermourning]

Um...maybe I'm doing something wrong but, Every time I try to color over the picture, it colors over the lines as well. I tried putting it on multiply for the first two layers, but when I made the folders and tried coloring in the skin, it was coloring over the entire lineart again. I have no idea what to do so I'm hoping you could help.

[chibijrock]

@octobermourning

try putting the colour layer underneath the lineart layer :3

[idkpsc]

[NeajAihposCosplayer]

This is very good, but I have a problem! D: It won't let me draw over my line art without it being solid color, and I'm still a noob to SAI. Can you help me? D:

[Arxaiht]

@NeajAihposCosplayer Try put the layer on Lumanice to transperancy? You can find that on the 'layer' tab.

[NeajAihposCosplayer]

@Arxaiht It worked! xD Thank you very much!

[HaruhiOHSHC]

I've got to know the name of the first song. D:

btw; thanks alot for the coloring tips--it really helped ^^

[DuckiezFan]

i love your coloring style! :]

[fudayk]

You color amazingly. ): I love it. My style on SAI is really different, though. But I will try hard to learn from these videos! Thank you for posting.
