[Tutorial] Hair. Skin. Eyes.

[DstyleWayne]

why do the colors cover my drawing ? T.T

[xxxRushi]

@DstyleWayne You need to put your colors on the below your line layer.

[lolbananaz]

Is the Sai Paint Tool free?

[dapithapon]

darn, even quite fast for me to pause the video to read the text

[HimiSushi]

VIOLA ! 

[TrevorBeltmont]

booboos? XD

[tesmo2]

[AkemiUmeki]

[truewarriorsheart]

[alainawithana]

haha! I love they way you teach! I love how funny and fun you make it! :D

[MrKSrea]

PLEASE I NEED HELP HOW CAN I CHANGE LANGAUGE?!

[RavenakanoraD]

Quick question: what system (or type) of "paint" do you use?

[xxxRushi]

@RavenakanoraD Japanese program used Paint Tool Sai but you can get it in english like I did too. :3

[RavenakanoraD]

@xxxRushi Thanks that was veryhelpful! :D

[cindyrox12345]

i dont seem 2 have da group cliping tool, instead it says layer clip

[xxxRushi]

@cindyrox12345 That works just fine. :3

[MrTrunkas]

gj!

[Allencullen99]

why is it whenever i color my art , the color covers my lines ?

[JustSomeDoodles]

@Allencullen99 You need to make sure that you put any new layers underneath the line art. You can do that by simply dragging the layers underneath the one you've drawn the lines on :)

[MsNaruHinaFan]

@Allencullen99 you should multiply it. =v=

[yanny0801]

epic..nuff said

[illuim]

this was really good!

it's easy to follow and funny aswell ^^

you're very talented, thank you for doing this, it helped a lot (:

[rain2537]

Thank you, it really hepls me a lot =D

[KiLLeRsGunnZz]

0:18 How do you do this? Everytime I try it, I paint over the Lineart :(

[LooneyChick09]

@KiLLeRsGunnZz Put your coloring layers under your lineart layer?

[blueraineee]

i dont seem to have the pencil tool..

[Allthingzvamp]

This makes me want to get up and draw! ...and then remember that I can't -_-

[Mightythunder0987]

Awesome ...

[narutox193]

HOW DO YOU FIND THE BLUR TOOL? (sorry for caps)

[xxxRushi]

@narutox193 Uh...There should be a small scroll bar so you can use that and find the blur tool by the bottom. I think! ;w;

[narutox193]

@xxxRushi thanks! i found it :D btw can you tell me waht tool you use for line art? nice tutorial btw!

[xxxRushi]

@narutox193 I use the pen tool though recently, I've been using the brush tool!

[narutox193]

@xxxRushi Thank you very much!!! 

[Mizzy5897]

What does that clipping mean? And for what do you need it?

[Bloodystory05]

I kinda understand now..buuuuttt...how do you master a tablet the easiest way TT_TT?

[xxxRushi]

@Bloodystory05 Draw with it everyday! Just practice practice practice and you'll get the hang of it. ;w;b

[Bloodystory05]

@xxxRushi :) Thanks ^^ I'll keep practicing until I'm as good as you :)

[espio329]

@Bloodystory05 i feel your pain, i have a tablet and right now im practicing by drawing over some of my works with my tablet =___=

[Bloodystory05]

@espio329 INSERT LATE REPLY HERE.

Agreed D: Glad we feel the same pain..

[espio329]

@Bloodystory05 lol im still getting the hang of my tablet...

[TheLightBlueism]

ah this is so hard to learn T_T well il keep trying! O^O

[sherza1234]

[xxxRushi]

@sherza1234 Scott Peeples - Chrono Cross Another Inspiration OC ReMix

[vocoloid001]

[xxxRushi]

@vocoloid001 Glad to be of help! owob

[vocoloid001]

@xxxRushi MUST HUG CHU :'DDD

[swswangel]

mm good but i cant do it donno why am good painter but am not in coloring things

[xxxRushi]

@swswangel Just takes some patience and a lot of practice. Keep at it and believe in yourself owob

[LadyStorhimeDate]

So u have to have the skin tone base and the shadow in different layer's right , also how do u get rid of the black lines without messing up your picture?

[xxxRushi]

@LadyStorhimeDate What do you mean by getting rid of the black lines? I keep my lineart on a separate layer above all the "color" layers if that's what you're asking about. ;w;...

[LadyStorhimeDate]

@xxxRushi Oh ok , yea i just got this program so im still trying get the hang of it lol.

[ChocolateXCookiies]

Hmm , what's the clipping group for ? Do you have any specific reason why you need to use it ? :/

[xxxRushi]

@ChocolateXCookiies You use it to so that it's easier to color within the lines/base. Lol.

[ChocolateXCookiies]

@xxxRushi Okayy thanks , still learning a lot ! :D

[Maggi1108]

Why do you "clipp" your layer?

(Sorry for my bad english)

[xxxRushi]

@Maggi1108 You clip the layer so you don't color out of the base. Helps to keep your coloring neat and "within the lines"

[copymywaste]

awesome duh! and i luv Rushi *-* xD

[HeatblastGirl227]

This is seriously too hard.. I want a tablet. >.>

[Ryuuzora94]

It's fast, but it's real good :)

[XIyaX1]

He looks like kazuma from shakugan no shana :-D

[mahmoodnooni23]

how do you draw like that....i can't draw like that with a mouse T_T mine doesn't look right T_T

[xxxRushi]

@mahmoodnooni23 I use a tablet. A lot nicer than drawing with a mouse. So with a tablet, it's like...using pen on paper! :3 Very fun.

[TheSarasarina]

i don't find clipping group.how can i take it?

[xxxRushi]

@TheSarasarina Should be in under the layers property. Says "clipping group" or "clipping layer" on it.

[TheSarasarina]

@xxxRushi i find only "opacity lock" "layer clip" and "selection source"

but there isn't clipping group

[xxxRushi]

@TheSarasarina Ah I see. Try "layer clip" should work then.

[TheSarasarina]

@xxxRushi thanks very much.it work like clipping group.

[xxxRushi]

@TheSarasarina You're very welcome! Glad I could help :3

[TheSarasarina]

@xxxRushi you help me very much

[xxxRushi]

@ArtPro13 HyperCam2

[xxxRushi]

@Eiglew Yes.

[iDarkZhyper]

what kind of Pen u use? can u please give me tips.

ur pen looks like a real pencil mine is like on MS paint >.<

[xxxRushi]

@iDarkZhyper Uh...if you're using SAI, then pencil tool (by default) should already look like mine. If you're just using MS paint, then there's no way to change the pixel-y look it has.

[Ikilintu]

@iDarkZhyper mine too, i dont know why but in my new computer the default marker and pencil are like that :C

[ff13hopefan]

How do u get to da brush tool?

[xxxRushi]

@ff13hopefan It should already be there.

[nat4801713728]

This is off topic but hes hawt ! xD kinda looks like usui ;P

[LenCastagnier]

this is a stupid question.. but... Where the heck is my pencil tool?

[LenCastagnier]

For all those who doesn't know.. If you don't want your color to go over the line.. just change the art line layer to Multiply from Normal.

Problem solved

[imftpstiwnbh]

Uhm Im confused with the layers, How can I use them?

I scanned my drawing and how can I paint the hair and other stuffs?

how can I use layer?

sorry im so newbiee here!

[DeadEmoNinja]

I need help in the layers, I get so confused on them! and the clipping layer, I don't have that^^;

[Guamerican325]

when i color it goes over the drawing?

[AceandHiro1]

Love the eyes.:3

[xxBleachTAPSxx]

You have helped me alot!...now next stop get a tablet!!!!!

[cristelaledezma]

mine just goes over the line not inside the line and it colors everything and even covers the line

[the1vampfire]

Very helpful thanks i wish i had the pad for it way much easer then the mouse.

[ZombiesAreAwsmXD]

i love it .. makes me wanna practice more :) im kinda new . started doin pentab drawings like 2 days ago :D

[totoyamado]

DAYAM! this makes me want to do something! you're pretty good, i'll be watching more, and practicing, and "legally obtaining" this software, sometime this year.

[DarkBat29180]

um i have a question if you could help me i would be very thankful when i draw lines using a tablet it has no pressure to it and i use sai and advanced settings is checked and so is size and density nothing works can you help me at all anyone ?! ;A;

[SoulEaterisHot]

awesome this helping meh!~ :D

[Raphy27blahblahblah]

LMFAO!!! I see myself in you.... "Its CLEAN!!!" I have OCD and I don't like drawing that has too many strokes LoL and kinda messy coloring...xD

[FoBCHaRLoTTe96]

How do you get the jaggy effect when you did the hair?

Is it just pressure and size?

[xxxRushi]

@FoBCHaRLoTTe96 Yep. Just pressure and size.

[Bunnymunchys]

@xxxRushi :/ I changed the size many times as the density (which I'm assuming is pressure) and I still can't get the jaggy effect. I just get a rounded tip every single time.

[flipflapfeng]

@FoBCHaRLoTTe96 what does pressure and size mean?

[xxxRushi]

@flipflapfeng Pressure means how hard you press the tablet. Size means the size of the brush in terms of pixels.

[rheinna29]

nice one subarashii

[snejq3]

omg i dont get it why is everyones pencil so soft and round and mine just a line of the same thickness?! -.-

[xxxRushi]

@snejq3 Check your advanced settings. Make sure "size" is checked on.

[maddielue28]

@snejq3 Tablet?

[snejq3]

@maddielue28

i'm using one and it still doesn't look like that D:

[darklordprophecy]

one question, how was all that done without affecting the line art?

[cheeseballstopp]

@darklordprophecy By coloring on layers below the lineart. If something is on it's own layer it wont affect anything else.

[xEcztasy]

What exactly does the clipping group do?-3-

[xxxRushi]

@xEcztasy Uh...it binds whatever the clipping layer is to the base layer under it. YOU'LL NEVER COLOR OUTSIDE EVER AGAIN...once you've learned this trick. owob

[NoonJoon]

my sketches always come out shakey, i dont know why. D: i suck at digitl art.

[xxxRushi]

@NoonJoon You just need to practice! Think long/fast strokes. Could help you. Helps to increase the stabilizer in the top right. It'll help reduce the shakey lines.

[MultiPopcornz]

It was helpfull but a lil fast ; 3 ; had to pause and read LMFAO.. ~ But really good ; w ;

[YFGloveless]

how do you make the pen sharper? like.. it is round and you are able to make ... edges.. like.. xDD? i only have a mouse am i still able to pull it off with that?

[FuntomArtist666]

I dont understand how you put the shine in hair?

[xxxRushi]

@FuntomArtist666 You just take a brighter color and create strokes. If you want, you can go on a different layer and take the air brush tool, make strokes and set the layer to overlay for shiny desu desu. XD

[ZimMan26]

Very helpful thanks

[BeaSan95]

I have been sing Sai for half a year now...andI have been changing my method of blending and blurring so often...xD

I love the picture you colured *w*

[kekaichan]

awesome :D

[tenkashi1992]

how the fuck do you write so fast wit ha mouse?

[echizenn808]

A lil too fast 0.o

[SouthParkSkittles14]

ohmyjosh amazing :O i've been wondering how to do the skin and hair on SAI for a while now, this'll help!

[AndraJapan2]

how do u record?? and edit this?

[xxxRushi]

@AndraJapan2 I use hypercam for recording. I use Sony Vegas or Windows Movie Maker for editing.

[None3U]

Very Nice ^^ Im not too good with hair so this helped me

[RonRonRonWeasIey]

You have a wacom? The tablet or the big touch screen thingy?

Plus I cant get the hang of SAI.. :(

And using my ordinary bamboo tablet doesnt feel right and Im worse than on the mouse with it

[xxxRushi]

@RonRonRonWeasIey I use a wacom tablet. No big touch screen thingy. XD;; And it takes time to get used to the tablet. It's like relearning how to draw.

[RonRonRonWeasIey]

@xxxRushi

Haha yeaaah

[Meankittyonyt]

i think you're a fine person for doing this tutorial. every thing is clear, i know excactly what to do^^ TY

P.S. UR REALLY AWSUMXD i laughed for the last part:P

[Meankittyonyt]

i think you're a fine person for doing this tutorial. every thing is clear, i know excactly what to do^^ TY

[AznFake]

umm i dun get how'd u colour underneath the lines

[xxxRushi]

@AznFake Lines are a separate layer on top of a color layer.

[BloodRope217]

@0:20 how do you get it to colour in like that I made a new layer and it just colours over the line art??

[xxxRushi]

@BloodRope217 you forgot to set the new layer to clipping group.

[KissVirgin09]

I like? I LOVE! It was really helpful, colouring wise and sketching wise! I just had to try and redraw him to practice head shots - he's gorgeous! ;D Awesome job!

[VerixInfernoWolf]

Awsome *w* *add's to favorites*



[Blackllama13]

Thank you very helpful!

[naotoshirogane1]

Where can you buy a drawing tablet to do this?

[xxxRushi]

@naotoshirogane1 Amazon.com, Ebay.com, or Wacom.com.

[WhoringGod]

the way you control your mouse is awesome!! :3

[Kitame123]

how do you get the linework layer to stand out from the colors? ^^' i'm really new at this so it would help tuns

[xxxRushi]

@Kitame123 I chose black for lineart. Colors...you just pick them so they stand out. Lol.

[Kitame123]

@xxxRushi OMG you have saved me there thanks!

[alannayotsuba]

thank you very much for making this !! it's very helpful !! n_n

ah....the song is kinda like gunslinger girl's main theme .....OuO

[Naruto9451]

OH MY GAWD! U NEED A DEVIANTART!!! I WOULD MAKE A FAN GROUP FOR U xD!!!!

And I LEARNED SOOO MUCH FROM THIS!!! :D

And What is a Clipping group? :D

[Naruto9451]

OH MY GAWD! U NEED A DEVIANTART!!! I WOULD MAKE A FAN GROUP FOR U xD!!!!

And I LEARNED SOOO MUCH FROM THIS!!! :D

[ImFalling13]

i'd tried the method your using to color with the layers, but the color always covers the lines. for my lineart i used a linework layer. am i doing something wrong?

[roleplay14]

where can you get the pencil tool ? I don't have it on my Sai :(

[xxxRushi]

@roleplay14 Not quite sure. D; My SAI came with it...>>;; Maybe download a SAI that has it? owo;

[roleplay14]

@xxxRushi Oh ok, maybe it was updated I guess . well the pen tool works good for me so I'll deal with it ^^

[Kathylor1]

@xxxRushi its the same as the pen tool

[saya4haji]

@roleplay14 Pencil tool is the same as pen tool :D i just figured that out, i downloaded two different sai versions and noticed there the same thing :)

[roleplay14]

@saya4haji lol Oh ok ^^ Thanks for telling me :D

[HanakoFujita]

FAV! :D

[xxxRushi]

I use a bamboo fun. It's...basic. Lol.

But if you want something nicer, go for intuos4.

[SKEKCT]

This was an amazing help :)

[XxMayeruxX]

lol "i was distracted" xDDDDD

and then you draw cat ears on his head xDD

[buterflyxlink]

O.O!!! xDD you are expert xDD

[SpaztasticStar]

o~o do you use a mouse for your drawings on the compy?

[xxxRushi]

@SpaztasticStar I use a pen tablet.

[Konkyz]

hey! helped alot... what difference does "clipping group" do tho? thanks :D

[xxxRushi]

Clipping group allows you to color cleanly. If you're shading on a different layer, you might go out of the lines. That's when clipping group comes in handy.

[Pokeball26]

That is so freaking helpful!! Sankyu!! :P

[DyingWithASmile]

The eye part is really helpful. *-* THANK YOU for this. :3

[Jasperfarmer]

use a tablet?

[xxxRushi]

Yep.

[scottexon]

When you color the base how do you color with out overlapping everything? because whenever i color it seems to cover everything

[xxxRushi]

You need different layers. One layer for lines. Another layer for colors. I have lines on top of my colors so that my colors won't ruin the lines.

[scottexon]

yes i see, although when i put the layer over it still covers the lines... do i click something?

[scottexon]

oh wait multiply works...

[xxxRushi]

Well...I guess if that works for you...I would've just dragged my lines layer over my color layer...>>;;

[xCrimsonTwilightx]

I LOVE YOU!! lmao the part for shading skin behind the hair was very helpful, along with the hair. :3 thanks !!

[xxxRushi]

Lmfao. XD

[wolffy784]

I just started using SAI recently and I have no idea what most of the tools are for xD

can you tell me what's the difference in using clipping group, and some of the modes for each new layer? because I feel like there's no difference between some of them xD

~thanks <3

[xxxRushi]

Preserve opacity: You color over the layer without going out of the layers bounds. However, if you erase, you also erase the layer you're coloring over.

Clipping group: You need a base layer and another layer on top of that layer. So if layer 1 is your base, then layer 2 should be set to clipping group. It's the same thing as preserve opacity but with 2 separate layers. You can erase. I find this one more convenient.

Selection source: I don't know what this one does yet. =P

Hope that helps.

[wolffy784]

oh okii. thank you <33

I'll try and test it out x3

[GetLikeLacey]

For your line art, how do you make it look so smooth and non shaky?

XD my sketch always comes out better then my line art cause of how shaky my lines are

[xxxRushi]

Oh Haha. I just draw the lines really fast. Fast strokes = more smoothness. If it helps, you could always use the lineart tool that's somewhere around the layers window thing. XD

[GetLikeLacey]

XDD thanks I guess I'll just have to practice a lot more to get fast strokes and to control them.

you rock 8U!

[xxxRushi]

Thanks. XD

Good luck!

[ZwinkyProduction]

IT"S IN HD! xD

[xxxRushi]

Yeah. Lol.

[ZwinkyProduction]

OMG! SO AWESOME! DId you write that where it says HEY! lol. it's awesome. whats that program called? thanks xD

[xxxRushi]

Lol. That's my hand writing in the tutorial.

Programs are in the description.

[AxxGoldxxU]

@_@ too fast! Luckyly I have mad reading abilities =D

Also, music makes me sleepy ;_;

Rushi is hot as always x3

[xxxRushi]

Uh...yea. I can't help being fast since...well. I gotta speed the video up. Wouldn't wanna spend 1 hour just watching me do this real time. D;

I should've picked something more upbeat than this huh? XD;;

Thank you! =D

[gaarashomee]

very very helpful! Ill try this style soon 0w0
