Soap Master knows that everyone has a lot of problems:
"How should the sai brush be set?"
"When I draw, the lines are always shaking and distorted. How to fix it?"
"Zoom, how should I adjust these movements?"
......
Or: "What is SAI? Do you have to use this for drawing board?"
Some problems are relatively new to the game, Soap Jun knows that some students are embarrassed to ask, can only silently find their own information, looking for a long time or do not understand. Don't worry, today, soap king has arranged the interface function of SAI for everyone, and also has a shortcut key setting to help you get started easily!
1. What is SAI?
SAI is a simple and easy to use drawing software. Because it is specially designed to draw, many functions are more humane than PS. PS is a picture processing software, AI is a vector drawing software, there is no distinction between good and bad, but the use focus is not the same.
This is the main page of SAI, the layer association panel on the left and the color and tool association panel on the right. The position of the two panels can be adjusted. Click on "Window", you can choose to put the left side, or you can choose to put the right side.
Help you get started easily!
Second, color tools and associated panels
1 color wheel
The color wheel is the most used thing in the SAI except for the brush, used for color selection.
Custom color palettes can be used to put the colors that you usually use, right click on the small grid "Add color". The note is equivalent to a draft paper, which can be pulled out to match the color. It is a watercolor palette. If you don't need it, you can click on the top to recover.
2 shape selection and adjustment tools
Rectangle tool: You can select a rounded rectangle (as shown below, the following material comes from the Sai repository)
Lasso tool: Compared to the rectangle, this shape can be freely selected.
Magic wand tool: you can choose a large area, and relatively accurate, such as the corners of clothes can choose
In addition, here is another selection tool, the "select pen" in the brush, this relative magic wand will be more detailed. Therefore, it is generally used after the magic wand is automatically selected, and then the "select pen" and "selection wipe" are used for correction. PS. Deselect: ctrl+D
Move tool: You can move the picture on the layer, but it is generally not used, because pressing ctrl and dragging with the mouse can be used.
Zoom tool: you can zoom in on the image. Generally, you can use the navigator and mouse wheel instead.
Hand tool: used to move the canvas, as above, the mouse wheel can be used instead
Straw tool: you can absorb any color on the canvas, or you can use the right mouse button instead
Third, the brush
Brushes are the most used things for SAI~
The basic brush is just a few. Many brushes, such as blur, are obtained by the deformation of the watercolor pen, so you can match the brush that suits your style. I often see people sharing brushes on the Internet. Brushes can be downloaded and installed. As shown below
Brush settings are also the favorite things for children's shoes~
The DA painter phantasm shares 9 SAI brush settings with materials, suitable for coloring, the effect is great~
Fourth, the jitter correction
This is easier to use, and it can make the lines that are distorted and twisted round, and the higher the value, the bigger the correction.
Example of jitter correction↓
Fifth, the layer association panel
First click on "File" in the upper left corner - select "New File"
Jump out of the box and click "OK". At this time, look at the layer association panel on the left, which is bright.
1. [Navigator] can be used to rotate and zoom, the rightmost small square is restored
2. [Painting & Painting Materials]
The material of drawing paper is not difficult to understand, the [watercolor edge] of the painting effect is to be said
The edge of the watercolor shows the edge effect of the pigment's dryness, which is used to imitate the watercolor; the watercolor edge can also be used to strengthen the edges and increase the layering.
3. [Mixed Mode]
Generally, the shadow is “positive filmâ€, and the high-gloss object uses “filter color†or “linear lighteningâ€. As shown below
4. [Opacity (for local coloring)]
By checking the protection opacity, you can make the opaque area of ​​the layer fixed, that is, to ensure that the color is not painted out.
5. [Clip layer mask (upper shadow)]
This feature is more complicated but very common, so it should be explained in detail. The premise of using this feature is that you have more than two layers.
Sixth, brightness - transparency (extract line drawing)
Brightness-transparency is also a useful feature that is typically used to extract line drawings. For example, if you want to use a line of a flower in a painting, you can take it in another layer and take the line and put it directly.
The blue pencil touched the guest
