OMG HI GUYS πŸ‘€πŸ’¦ It's been such a LOOOONG time since my last video! I'm so excited to start uploading again. I really, really hope you enjoy it. There's lots more coming in the future!

In this video, I'll guide you through the Fill Tool and its essential properties in Clip Studio Paint. This is not a sponsored video - I've made a personal decision to change from Photoshop to Clip Studio Paint, so my software in the future will be that. Although I always aim to mostly do art videos that you can watch regardless of your software.

    I had absolutely no idea the fill tool in CSP was so good!! This is such a helpful tutorial, thanks Nadia!! πŸ’–
  • One of the best Clip Studio tutorials I've ever seen and explains the fill tool so much better than Iv'e heard. I've been using it for a long time, but this will help immensely. I learned a bunch of new, useful stuff. Thank you, Nadia.
  • @edengrey670
    Clip studio should've paid you for this it was so extensive and well explained thank you so much !
  • @ZooTycoonLord
    Ive been using CSP for 3 and a half years now and I absolutely love it. Much better than Photoshop, personally.
  • @GuranPurin
    Amazing guide! I had no idea how people were coloring so efficiently in this program (I was basically doing it by hand), this is incredible and makes me more excited to really improve my drawing. Thank you so much for the guide!
  • @nickmoy5058
    Another tip when using the fill bucket tool: Hold down and drag your cursor across your line art and it will fill all the areas you drag to. Much easier than clicking 10 times on each enclosed area. Additionally, similar to the "connected pixels only" part at 16:51 ,but with even more control: Say you only want to change half of your blue areas to red. Start your cursor in a blue area, hold and drag the fill tool over those blue areas and it will change them to red. CSP will intelligently know you only want to change that blue hue and will ignore all other colors as you drag your cursor around the page.

    Great tips! I was so happy when I learned β€˜area scaling’. And yes- the reference layers. Just what we needed! Thanks so much for your videos- you inspired me to start my own drawing channel! 😊
  • @Alfos001
    Wow! I don't think I've ever sat through a more informative, smooth flowing tutorial dedicated to the usage of a single tool! Seriously those were incredible if not game-changing tips, even for my amature works! Thanks a bunch! πŸ˜„πŸ‘

    This is by far the best tutorial video for Clip Studio I have seen yet! I always feel like I’m doing so much guesswork when I work digitally because I don’t fully understand the tools I’m using, but I have trouble finding good comprehensive tutorials. This video was exactly what I’ve always wanted, I finally feel like I can use at least one element of Clip to its full potential! Subbed and liked, hoping for many more Clip Studio tutorials like this one!
  • @conebride2581
    This is a fantastic tutotrial! So detailed and well presented -- I have given up on fill due to it always feeling wrong, I think I'm gonna revisit it soon to much much better results!
  • @BEBHaven
    This is fantastic. I'd love to see more tutorials like this, more deep dives on the inner mysteries of specific tools.
  • @senipie
    THAT LAST TIP WAS SO GOOD!!! no more having to constantly have my flats in separate layers thank you thank you so much for this very informative video!
  • I've just started learning to draw and got myself Clip studio Paint yesterday. This tutorial was super helpful so thank you very much!! I always love when a tutorial explains why things do what they do instead of just showing you which buttons to press etc without understanding any of it.
  • this was so SO helpful!! I've been struggling with using the fill tool for quite some time now, and now I understand it so much better! It helped my cut my drawing time in half now that I can do it much more efficiently. Thanks so much for making this tutorial!!
  • @panthaazmee7389
    The optimize workflow section of this literally just saved my life. Tip #2 and #4 are what i've been looking for forever!
  • @nico6992
    ive been using the tool for years and didn't know most of this, this is an AMAZING tutorial. thank you so so much!
  • This is a fantastic tutorial, I am a total newbie who also switched from Photoshop after using it for years. I was coloring basically by hand all these years, this makes it SO much faster! Thank you!
  • @MrNiskratus
    absolutely amazing, I've been using Clip Studio for years (started back when it was Manga Studio), but i was always to scared to fiddle with these tools because i never had an explicit example of how they worked. Thank you, this is going to change my work flow so much. 🀩
  • @Peppertice
    Glad your back and alright! Your artstyle's incredibly iconic. I love the lineart mostly
  • @kcr8776
    This literally changed my life. All this time I had no idea you had to set the fill tool to refer to multiple layers. And here I thought I was just that bad at lineart! Thank you so much for this
