PLS dont use the blur tool. pls
Don't wanna erase everything on the outside at the end? Use the magic tool/clipping tool/protect alpha your base color and color on top (´▽`)~ I just got lazy lmao
I was asked to make a tutorial on how I color/shade on FireAlpaca, so here it is!
Tbh, I choose random colors, pencil tool it up, mess with the opacity, and slap it on. Then thats done and I choose a different color and repeat the process. SERIOUSLY SO EASY AND LOW EFFORT. <<I wytiwyg="1" will say though--(for me) I've found that when in doubt, use a bigger/medium sized brush>>
The methods for coloring in FireAlpaca is so extremely limited, theres not much you can do besides cell shade, airbrush it, or do something with the pencil tool. This is a method of doing something with the pencil tool! FIREALPACA SUCKS WITH ITS BRUSHES. It literally has 3 brushes usable for coloring. DON'T USE AIRBRUSH/BLUR I actually don't like the look of completely blended coloring (it reminds me of smudging ew) and it's really uncreative and basic imo (unless theres a way to make it not look like the stated? idk I haven't seen it)
I prefer the look of lines and streaks; it's more realistic (and cooler looking)
DESPITE THE LOOKS AND ALL THE STEPS THIS WAY OF COLORING IS SUPER DUPER QUICK AND LAZY. I can color a whole piece with this method in about 1-3 hours (to me thats pretty fast ok I like detail). This isn't a method of blending btw, it's just piling on color and praying it works. Idk I don't blend lol
This is my first tutorial so sorry if its jank or lame looking I kinda got lazy making it lmao.
*edit* I typed it out! ayy
