You are welcome.
A Tutorial that looks like a comic strip. I think you got something here.
I like your style.
My guess is you could be a good art teacher especially for comics if you are not already one.

joiachi In reply to watercan52 [2011-05-15 21:24:10 +0000 UTC]

Someone else had this problem too; it might be called "clipping group". if you still can't find it,you can screenshot your SAI layout for me, maybe I can find it. (just press the prtscrn key on your keyboard, upload it and link it to me)

joiachi In reply to joiachi [2011-05-15 21:25:28 +0000 UTC]

and even if you have no layer clip, you can colour everything on separate layers and not do the last erasing step until you've finished all the colours and then merged the layers into one layer.

You'd have to find a free copy to download online.

My sister got mine for me, I guess it's just looking around on google. If it's a torrent, get a torrent opener etc.

I believe she got it from piratebay? If you do decide to look there, be careful what you download.

Searching something like 'Paint Tool SAI full version' or anything like that may get you results.

Gingerdragon [2010-12-18 02:57:43 +0000 UTC]

wow thats a good tutorial ,
kinda more of a sai than a colour one?? and i never knew about the layer clip it will come in handy although mine was a lil different but i figured out with your help \o/
and the proper way is with a 'u'

mezza-verita [2010-12-17 23:39:19 +0000 UTC]

marxonmyface [2010-12-02 00:02:00 +0000 UTC]

uhhh so i tried to follow this but apparently my version doesnt have the layer clip

joiachi In reply to marxonmyface [2010-12-02 00:29:43 +0000 UTC]

It's fine if there is no layer clip. you can just colour them all on separate layers, and merge the layers afterwards, then erase the parts that go outside the lineart.
