Yes while Clip Studio Paint is good it can be overwhelming for new users, while Comic Life 3 is a good stepping stone for those just getting started in comic creation as it is very easy to use. If you're really in to creating comics I would you look into getting Clip Studio Paint, it has far more tools for creating comics than anything else out there. Your image is a little dark, it's important that your point interest stands out from you background. all text in comics needs to be capitalized, that way it looks neater. As far as entering text you need to go here and read the lettering tips. text is automatically centered in the speech balloon. CSP includes over 60 pre made speech balloons and the ability to custom make your own speech balloons. Here are two pages from my comic these were done in Clip Studio Paint. If you don't like what you get just undo it and try again with a different thickness. The line thickness to use depends on the resolution of the image and how thick you want the line. This draws a black line round all of the bubbles. This fills all of the selected parts of the layer.įinally I set the pen to black and use "Stroke Selection" from the edit menu. Once I've selected all of the speech and though bubbles I set the pen to white, select the bucket fill tool and click on any selected part of the layer. I find it easist to draw each circle away from anything else then drag it over until it merges with the others. I use freehand select to draw the spouts, or whatever you call them, going to the character's mouths, still in add mode.įor those bubbly thought bubbles I use a lot of overlapping circular selections. For captions in boxes I use the rectagular select tool. I make sure that I have the mode set to "add to current selection" so they all get added to the layer. I use the elipse select tool to select an eliptical speech bubble round each bit of text. Next I create a new layer above the image but below all of the text layers. Here is the approach I developed.įirst I type in the text using the text tool and try to shape it into rounded shapes.
I did a bit of fiddling around with this in Gimp.
