Now that we have some foundational knowledge of inking and of inking tools in Clip Studio Paint, let's talk about inking a comic page. These are some general tips, of course, because we could write an entire book about just inking comics (and entire books have, in fact, been written about this!). But for those just starting out, here are some general tips that make the inking process a little easier:
- Start with the panels that you're most excited about inking. In traditional inking, we would start from the opposite corner of our dominant hand and ink diagonally across the page and down to avoid smearing drying ink, but with digital inks, we don't have to worry about that. Start with whatever panels you wish to ink first and move around the page as you like.
