Hi there! Your pieces often have this hazy, glowy quality and it’s beautiful! Do you use any overlays? I love your art!!
Oh yes I actually use a filter!
So here is how I add that slight glow to my drawings:
(This is for Clip studio paint users)
Easy version: Have your art as a png. Duplicate your only layer so you'll have two layers (the two same pictures). Select the upper layer
Go to:
Filter > Blur > Gaussian blur
Choose how much blur you want (not too much) and....BOOM!
You have a nice glow!
For CSP folks who know about Auto actions and want to be able to do it in one simple shortcut (with other cool effects):
So first you need to download the auto action retro effect v2:
(bear with me because everything is in french for me so I'm roughly guessing what it must be in english)
(Number: 1953549)
Then you are going to check your downloaded assets for that effect and click on this small thing at the bottom of your screen
This will add your effect into your automatic actions. To reach it, you need to click: File > shortcuts settings > Auto action
(this is for any auto action you might download so remember to do that each time)
This will open and you'll have your effect:
You'll have several actions available (which I invite you to test), but the one that's important is retro blur with a little bit of the others (sometimes I only use that blur)
Choose a shortcut of your choice (click on it and just tap it down) then click on "ok".
NOW you should have the blur effect. What I advise you is that once you finish a drawing, you make it into a png, jpeg, whatever file you want to post and use the effect on it (that way all the drawing is affected)
This will appear and you can play with it if you want more or less blur. If you don't want to hurt your eyes too much I would advise not put too much of blur. I also add a little bit of overlay (pink or purple, very little opacity)
And here you go!
Hope this helps ∠( ᐛ 」∠)_
