Clip Studio Paint Pro is one of the best drawing programs on the market. It was created for manga, comics and various types of illustrations, it also has basic animation support. Clip Studio Paint Pro lets you draw in three ways.

You can draw by hand with the pen tablet, in which case the program will interpret the pressure correctly as long as the tablet is inputting the data. The pressure curve can be adjusted in program settings. In Clip Studio Paint you can also draw vectorily on special vector layers and paint fillings with patterns, effects and patterns.

The program contains a lot of brushes of this type, so you can put leaves, stars, lines, ribbons, barbed wire and the like in the illustrations. More brushes, materials and patterns can be found in the program's resources page. The cherry on the cake is the ability to draw with transparency, which resembles painting with watercolors.

When colouring illustrations, you can take advantage of the possibility of gradient painting, filling with automatic line closure and painting small parts that have not been filled automatically, which greatly speeds up the finishing of the illustration. You can adjust the colours and improve the figures in the illustration at any time. You can use templates and drawing frames when compositing comic strips.

We also have a set of lines and measures available. When painting manga, you can also quickly convert colour illustrations to black and white, which imitate the style of comics. The same installation file allows you to test two variants of the program for 30 days:

Clip Studio Paint Pro for illustration and Clip Studio Paint Ex for manga drawing. There is also a version of Clip Studio Paint Debut, designed to create animations.
