Clip Studio Paint 5 updates its 3D toolset with an integrated hand model to use as a reference when drawing. It includes seven presets and manual or automatic posing options via webcam. Additionally, it adds height-based fog and allows drawing directly on more types of three-dimensional objects. Color and tone corrections can also be applied to multiple layers at once.
Sequential saving and faster transformations 🚀
The new sequential recovery saving prevents progress loss in case of program failure. Raster layer transformations are now faster, and the user interface receives usability improvements. Perpetual licenses cost $63 for the Pro edition and $277 for the Ex edition. These features aim to optimize workflow without relying on cloud services.
3D Hand: your new model that never complains ✋
Finally, a hand that doesn't get tired, doesn't ask for coffee, and doesn't criticize your technique. The integrated 3D model lets you pose the limb as you wish, either manually or by using your own hand as a reference with the webcam. Of course, if you expected it to also applaud you when you finish the drawing, you'll have to settle for a virtual thumbs up. At least it won't charge you image rights.
