Ibis paint x can be such a joy and such a nightmare sometimes 😭 but your art is seriously so gorgeous no matter what program^^

2:30 you can flip the canvas as you wanted easier on the other flip buttom below the canvas preview and right next the camera button on the layer window.

5:35 on the special pen where you found the liquify tool, you could also find the lasso fill+lasso eraser too to help during the coloring phase.

5:55 gradient tool options are in filter>draw, but I'm afraid it's probably quite different from what other drawing programs use.

6:40 if you put all your layers inside a folder, you can click to merge everything at once.

7:05 pen pressure can be activated and configured on the Settings; however to work properly if you also configure the brushes to do so on Dynamic>Pressure. In the same place you can also manage to make the brushes mimic a pen pressure effect a little on "Speed" if your device do not enable the pen pressure on.
Something you didn't mention so I'm not sure if you saw, it's that theres a stabilizer option that can help too (it's the bottom with a finger icon right next to the ruler icon at the top of the screen); that's probably one of the reasons besides practice that people can draw with the finger on a phone

Now for color blending/mixing there's...no exactly a right way on the app, most of the artist improvise with the smudge tool, blur tool, messing with opacity or configuring your brush to do this effect (or you can import someone elses brush with this configuration already if the whole brushe settings it's overwhelming; to import/export brushes just click the "..." At the top of the brushes window)

Not really hating or judging you or anything for not doing so, but i'm kinda impressed by the amount of people who doesn't click and explore all the available buttons/options on a new app as soon as they install it—

Anyway, you did great for your first time! 🫶

5:00 as a person who makes all my art on my phone with my finger, it's surprising to see people who find that difficult xD

Hii! Amazing drawing, but you can flip the canvas where the layers are aswell! You just need to click the other button near the canvas! Good luck with learning ❤❤

[Just_A_Wild_Kat]

Honestly the idea of seeing Hanacue try using different free drawing programs sounds a like a really fun idea for a short series 👀

Incredible art as always though 💚

I don't like drawing digitally, but I like coloring digitally.

The best part about ibis for me is that I can simply sketch and lineart how I like to traditionally, take a photo of it and as soon as I upload it to ibis it immediately asked to convert my lineart to on a layer so it can be usable. ^^

"How on earth, do some of you manage to draw on a tiny screan with your finger, I will never understand" got me crazy like, I draw on my phone I don't need ipads or anything

[MegaMusichead]

I find when artists try a new program for the first time it really forces them to be creative and causes the piece to turn out great. Good job! :)

2:33 just a helpful note for next time :D you can flip the whole canvas in the layer menu underneath the little preview picture of your drawing on the left hand side

It’s so cool to see you using ibis pain x! I’ve been using it for years now and I’m glad you enjoyed it! It’s a little hard using at first but eventually you can find the wonders of it.

ibis paint offers so much to begineer artists and veterans too!

[meowster_chief]

it feels illegal to be this early, I LOVE YOUR ART SM YOU INSPIRE ME !!!! i've been doing a study of your style and following your learning to draw series but i have a long way to go! love you girl!!

[Gemmed]

IBIS IS LITERALLY MY LIFE SAVIOR AND BEGINNER LOVE <333 ❤✨

(art stealers, am watching you)

[sun_flower]

I love ur style is so unique too! Also u can create a layer from canvas so u dont have to merge them all down ( its the button with the two squares with a plus in the middle)

[majographics]

Few tips!
there is a gradient tool in fx inside of draw
theres also pen pressure in ibis just gotta look in the brush settings.

[j.s]

Yeaa i feel ur struggles with ibis, but even ur first time came out fantastic! Also a tip with merging, i usually turn my background layer invisible, then go to the layer window, press on the + sign, and select “add layers from canva, ” so it doesn’t mess with the blending modes.

[Vita_Rizz]

Loved the video! I've been using ibis paint on my phone for a few years now haha

Here are a few tips that I think you might find a bit useful:

-There's actually a canvas flip tool on the left side of where the layers are! (You can flip it horizontally and vertically)
-When you use the bucket tool I would recommend playing around wuth its settings, by pressing on the cog symbol! You can fix the gap recognition issue by making the strength greater
-You can also import custom brushes! You can select this option by clicking on the pen thingy and clicking on the 3 dots on the top right hand corner


Hope these help in the future ❤

[rottingcentric]

one of my pet peeves is when people try new applications but dont spend their time searching for stuff so they just assume it doesn't exist 😭 this video and the multiple comments explaining where to find stuff did it for me

i love this though and your drawings are always pretty !!

[drvgsndior]

ibis has been my main digital drawing app for the last 8 years, i’m so glad people are seeing the potential 🙏

Ibispaint honestly is very convenient and easy to learn, it’s hard to move on sometimes. Your drawing turns out amazing on here too!
