The motion and the coloring is outstanding! I love the 2-D style.

You are so welcome! What program do you use to do your art?

I use photoshop and clipstudio!

Oh wow , I know clip studio paint but isn't Photoshop expensive?

Now Adobe charges Photoshop by a monthly basis--so if you want to try it, it'd be like $20 a month? I also hear.. Fire alpaca and Krita are good. ..I used Sai a lot before, and I liked it because it's such a lightweight drawing program (the con is it doesn't have a text tool or anything like that) but now I don't use it since it's not mac-compatible.

Clipstudio has a lot of functionality tho! And I think it's a really powerful program on par with Photoshop for drawing. Photoshop is just the industry standard in America.

Wow , that is so really helpful information. I was going to get Photoshop but when I went on the website it said a hundred dollars just to buy it. I don't know why it said that but maybe I read it wrong. Now knowing this I'm going to look in to photoshop. I also could not find a way too actually buy Paint tool Sai. I'm going to get Clip studio paint for sure but I also want to get Paint tool Sai. Can you tell me the steps on how to get it? If you don't mind please , it would be extremely helpful but if you don't have the time I totally understand. 😊

Hmm.. Here's a link to Adobe page for Photoshop CC (which is their latest version and monthly installment version): creative.adobe.com/plans?singl…
Looks like they offer Photoshop + Lightroom for $10 too. I don't know the requirements of if your computer will be compatible with Adobe Cloud or not so you'll have to check and make sure!

Getting Sai is a little tricky and I honestly don't remember how I got it. But ClipStudio is very similar to Sai. It's like Sai + photoshop combined. So I don't think you need Sai if you're going to get clipstudio.
