heidii help;;;; i dont know how to use that gradient maps. Actually i still newbie using csp. If u have some tutorial from youtube and share it to me, i'll be so glad ;;;;;

OH NO FRIEND!!! I tried to go on yt to see if there are any tutorials and while disclaimer, i did not watch this through (help) the sections that a y e o o p s seems really good and covers alot of ground!!! YT LINK. Recently too kuroshiro has a bunch of informative vids on their process! Ive only watched a handful but I've had some friends recc them!

At around 9:49 they go through a similar process on how I use gradient maps (and other correction layers!!) where it creates another layer on top, and then you can further change the layer modes etc.

I also highly suggest watching clip studio paint speedpaints on yt so you can see other artists workflow and what tools they'll commonly use! I personally really like korean artists & artstyles (hehe) so I recommend NAKDI who is just absolutely goals and MINJYE who I just think is an absolute genius and draws really efficiently!!! But of course, I also recommend watching artists that have an artstyle that you personally like and would like to learn from!

However, if you have anymore questions just send me a DM!!! (while im notoriously bad at answering dms, if you just have a question abt art / anything I'd love to help!!! i love talking abt art stuff with people)

hope any of this helps! ❤️‍🩹🫂 good luck on your csp journey!
