oof.

BZZZAP! what's that? it's tone blaster, an auto action set for clip studio paint that adds a cool screentone dot overlay to your line art with one click!

the effect is completely non-destructive and can be undone or adjusted as needed. there are even options for different frequencies so you can choose how big or small you want the dots to be:

i've used this effect a lot in my own art and saved a lot of time with the action set so i thought it'd be worth sharing with everyone :)

some tips for best results:

change your drawing color to match the line art color before using the action! you can also try a lighter tint if your line art is black or another very dark color

use a brush with some transparency in its texture - this lends the dot effect extra visual interest

high frequencies (small dots) are a good option for light or thin lines since the effect will be more visible that way

you can use it on more than just line art - just make sure everything on the layer is the same or similar colors since the overlay can only be one color at a time

"Horse but make it a lizard and give it bat wings and horns"

didnt know how to interpret "make it a lizard" so i wrote lizard and drew an arrow pointing to the horse so people know its a lizard. Also didn't know what bat horns were so I gave it a horned bat nose

"A body like a big cat but completely covered in scales, the head of a crocodile with the horns of an ibex, and the wings of a bat on its back"

On it boss o7, ive mashed all these animals together and threw scales all over it. This the dragon you saw?

"Take a lizard, extend the neck. Add a pair of bat wings to the back. Add horns and sharp teeth."

Seems like we're onto somethin' boss! Though idk how it'd be so fearsome bein such a small thing.

"Big-ass lizard with wings" "big lizard" "Giant lizard" "Big fucking lizard"

don't seem too special?

"Imagine a winged alligator that was 70 feet tall and aware of its existence"

i dont know if this is a dragon but it could definitely be some kind of god

"Dinosaur with wings and horns?"

Dunno which dino you were talkin about so i just picked a random one. Stegosauus :}

"Big snake with legs and horns that can breathe fire"

Ah. Hm.
