I get the lasso is a great tool but my gosh is it mind blowing doing an initial sketch, inking sketch then have to basically resketch with lasso for selecting… there gotta be a better way.. awesome tips tho thanks a million

when i colour in my sketches, the colours stay pretty much seethrough... Is this a brush setting thing, or should i be using a different brush? I'm using a huion kamvas pro 13. Thanks for the vid mate.

I'm trying to move from CSP to photoshop because its the professional standard and oh boy, i was 100% sure that the only thing that i had to do is change some shortcuts and get used to the interface but learning Photoshop has been nothing but pain and frustration. -You cant change shortcuts that are hardcoded to the program so you are stuck with that annoying Ctrl that auto selects your layers when you Ctrl + Z. -No flipping canvas horizontally you have to pretty much create your own way of flipping the canvas and when you finally find a way to do it, it does not save your current position so you have to move your page again to get to your drawing every time you flip the canvas. -No live preview of your File or image you have to open a duplicate of your file and move it to the side and if you move your original the other one also moves which makes the experience frustrating. -The default layer is always a locked background and if you spend time doing your sketch with our realizing it was on the default locked background layer you are fucked. -It cant work with out Windows Ink which is the worst windows extension for drawing tablets, it makes moving your pen laggy and it takes forever to click on the interfaces of the program. -Constant Pop ups of annoying error messages when you click/select on empty layers or do something you are not supposed to do. -You cant hold down Ctrl + Z to undo quickly you have to click every single time you want to undo. i really want to know if all this can be fix with plugins to make it less stressful to learn.

Which tool is it that allows you to take a selection and then (im not sure the right descriptive word here) push or pull, drag, scale, stretch, or skew that selection piece that you have. For example say you have a Knight swinging a sword, and perhaps you meant to angle the blade of the sword a bit more, so i've seen artist in Photoshop make a selection and then they can adjust or move around that selction while the part of the blade that the Knight is holding is still anchored in his hand proper but they morphed the blade to have a slight more angle from the swinging motion. I hope I am describinbg the tol efficiently enough, it seems like a tool that would be used a ton in any kind of art really. Thank you for the help in advance. i'll be watching for replies as well. Thank You for this tutorial as well btw. Seeing that you can add and subtract to a selection just saved me so much time and wrist pains. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you, so very very very much!
