oh my god if this brush does what I think it does this might be peak
Craziest brush of all time. It not an eraser. It uses the color mixing setting to bleed the layer into a geometric brush tip. I didnt know this shit was even possible. What the fuck. Here's the link!

Anonymous asked:
Do you have any tips for making gif comic pages? Whenever I make them the file is so huge and different than the other pages...
I was wondering bc I really like the Kochab pages and they maintain their quality!
yeah, it's just hard to make them without a huge file size :') some things I do to lessen it a little:
- I make gifs in Photoshop and save them by going to File > Export > Save for web (legacy), lowering the amount of colors as far as possible without losing too much quality, same with dithering, and try to keep the image size under 1000px wide or tall at most, if possible. you can play around with the settings in those panels to see how they affect the file size, and make changes.
- keep the animations to about 20-25ish frames. less frames = smaller files I think
- after I'm done in PS, use https://compressor.io/ to lower the file size a bit more. I do that for big illustration jpgs, or illustration gifs, as well as comic page gifs ✨
