CLIPSTUDIO help! Brush leaves speckles after update! Color missing?

[atina1255]

Hey guys, I'm a little desperate as I don't know where to turn, this question is so weird and so specific, google and YouTube can't help me.

I upload one of my comic on webtoons. The first few panels require blush on the characters face. I used an airbrush I downloaded from Clip's brush assets and then after everything was done, I uploaded the comic to webtoon. I had saved my file in png. format. The preview is normal and shows EXACTLY the right thing.

After going to the new page in the series, I automatically notice, the area where blush was applied had underlying red dots/speckles as if someone drew freckles underneath (which I didn't)

I then went back with a normal water brush and tried again, same thing. I ended up having to delete the blush, and then noticed the eyes color was completely MISSING

I gave my character green eyes, but after upload, webtoons showed the eyes as grey, it wasn't until after I got rid of the blush and saved my page as JPEG that it went back to normal. Of course, my blush is gone and I'm upset about it.

Anyone have a solution or come across a problem like this before?

Thank you!!!!!

Mines be screwing up with the brushes, too, though not in the exact way that you describe. I found that saving and restarting the program helps. Though you may just need to restore it to an older version of the software, if you can.

I've been having trouble with the asset brushes not downloading properly. It could also be that your layers are being converted during export so your details get messed up.

Is there a way to fix that export differently?

[Zeedom]

you can try change the settings but my experience is to just work on raster layers so you know what you're gonna get post export. Vector layers get rasterized upon export thus messing up the image, also see whether you're using comic or illustration setting, I use illustration for all exports as it will still export tones but comic can cause issues. Also you should try png format unless it's absolutely necessary for another format, jpeg destroys detail so it should be avoided.

You mean instead of using the custom comic layout or making comic page just create my series on the illustration portion instead? And maybe just add in the border and frames and stuff like that?

[Zeedom]

yes, you can still use preset frames or make them yourself but the quality should be better after export
