This material collection includes materials that can be used in Studio Mode. (What is Studio Mode?)

"For your eyes only". Don't strain your eyes looking at your white sceen for long periods, use this background paper to give your eyes some relief.

BASICS

This is an autoaction set plus colour palette (aka. "color set") that creates a "Background Paper" folder in the bottom of all your layers while dawing & rendering. To give your eyes an easy time while drawing for long periods.

SPECIFICS

The categories: [🌞Day Mode] and [🌜Night Mode] don't depend/refer to your clipstudio paint theme, they're terms I used to separate the colours by saturation and luminance. You can pick from either mode regardless of your clipstudio paint theme.

[🌞Day Mode] = Saturation 13% / Luminance 60%-50%-40%

[🌜Night Mode] = Saturation 7%-5% / Luminance 50%-40%-31%-25%-15%

The colour palette (color set) has 90 variations including the base hues I used. Base Hues (in order): Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Cyan, Blue, Indigo, Violet, Magenta, Black.

Below are the default colours of the autoaction.

(See instructions below on how to pick from the other variants from the palette)

HOW TO USE

1. Import the autoaction [ Background Paper ] set
2. Select the hue you like from any of the modes & hues
3. Adjust the opacity of the folder or turn off the visibility of the folder if you need to.

[CUSTOM] autoaction can be used if you want to pick from the other variants or another colour of your choice. It's important you import the [background paper] colour palette before you can change the colour with the [CUSTOM] autoaction!

(see gif below for visuals)

Changing the hue/ saturation/ luminosity of the Fill layer:

1. in the "background paper" folder, select the fill layer and unlock it
2. change your tool to the Operation tool
3. make sure your main colour is selected
4. manipulate your colour wheel point or colour slider to change the hue/ saturation/ luminosity

(see gif below for visuals)

Example

I use this for sketching, doing lineart, and rendering. The main purpose of this is to lessen the strain on my eyes when I'm making art, because the white paper is too much to handle. Then when I'm done with the art, I either turn it off or I reuse the fill layer for a background effect.

IMPORTANT

I put the fill layer in a folder so that you can adjust the opacity of the fill layer, without accidentally selecting the fill layer. I highly advise to lock the fill layer after changing the colour. I didn't bother creating the autoaction without the folder, because I've learnt that locking & unlocking the fill layer just to change the brightness is bothersome.
Because I desaturated the hues, the darker the colour gets the more indistinguishable it is from the other hues' versions of that darkness. Although there's at least 5% saturation level in the darkest of the colours just to give that warm or cool vibe of the hue. I don't believe having a high saturation (ie. >20%) for the background paper is good for rendering purposes and/or for the eyes.
The "Background Paper" folder automatically goes to the bottom of all your layers. If an error window occurs, just click OK.
If you can't see the background paper, then there's a layer somewhere above it that's covering the canvas.

CONCLUSION

I made this for myself and decided to extend the variations and make an autoaction as well as palette/color set for fast referencing. I don't care if the HUE% is correct, I just chose whichever hue% that suited the name colours. Hope this is helpful to those who need it.
