Feature guide
What the main tools do
Quick visual notes for the features artists ask about most.
Brush Engine
- Sketch, ink, paint, smudge, glow, cloud, and specialty brushes.
- Use brush size and opacity to control the mark.
- Custom brushes help save favorite drawing styles.
Layers
- Separate sketch, ink, color, shadows, and highlights.
- Turn layers visible/invisible, lock them, merge them, or change blend mode.
- Use layers to experiment without harming the original art.
Render Assist
- Uses line rails to help add base colors, shadows, and highlights.
- Best for turning line art into a colored starting point.
- Pick colors from big to little areas for better auto color results.
Proof Replay
- Records the process so artists can show how the work was made.
- Useful for proof clips, portfolio trust, and social posts.
- Future Pro tools can add certificate-style process exports.
Stamps
- Save a drawing detail and reuse it later.
- Great for ears, eyes, props, symbols, decorations, and repeat details.
- Stamp files can become reusable Starby Art assets.
References
