SQUARE or TRIANGULAR color picker. Which one is better?

It's not just the aesthetic. Using a triangular or square color picker can change the way you make art. In this tutorial, I also show you how to change your color picker in Clip Studio Paint. Which one is more efficient, the square or the triangular color picker?

Krita also have the ability to change the color wheel. And there's a ton like circle that i've never use. I think this tip helps a lot for people who wants to have a more vibrant look on their piece. Thanks for this my dude.

[@Devilboy_1029]

Well it doesn't matter all that much. It goes in the square hole anyway

[@SwedePotato314]

This is life changing. Ive been a traditional artist for YEARS and I sitched to digital and I got CSP, the CSP tabmate... but Im missing the basics. The very basics of digital. I dont understand how layers work. Or what each settinf does to a layer. Some videos will tell me what setting to put for shadows but not explain why. So later on when I am trying on my own to find a way to create an effect it is impossible. I genuinely need a good run down of the very basics.

[@Adachi_Zephyr]

@SwedePotato314 I've been doing both traditional and digital ever since I started taking art seriously and I feel this so much. Even after like 4 years I only discovered a few days ago how the multiply blend mode works from this guy and finally started using it in my art

[@Danikoshii]

Autodesk Sketchbook has an interesting case. Its color wheel is square but black occupies one corner rather than a whole side. The other three corners have white, perfect mid-tone grey, and full saturation or your hue.

[@tanoak_matsutake]

I use Autodesk Sketchbook and I got confused when he said which was value and which was saturation on his color wheel 😭 I'm still an amateur so I might be interpreting it wrong but does it still apply to Sketchbook or it's the other way around? Like the horizontal axis is values and the vertical is saturation.

[@The_TK2306]

​@@tanoak_matsutake I've never thought about this before. After a bit of messing around, it seems to be that horizontal is saturation and vertical is lightness. However when you move the lightness, it shifts the saturation in some way. I'm not sure how to describe it better, but you can take a look yourself.

[@Luminousandgraceful]

I dream of the day this setting will be in other apps too

I want to said you are on another level but stop since you are not draw by the number, but now i am thinking you are another level because programing is math and i don't understand them at all

[@netherqueen5891]

I like the circle that Procreate has, it has the same points as the triangle, but rounded out to have space for value too

[@frauleinbiblioteka]

Oh! I switched to a triangular color picker ages ago, but since then i started really enjoying playing around with very dark and desaturated color palettes, and its really hard to pick those with the triangle, i think i might actually benefit from switching back to square

[@gpani22]

Am I the only one crying over the TLOU 2 Ellie bday art 😭

[@frangipani12]

I like how he draws a scene instead of just potrait 🙂

[@The-Milky-Way--they-it]

I like the diamond color picker! probably partially because I started out with windows sketchbook, but I genuinely think it’s really good. one corner has a fully saturated hue, one corner has white, one corner has black, and one corner has a perfectly midtone gray! and the stretch from fully saturated to fully gray is the widest part, which makes it feel really natural to be able to choose colors that are bright midtones without them being SUPER bright, you know?

[@imdedbahahaha]

i use a tilted square one-

[@woobthepinkbunny8661]

THIS WAS LITERALLY THE THING I WAS MISSING OMG

Both are the same to me but im more used to seeing the square one so thats why i use it

hadnt connected the two ideas until now

[@AstonishedByTheLackOfCake]

try using an OKLAB based colour picker, since that colour space preserves constant light-ness when changing hue way better than HSL

[@poppytempest]

That's good to know! 😊 I wonder if its possible for you to put a tutorial on how to choose colours using the triangle colour wheel?😮

[@Adachi_Zephyr]

Imo neither are good. They take up way too much space on clip studio (i dont use clip studio often but i do know how the ui works to some extent) and they discourage shifting the hue when shading. A simple set of hsb sliders does things much better

[@2304Animations]

Bro I gave the triangular color wheel a try after seeing this, but now I can't go back

[@arcanine_enjoyer]

I actually just use the HSV/RGB sliders a lot but if I'm lazy I use the wheel. There's also the Circle variation where the circle is Hues and Saturation and the line on the side is Value. Square is for precision, and Triangle is for vibrance. That's my take on this.

[@Musicf3in]

Thank youuuuuuu ❤

[@MrRedstoneready]

Way i see it theyre the same, but as you approach white or black your saturation will always go down, so why allow full saturation range on a value with less max saturation. Have the sat level condense down to zero at the top and bottom to make it easier to know what you're changing

[@forparadise23]

I like your smile 😊🤍

[@samypower]

As a pixel art artist, i use none, u just manually change the hue, brigthness, and saturation on the libresprite menu
