Sometimes, when I’ve got a war comic on the hop, I’ll create a file for reference and drop ref in to it, using clip studio’s 3d tools I’ll download a 3d model (using sketchfab.com) I’ll bring it in to clip studio and render it out as a couple of useful angles and then I’ll use that as the basis for the pencilling (I’ll copy and paste the ref gun into the page and make it a pencil layer and ink over it)
IT’S A CHEAT!
