This window will appear and you can choose the size of your file, the dpi, and the initial layer format (color or 8 bit). You can either go to the drop down menu under “file” and select “new” to make a new file, or you can use command + N if you’re on a mac. It gives you a few basic brushes to start out. Like most art programs, you can import different brushes and such to use. I’ll start off by explaining how to make a new page, the brushes, and the tools that come with Firealpaca. I am working with a mac, not a pc, however the set up and tools are pretty much the same from what I’ve heard. Help will find you certain tools incase you get lost or need assistance with a problem. ”Windows” controls the different windows open such as layers, brush control, color, ect.

”Tools” is basic tools, all of which you can find on the left of your screen as well.

Color gives you the option of a bar or wheel. You can find save, new file, and open file under “file.” Undo, Redo, Copy, past, ect you can find under “edit.” New layer, fill, clear, rotate, ect you can find under “layer.” Select, Deselect, inverse, ect you can find under “select.” To have the pen or tool snap to a certain line and only draw in one direction, you can find under snap. If you ever loose a window, you can click “windows” in the top. Tools are on the left, layers and a preview are on the right.

You can download it in any language for mac or pc and it works pretty nicely. I’m awful at explaining things, but heres my best go.įirst things first, firealpaca is a new art program that is free.
