PSA: My line art looked shaky until I changed a single brush setting.
I was working on a comic panel last week and my strokes kept looking jagged. I use Clip Studio Paint and my stabilization was already at 50. I bumped the 'post correction' setting in the brush properties from 'none' to 'simple' and it smoothed everything out instantly. The lines just flowed better without feeling robotic. Anyone know other ways to fix wobbly lines besides stabilization?

Honestly, I'm with Jake on this one. Relying on software fixes just trains bad habits. My art teacher always said shaky lines come from drawing with your wrist and going too slow. Forcing yourself to draw with zero correction, even if it looks rough at first, builds way better muscle control. It's a crutch that makes everyone's line work look the same and kind of dead. You have to get comfortable with the wobble before you can actually fix it.

Wait, that's interesting because I actually had the opposite happen. I turned post correction off completely last month. My lines got a little shakier at first, but then I started drawing faster from my shoulder and they got way more natural looking. For me, the extra smoothing just made all my strokes feel the same. It killed the little bumps and variations that make a line look hand drawn. Maybe try a few warm up sketches with zero correction first?
