How to use layers in Speed Draw! – Roblox

On your mark, get set, draw!

The key to succeeding in the popular Roblox experience Speed Draw! is, well, speed! Of course you want to break out your best drawing skills, too, but knowing how to be efficient while you draw is what's most important.

For this reason, many players choose to use the layer feature while they draw, which allows them to split their picture into multiple parts.

When a round begins and your tools appear, shift your attention to the bottom right-hand corner of the screen and look for the icon that features two pieces of paper stacked on top of each other—this is the layer button.

Clicking this button will open the layer menu, which allows you to add, remove, and even hide layers to/from your project.

In most cases, players use layers to easily keep track of their drawing process and improve its efficiency. For an example, my process for using layers is detailed below.

  • First, I start with the base, which is made on Layer 1. This layer normally doesn't contain any color, and is simply an outline of whatever I'm planning to draw.

  • Next, I'm going to create and use Layer 2, which, in the case of this design, will contain the next largest part of my drawing—the tears.

  • Finally, I'm going to create Layer 3 and use it to fill in the base's color, and add any other color that I feel is missing from the drawing. I also moved this layer below layers 1 and 2, which means I won't have to worry about drawing over the base lines or the tears while I color.

Because I have my layers separated, I could easily alter/correct certain parts of the drawing once finished without having to take the time to erase it. If I felt I messed up the tears, I could hide or delete Layer 2 and try again. Or, if I wanted to keep the color but redo the base for some reason, I could do that too!

It's not at all a requirement to use layers in Speed Draw! (they don't make you a better drawer or more likely to win), so don't feel bad if you don't fully understand how they work or why they're useful. They're just an added feature that some players like and others don't, and that's ok!
