You, miss, have taught me what everyone has been trying to teach me by saying "Your colors suck". Thank you! This was really well done, so simple yet with such tremendous results! I will refer to this frquently during my next color projects fo sho!

Oh, and that Chance picture, best yet! I love how she's evolving.

Hey, that was really good, Py! Thanks! You really broke it down to the basics so one would know what they were doing (now I know how some artists ink digitally!).

awww dawwwwg, THE SECRET IS TO INK WITH PEN TOOL!! OMG!!!

o so like does this mean you can just paint bucket your flats or do you still lasso or brush them in? are different colors on different layers? also for some areas where you get the gradient thing going (ie the sock) do you do a gradient first? or is that manually done with a light touch of the brush?

also question on color!!! when you set pallettes, do you make up specific pallete sets in PS or do you just do the dot thing that you have up there and just pick and softcell from that? DO YOU SHADE WITH THE SAME TONES? luls :D like the mits, are they also molded with that skintone color? or the cape or something? variations of that?

sorry to be bugging you with all these questions. lol. it's just whenever someone as good as you shares the knowledge, brain picking is crucial haha ;D

i still lasso them in, each on spearate layers. i gradient last, after i do my brush work. i dont shade with the same tone, i pick the diffrent colors for each of them. i hope i got all of them and i hope it helped!

how do you get such nice variable stroke weight with the pen tool? is this a photoshop CS feature? i only have PS7. this method could solve my life!!!

i only use PS7 to darhlin, i draw out my lines just like i would handinking then i fill the path. suprising enough it takes like no time.

omfg I don't believe you at ALL. But I should try it first, huh? :X I use pen tool to make custom shapes and stuff but the thought of inking with it is scary!

This is awesome. Now, if I can just figure out how on earth to bend the pen tool to my will... :D

oh wow, i dig your lines. You use pen tool? that's extremely hardcore, especially with the varying linewidths. PS: I covet her ovenmitts.

This is extremely useful, and I am extremely grateful.

I LEARNED SOMETHING TOO. I never even heard of the gradient map D: Is doing that somehow better than colorizing sketch lines using hue/saturation or the color channels?

.. chance's goggle-things are shiny on the 2nd-to-last pic but not the final one!! Did you change your mind about that? D:

why photoshops pen tool and not illustrators? is there a particular reason you chose photoshops that isnt "not having illustrator" (or using a lot of black fills?)

[info]pyawakit

June 9 2006, 21:33:40 UTC 5 years ago

nope, thats about it really. i gotta say that illustrator seems to be better for inking, but PS7 is all i own, so i'm really used to it.
