[Reply #691 on:]

Voices, you are the best damn Cartoonist Artist I've met in years. That even put's you over the top over a few brilliant Anime Artists, who I still love and don't want bricks through my window.

Make some cute Amy pictures please!

And yes, Voices and Fem-Jesse uniting and doing erotic Futurama art, not sleazy stuff of course.

[Reply #692 on:]

Very nice, i like I like...

*spalt*

[Reply #693 on:]

Damn browser, I hate it when it does this. See above for actual post.

If not that's alright, we Amy fan's feel a little neglected lately.

New rule. Nobody hug's Marge.

[Reply #699 on:]

Hey I read that you guys... =^.^=;;
I will reiterate.  "I'm sure Tom isn't interested in uniting and doing erotic anything."
Especially since he just got a new toy, he probably wants to play with it like I do.
(The Wacom, sickos... what did you think I was talking about...)

[Reply #700 on:]

A computer game or a new set of clothes actually.

I'm not kidding.

Sometimes I miss KENNEDY. I wish I had a coloured avatar of me stirring that bowl.

[Reply #703 on:]

Jess: Ha ha, if it pisses a load of people off then I'm up for it

Killerfox: nope it's not copywrited, but it's protected by 'Voices Law'. Do anythings with my pictures with out my permission and i'll get Speli to rape you, if he's not already

That's hot, brother.  (mumbles something about sweet sweet love)...
Hey if we actually did do porn then people would be satisified, so lets just talk about doing it to piss them off!
I discovered my third new way of coloring in photoshop that works especially well with your type of inking.
Did you ever do the background copy layer>multiply dealy and color underneath the linework layer?  Its a lot more crisp then singling out the black and white channel.  Its like making sweet sweet something!
[quagmire]All right.[/quagmire]

[Reply #706 on:]

that is sooooooooooo cooooooooool

That's the only way I know how to colour line art.

That's extremely well drawn, nice balance of black and white. When you can get away with minimal detail on the face, yet still convey the exact expression you want, that's when you know you're great!

I thought it would be! His eye-brows aren't very very bushy but that's really him. So so awesome!

That is awesome. Simply awesome.

Well its the best way I've found for your kind of stuff, with heavy block shading and crosshatching.  I'd been making the image grayscale, selecting the greys channel, and deleting it, which works better for my pencil-y stuff.  It makes all the whites on the linework layer transparent, rather than white, but it can lead to a small loss of detail (usually reversible by copying and laying the lines over themselves). 

I found a better way (for sketchy things) using layer filters, and making two layers with the original linework on it, make the top line layer "overlay" and the bottom one "multiply", then coloring under them per usual.  I've just been able to get some really exciting effects that way =^.^=

(God I'm such a loser...)

[Reply #713 on:]

hey that is awsome!!! really cool, i like that only shadows tecnique is trully awsome.

ohhh lord, you are under soo much pressure and work and you still have time to check back on PEEL????
[Fry]you have much to teach us[/Fry]

[Reply #714 on:]

that's awesome. the clothes are extremely detailed and the shading is really nice.

[Reply #715 on:]

Very nice work love the shadows.

[Reply #716 on:]

Your not a looser FJ, in fact I find the info very helpful.  Or rather I would if I had any clue how to use layers and do the stuff your talking about.

I have always had trouble working with coloring line drawings in PSP becasue of that "grey" border that always lies to each side of the drawn line.  You can't flood fill, because it stops at the grey edge.

To get around this I always scanned large, fiddled with the histogram and contrast until I got it as close to 2 color as I could.  Maybe converted it to 2 colors to get rid of the stragglers.  Then cleaned up the varios smudges and black areas that weren't supposed to be there, by hand.  Then finally colored, blurred it to blend the edges, then resized it much smaller to "resharpen the image".

It's messy

It's a PITA

There has to be a better way.

Well I'm not very experienced with newer versions of PSP, but I had 4.0 back in the day, and I can tell you that the "gray edge" is a result of shades of gray in the original scan you're working with.  If the picture isn't scanned using only two tones (100% black and 100% white), you're going to have to increase the tolerance of the flood fill.  (I use about 80%, but try 80-100)
If you're going to try and scan pure black on white, use inking pens and erase the pencil underneath.

Scanning larger to a higher resolution is always a good way to work, especially if you're not using layers.  When the final image is reduced, the program goes through a rendering process known as "anti-aliasing," which blends colors and smooths out the lines.

[Reply #718 on:]

Hmmmm, so I guess there isn't a better way.     I think what I need is a light box, so I can "trace" the inked version and therefore not have all those *very faint* left over pencil lines that muck up high contrast scanning.

Other then that, it occures to me that we are proably being rude, discussing PSP techniques in TV's thread.

That's my fault, sorry TV.
