Lineart Tutorialchex-mix.deviantart.com/art/Gi…
I finally got off and decided to finish this. So yay. Enjoy~ The character I depicted is Amaterasu from Okami, epic video game on ps2 hahah.
UPDATED! - 9/9/10
AAaaa.. much better now. It's short and simple, but I think this method is really good for both beginners and more advanced artists!
Hope you guys like!
Feel free to comment with any question
Since the old version featured a different method, you can still find it here: img826.imageshack.us/img826/21…
warning: super old art lmao
Note: this tutorial is from 2010! If any part of it is outdated let me know and I will update this tutorial.

(sorry for the late reply)
There's probably a gap in your lineart somewhere that's letting the selection leak out. Make sure to go over your lines again and cover up all the gaps like that.

make sure you actually have something selected, then go to Select > Grow. [:

A billion thanks for this tutorial I've been trying to do lineart for a while now but I never got the hang of it seeing as I can't draw good straight lines without sketching (I can't believe I never thought of uing vector tools
). Again, thanks

Have you tried using the wand to select OUTSIDE the lineart then INVERT then SHRINK by 1 pixal. It works pretty well ^^ It's how i colour.

For some reason,coloring that way doesn't work for me. In fact it won't even let me color on any layer but the background layer. What might I have done wrong?

Have you locked the transparency on your colouring layers? if you have, undo it. It doesn't let you colour on tranparent areas.

Thanks for the help but i can't seem to get fuzzy selection to work i click on it and reduce the threshold to 8 and the when i click on the area i want to colour it doesn't do anything the only thing that happens is the egg timer shows up on the screen? Thanks again.
