Wow, great work! But what is the resolution and size of the canvas you work on?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Thank you! <3
I use 600 dpi to start with. For this picture, I think the canvas size was something like 5.6 by 8.7 inches.

Wow, the file must be huge then
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
It is pretty big.
I shrink the end result to about 100 dpi though, so in the end it's not so bad.

Ah, I see
Anyways, thanks a lot for putting up this tutorial, it'll be a great help for me

So wait, with this fringe effect, wouldn't each brush stroke have an edge? Or only the outermost edge of that particular color on that layer would have an edge? Do you just throw down a giant blob on normal and then draw the border shape around it using fringe?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Only the outermost area of everything you apply on the layer has an edge.

That is awesome, thank you for that information! Hopefully this will improve my artwork, and help speed up the process.

;v; Thank you so much, I hate lineart with a burning passion
But I do have one question. Whenever I try using fringe, the edge of my stroke is just a slightly darker shade of the color I'm using. Is there any way to make the edge of my stroke a darker color? Thanks again~
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Hmm... I don't think there is, unfortunately. D:
Making the fringe wider might help to make it more noticeable. However, if you do stroke in Photoshop, you can control what color you want it to be. Hope that helps somewhat~

Darn! Oh well, it doesn't matter too much '3' thanks

Whoa whoa whoa!~ I've heard about the fringe effect but never really used it, and this method seems way easier than making all the lineart, drawing inside, erasing the areas that sticks out and stuff... Thanks alot.~

Haha no problem! I hope it helps~
