Description So it took me all day to do, but here it is at last. A full tutorial from paper to deviantart, how I draw, scan, edit, color AND shade. If you want to see a live version of how to do this, please see the video tutorial: [link]

SORRY FOR THE BLOODY HUGE FILE! YOU'LL HAVE TO DOWNLOAD IT, TO MAKE IT A REASONABLE SIZE! I'm really sorry about that. . . to resize it, I'd have to change all 48 slides, and then it's hard to read the photoshop text. geez, I suck at this.

Hurrr, thanks for making this. I was having a really hard time figuring out how to shade, and you seemed to have dumb'd it down enough for me, LOL. Very simple, clean and to the point which makes it great for me. x3
Thanks! c:

This was very helpful with shading, as well as functions of the program. I didn't exactly know what some of those things were for 'till now.

I'm a noob artist, so I'm going to be asking some really stupid questions.

In the coloring part, you said, "With darker colors, you might have halos around your line art." What are halos? Is that the white space between the color and the line?

And then you said, "Double click/paint to resolve the problem." I have no idea what that means. Could you please explain it?

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

ThirdPotato In reply to ShankSilenzikilu [2011-04-06 03:44:00 +0000 UTC]

No problemo, man!

Yes, you're absolutely correct about the "halos." THey're little white pixels between the lineart and the color that occurs because of the "fuzziness" of the lineart.

"Double click/paint to resolve the problem" is referring to the Paintbucket tool. You simply paint by clicking where you want to fill in the area. And "double click" to fill it in twice to resolve the issue with the halos.

I hope that helps! Lemmie know if you have further problems n.n

Double click with the paint bucket! Got it! I'm going to go try that now!

The file is huge, but I like a huge file as opposed to something so small that I can't read the darn thing! I love this tutorial, it's really in depth and at the same time, easy to understand!

At the same time...I'm jealous of your scanner, that's the kind that I want at home...

ThirdPotato In reply to DeviousVampire [2011-03-14 22:59:25 +0000 UTC]

XD yeah I been meaning to find a way to resize it. XDD But thank you so much! I'm so glad it could help!

And yeah, that was honestly the best scanner I"ve ever had D8 but it doesn't work with Windows 7 anymore TnT So I have a new scanner that sucks >,<

DeviousVampire In reply to ThirdPotato [2011-03-15 15:30:29 +0000 UTC]

That can be a taxing job...

By the way, this may be the wrong place to ask, but can you give me a critique on this picture that I'm working on? I really don't want to finish it and realize that there was something I could have corrected early in. [link]

That's always how it is, ain't it? You get a ton of faves, but no one says a word. :C

Please, for the love of god, make your flash tuts smaller in the future. I had to resize my browser to 50% just so I could read the whole thing with out having to keep scrolling up and down for everything. That made everything else on the page so small I can't read it though, but I could view the tut fine. I'm not even sure what I'm typing at the moment, I can barely see it! XD

Thank you for the tutorial.

XD Thanks, yeah there was no way to resize it in FLASH as a whole once it was all completed XD I tell people to hit download becuase it autmoatically resizes it in a new browser XD
