I really need to learn how to line art if i wanna really color on the computer. In truth, i think id rather use paints or prismacolor markers, but urm. Well, expensive. so if any of u can give me tips on how to turn my dragons into line art, i'd appreciate it
Gahh... I don't like making things CG-friendly. Erk.
Well, some general tips for CGing
+Do you pencil work extremely lightly, any slight smudging can turn into a pain in the booty to clean up.
+Try to make your lines very tight and strong and just generally a lil thicker then normal, like a coloring book . Sketchiness is generally another pain in the booty once you're on the computer.
+Invest in a good program... such as Adobe Photoshop :3
Also, in some areas where normally you might feel you want to get a lil loose n sketchy n suchsuch, try varying the line width. :3
Very basic... but I feel I should pay attention to what the artist is asking for
Wow, nice dragon! I found a way to do linearts really nicely and clean, but you have to have about 26 bucks to spare. Go to an art store and look for something called a Light Box tracer. It's pretty much the bottom part of an overhead projector. While you're there, get some nice outlining pens, preferably those really skinny felt tips. Take your sketch and a clean, white sheet of paper. Tape your sketch pencil-side-down to the clean paper with masking tape. Turn on the lightbox and put the paper on the tracer sketch-side-down. Carefully trace your sketch onto the clean paper with the pen. If you mess up or something, just get a new piece of clean paper and start over. When your done, viola! No more scratchy lines and erasurs!! Hope that helps!
Yes, making things CG'able is hard. -_- It's a lot easier if you have a tablet. However, I don't have one, so I can't tell you how to use them. However, you can download OpenCanvas from portalgraphics.net and retrace the lines on a new layer. That's what I do. It takes a while, though. Most things done on a computer do, though. -_-
-- what's hard and straight going in, and soft and sticky coming out?
If you know how to use a paint program well enough you don't need to worry about line work.
What you have there is for the most part clearer than what I usually work with on my own pictures for example.
