Description I promised I would make a tutorial. I'm horrible at explaining things, so I think I ended up over compensating and explaining too much, if that makes since. God I'm so afraid this thing won't make any sense to anyone but me. Oh well, what's done is done. I hope this helps everyone who wants to know how I do my line art. Comment here if you have questions/comments/concerns

Full view to see the tutorial. It's a huge picture, so beware!

Found this a while ago and forgot to favourite it, been searching for it for ages.. So happy to find it again

Thank you so much for this wonderful (and very carefully explained) tutorial, I'm so glad I don't have to muck about with fading and erasing my line art any more to try and make it look like a pen line..

Keep up teh awesome works xX

Gawd, I'm such a n00b at Photoshop...

I didn't even know that the pen tool existed

Too be fair, I've only had it for, like, 3 days XD

(This was a huge help, BTW. Loved it~! )
