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!

AMAZING Tutorial! I always figured that's how it was done, but I'm so lazy to do it. I know my art would be so much better if I took the extra few hours just to do the nice line art. I might try it at so point.

how did you get the pupil to be filled in? i end up having to just use the paint brush or paint bucket after i have done the line art.

I've learned using pen tool from this turial few tears ago. Now after a while I've tried to do this again but when I click right mouse button to use the Stroke Path, I cannot select it, it is grey, any idea why?
Thank you in advance!

i had that problem once. when i had this problem, it was because i was on the wrong layer.

I thought so too, I could use stroke on the layer with the sketch without a problem, but on each new one it was unavailable. In the end I just started from the very beginning... and it was ok.
Thanks for responding

I just learned something that might help when you have a ton of layers. So you dont have to name each and every one. If you want to select a certain one, instead of serching for it, you can use the pointer to right click on the line and select it that way. :3

It's the VERY first on the list of brushes. The ones that are scaled from 1 to 19. The round ones.

You I've searched everywhere and the only way you could get it is by installing a tablet. But using the "simulate brush pressure" would give you the same effect.

Ok so you want to color Sasuke's hair blue so you want the black coloring on his hair to be white correct? I can either just fix it for you (which would be faster) or I can try to explain step by step what I would do.

..where do u buy this photosphop???
can u do this with photoshop elements??(that is wut stupid me bought 
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
You can buy it at most electronic stores and/or stores that sell software. I don't think you can do this with elements, but I have never gotten to use it. Regular photoshop is usually kept off the sales floor in a case that the salesperson has to open for you, as it's going for about $700. Or you could have some techy friends in college, that works to
