Description
Photoshop brushes with the Color-Me-Club logo and other text for marking lineart and color uploaded to said club.These were made in Photoshop 7. See below for other programs/versions. The brushes are approximately 500px.
ABOUT:
I've been a member of the since its inception. It helped me get a real grip on coloring--I could stop worrying about the lines and focus on the color. I love the CMC, and was upset to read their recent journal entry: [link]
Apparently people have been coloring and uploading images without any credit to the line artists. Personally, I've always taken uploading my own linework (which I don't do often) to mean opening my work up to that. That doesn't make it any less unfortunate. I usually upload lineart with my signature and a space for the colorist to sign as well.
Apparently an even simpler solution is needed. Why not make a universal brush that everyone can use to mark their work? Even if usernames are not used, we can all get used to recognizing the CMC logo included in lineart and color.
HOW TO USE:
LINE ART: Use this brush is a stamp. Set your color to black and click once.
COLOR: Use this brush as a stamp. Set to any color of your preference and click once. Use effects as desired. The rainbow borders on the preview image were made by using Photoshop's Layer Style->Gradient function.
MAKING YOUR OWN SIGNATURE BRUSH:
Is really easy, I swear!! Search deviantArt and Google for tutorials, there are many out there. Ideally, you should make a signature that includes the copyright symbol and the year. ie: ©2008
CAN I GET A BRUSH FOR ANOTHER PROGRAM OR VERSION OF PHOTOSHOP?
You can make one! Included in the zip file are the images I used to make the brushes. Search for tutorials and have at! Then, please send me and/or the Color-Me-Club a note so your brushes can be made public for other members of the club to use and enjoy.
WHY IS IT ALL BLACK OR ALL ONE COLOR?
That is the way Photoshop brushes work. They retain a black/white gradient of the shape you are using, but do not retain color. If you would prefer a more natural looking rainbow, I suggest using the outline brush and then coloring as part of the lineart.
