I kinda did the free pen tool and everything but somehow when I stroke the mark it makes a dot >>;; not the rest of the line o.o;;

Your pen tutorial is incredibly helpful, but when I try to use the pen tool, it won't let me draw free hand D:

DejiNyucu In reply to Color-Bubbles [2006-05-07 15:47:09 +0000 UTC]

nup, the idea of the pen tool is draw with points, not freehand ....

I agree, the lineart is really cute.
I'd looove to make linearts cause my scanner is bad quality, but I have Photoshop Elements 4.0 ... is it possible?

Kawatta [2006-01-26 16:37:35 +0000 UTC]

It's a wonderful tutorial, but I keep having the same problem over and over.

The pen tool always goes right into making Vector Masks on shape layers, not work paths, and automaticly fills in the line between the start and end anchor points. I think I got it to work once, but I'm not sure how.
(using PhotoShop CS2)

DejiNyucu In reply to Kawatta [2006-01-26 17:34:31 +0000 UTC]

make sure that, when the pen tool is selected, the correct button is activated in the top left corner of the window. That should be the 2nd one, If I'm right, and the one activated by default is the 1st one and that creates the vector shapes

X-Cold-Hearted-X [2005-11-16 11:53:35 +0000 UTC]

Me havie a question. What kinda brush thingy do you use for the lines? Like, what are the settings? I always mess up my lineart cause I can't get the stupid brushes right T.T

And great tutorial by the way ^__^

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

DejiNyucu In reply to X-Cold-Hearted-X [2005-11-16 12:27:49 +0000 UTC]

it's just a normal default 3 pix hard brush, shape dynamics and smoothing checked, in shape dynamics everything put at 0% and size jitter set to pen pressure and the rest set to off

erm, when im doing the stroking of the path, only anchor points are painted with the selected brush size-and color.
how can i do it properly, like you did?
