Do you use the pen tool to lineart, or is your digital linearting this clean naturally ; u ;

if by pen tool, you mean the thing that you can use to edit lines after you draw them, then nope

But how do you draw your lines? Just free hand?

I make quick strokes... and if it's not perfect, I do it over until it is!

I know! And aren't they all just fabulous? Much better than your art. 
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
So technically you're saying that NOTHING is better than my art?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah totally. I mean take this piece [link] for instance. Look how ugly it is. No-one would want a kiss from her.
Hehe You're actually one of my favourite artists and I'd be happy if I could draw 1/100 as good as you.

That icon is win.
Well I'll never be able to tell if you don't submit anything!

Ok then I'll try and start drawing soon. I need to get a scanner though so maybe by the end of the year I might have something up. It wouldn't be anything fancy though lol.

Yush! x3
(I still don't get the whole layer thing, since I have no tablet; but for Sai I forgot how you do the layer thingie to color separately, without coloring over the lineart) help? -fail- >w<;
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
8D; you don't need a tablet for layers...
There should be a thing in the lower right that says "Layers" and you do "new layer" ... I can take a screenshot later, I'm watching Wheel of Fortune right now.
