EDIT: There is not going to be a part two. You know why? Because this is old, so I forgot about it, and now I'm too lazy to make a part two. xD;


I made this for . I hope it helps anyone who uses it with Photoshop. Sorry it has so much text and that the tutorial is lame. Anyway, the picture references come from one of my drawings called Hide + Seek.

THE GRAMMAR AND SPELLING ERRORS I MADE ARE DRIVING ME CRAZY!

Good job at the pacing and steps! But for a suggestion, do you happen to know how to put the lineart on its own separate transparent layer? It really helps, and it eliminates the usage of the multiply layer and reveal a broader range of saturated/nonsaturated colors. [plus you can use the magic wand, oooo]

ember-snow In reply to Tiuni [2007-10-06 00:12:32 +0000 UTC]

Thanks! No, actually, I don't. Do you copy and paste the lineart into a layer and set that layer on Multiply?

Tiuni In reply to ember-snow [2007-10-06 00:57:23 +0000 UTC]

Uh, no actually. Then that justs dilutes the lineart. xD You have to work with channels; do you know what they are?

Lol, okay. xDD Here's the tutorial I used when I first learned it:

This method is a LIFESAVER. Not only it eliminates the diluted colors of multiply, it also makes coloring a lot FASTER because you get to use the magic wand tool.

It's kind of hard to understand, since the images are in Japanese... D:

Whoops! I forgot to tell you to look at these comments ON the tutorial. They give an easier way of doing it without that filter:

It's kind of hard to follow when I don't have Photoshop on my mom's computer (at her workplace).

Ooh, I see. D: Well, it's for future reference, if you want to use it at your disposal. You rock at photoshop, I just wanted to make it a little easier for you. :3
