Description
Yay another tutorial! 
I needed a break from my up-and-coming surprise, and after receiving a good few requests as to how I do lineart, I did this for all those curious folk! 
I do hope it helps, my Photoshop likes to do wierd things with my pictures when I make them smaller and bigger! 
But anyways! Let me know if it's really bad quality-wise and I'll go and fix them pictures!

how do you make the line like that? my lines always look really fuzzy XP

I know this probably sounds stupid, but maybe your brush isn't a hard edge brush. When you click on brush (in photoshop) Up on the left top part of the screen it will have the preview of what the brush stroke will look like. Click on the arrown which will bring a drop down menu of brushes. Click on a brush where the circle has a hard egde rather than fuzzy. There you go.
Hope my rambling helped

I'm using Photoshop Elements 6.0, but any version of Photoshop will work, an probably Coral Painter too!

Adobe Photoshop Elements? You don't know it? Goodness! It's an illustrating program, like a very fancy version of Paint, and it's similar to Corel Painte...

Can you do more in it then you can in Photoshop CS3? That's what I've been using for all my work
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Of course you may! Any illustrating program will work that uses layers!

I've also been wondering, with lineart, how do you know where to put the shadows on the horse?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Well, it all depends on where the light is cus it affects the shadows and where they fall, and also the muscles of the horse stand up a bit, so there are a few shadows there. I've always learnt from looking at photos of horses, its the best way!

Haha oh goodness, I totally forgot to add that in! For the sketches, ususally 8 to 10px, and then for the actual lineart I use 2px brush! Hope that helps!
