Description
as promised...Advanced Channel Marking, simply "advanced" because it allows you to reuse your already done shading of traditonal sketches, drawings, inked images, etc. just try it
I LOVE this technique... it's so fast and easy to use
and it allows you to overwork sketches digital, even color wise like BAM 
Any questions? Just ask
ADD-on:
Images used in this tutorial, resp. colored using this method:

I've always wondered how to do this - Thanks!

So what program do you use, adobe photoshop?

Awesome, thanks - can you tell me if there is a difference between adobe photoshop 7.0 and below(or above) and photoshop CS2, CS3, etc?
๐: 0 โฉ: 1
hmm.. it's been a while since I used 7.0, CS2 and up offers a own filter preview screen, which the lower versions didn't have. I think Channels are only supported on CS versions up as well, also a lot of brush settings, for example, multi colored brushes
between CS2 and CS3, I can't really say much since I only use(d) the CS2 version so far

Sorry for all the questions lol but what do channels help with? I've heard of them, but I use photoshop elements 3.0 which doesn't have as many tools as regualar photoshop, but you can still do a lot with it. It doesn't have channels. It does have filter preview screens though...so yay =]

Audi! 
-cough-
Awesome tutorial C8 Pitty I no longer have channels. I have to do everything by hand in Photoshop Elements 8X
๐: 0 โฉ: 1
hmm, Elements doesn't come up with a channel menue? No idea, might be hidden since it's made for photo editing and this trick is a photo-editing trick
Audi distracts...

I actually read and looked through their help files, t'ain't nothin on channels in Elements 8X
Audi's are all the rage these days

That is GENIUS.
Yet another way to color! I'm gonna have to use this -- I daw pencil all the time but I have the hardest time coloring it. I'm gonna have to use this when I get home.

Channels are your FRIEND! 
I really love to use that, and it's so fast, doesn't even take 2 minutes to prepare your sketch, drawing, whatever

How perfect. I've used it and it's definitaly fun! xD

I've always used the Colorize filter to make my already shaded pencil lines a color, but this method might be worth a try. Channels have always confused me - I really know nothing about them - so this made it a lot easier to understand. Great tutorial! 
๐: 0 โฉ: 1
oh wow, colorize? sounds like a lot of work 
The biggest advance of the channel marking thing is that it takes like... 2 minutes?
