Description
I use a slightly different technique nowadays - I made that in to a tutorial too, right here : fav.me/ddfyvmv
--------------------------------
thing I've been doing a lot lately with my art, its very simple but in my opinion very effective
Thought I would share it !
I used SAI2 for this, but I think it's also possible for other art programs, as long as overlay is a layer mode
Β
note works better with thinner line art - if you have any tranparent spots after this , create a layer underneath everything and colour it in ~

if you're using sai its likely because you used a softer brush

maybe you did something wrong then

I don't know, you can just try it out x) ? I think I did hear people say it works but I'm not sure anymore.

For some reason, I can't get it right. The colours are just not blending! Do I have to paint underneath the line art?
π: 0 β©: 1
if all the base colours are underneath the lineart, and in the same folder then it should work for the blending

Thank you so much for replying!

Do you know what other names art programs would call "overlay"? I use medibang, but I can't seem to find the overlay option for the layer.
π: 0 β©: 1
Overlay is in there, its just under divide

I use medibang on android

Hey there, im havin a small problem and i dont really know how to fix it and was wondering if you knew how ??
It just makes the line art really uneven and choppy i guess and idk V:
π: 0 β©: 2
You just have some coloring gaps is all!
π: 0 β©: 1
nah nah i wasnt talking about the gap in the neck
π: 0 β©: 1
i think kittin is right,,Β there are spots in the drawing that you haventΒ colored, so they show up choppy and such
π: 0 β©: 1
No it has to do with how small my canvas was tbh
All of the parts in my drawing were colored in ;;
π: 0 β©: 2
It has nothing to do with the canvas. For this trick to work, you need to have VERY tidy coloring. The colors must reach under the lineart, so if you color by hand and the coloring is choppy, so will the lineart if you will use this trick.
If you look at the original picture shown here, once the lineart's opacity is lowered, the art looks like a lineless, neat, tidy artwork. If you remove the lineart on yours and it doesn't look tidy, this trick won't work.

If you zoom in on my art it looks kinda sloppy too

(Sorry that it isn't a thumb I'm on my phone haha)
And if you're talking about the neck part, just go underneath with the base colour, or to do every spot in one go, put all your layers in a folder, flatten the image and copy it, undo the flatten part so you get your layers back, and copy the flat image underneath all the layers and turn it a dark colour or something (see what works best for your drawing)
Also I really like your drawing even though i cant see it all haha, it looks cute!

Try turning the black lineart layer to Overlay instead of the light purple layer : )

Very useful tip! Ive been trying different methods with no avail .Thanks! c:

It works , but it's just some places like under lineart is actually empty spaces and it makes colours leaving the spots. I'll try figure out how to fix.

I have a question.Β Which lineart layer should be on top, the black or coloured one?
π: 0 β©: 1
"The layer should be on top of the light purple layer"
π: 0 β©: 1
Silly me...
So I tried it myself, and the colours came out too bright and saturated for me.Β Maybe Overlay mode works differently in Clip Studio, I don't know.Β But I did use it as inspiration for picking my own line colours.Β You'll see an example soon enough...

If the character is regularly that color, could you use a preset color to sketch besides black? That could save a few steps.
Added to my favorites - you get all the kudos - it's good to know this color/opacity trick!

You mean already do the line art in the light purple ? The lineart for the overlay layer is black, so you would have to make that one black again,, one of the two line arts is gonna change colour so it takes the same amount of time (though Channing the colour of the line art takes 2 seconds with a big brush)
If that's what you mean, that is
