Description Because some o' you were curious. And this is just my lazy-ass way of going about it, not the definitive technique. I'm sure there are better ways.

Any questions, feel free to ask.

I seriously just watched 4 different tutorials and couldnt get any of them to work. Yours was super simple and worked in like 2 minutes flat... kind of wish i had found this tutorial first would have saved me a little time. Thanks for the help your awesome

A lot simpler than the brush speedline tutorial I just found (though that one might be the more versatile one--haven't tried either YET). Thanks!

I almost started drawing every single one of the circled speedlines myself, would look really terrible I think. Didn't know Photoshop has such functions. With that it is really easy to make speedlines now. Thanks for that.Β

Shannyeight [2015-05-01 19:42:09 +0000 UTC]

I've done it, but I noticed that the lines are kind of blurry...is there any way to make the lines a little more solid/"crisp"/sharp?

Pandadrake In reply to Shannyeight [2015-06-01 21:50:53 +0000 UTC]

You can start them on a canvas with a higher resolution and use a larger brush size. Otherwise you can try going to filter > sharpen and messing with those options. They tend to make the lines look more "pixely", but I find that it doesn't matter much overall if you work large enough.

I also tend to prefer very high contrast black-and-white work though, so that might just be me.

Shannyeight In reply to Pandadrake [2015-06-03 02:48:41 +0000 UTC]

Yeah I tried using the sharpen feature, and didnt like the results. I'm still looking for a way to get those crisp lines; it's just gonna take some time to figure something out.

ooooOOoooOOoooo I come from the future where I needed speed lines but couldn't find an easy tut for them. I'm wondering if the name for these changed or something since all the tutorials I found where from... well... 2007 like this one. Β Thanks for making it, now I have the power of speed lines in my grasp lol.Β
