so lotsa people wanna know how I make my lineart so smooth with a mouse. there's really no secret, I just use the pen tool. xD

I hope this helps. I learned how to use the pen tool using a few other tutorials, so some of the techniques in here might be similar to other tutorials'

enjoy. If you have any questions about this tutorial, feel free to post them and i will help you.
I hope this is understandable <3

Gah. I used to use the pen tool but I never knew about the similate pressure thing. ><; Now I wish my Photoshop 7.0 is working. The pen tool isn't the same in version 6.0. -sniffs- ><;

It works for 6.0 excpet for methods two and three. You cannot simulate the pressure in 6.0. Really nice tutorial though, I found it very helpful.
