again, thank you very much.
This is the easiest to follow tutorial that I've found and works the best for what I need. Thank you very much!
your tutorial is awesome, but i've a question, when you say photoshop 6 you mean CS6? cause i keep trying method three but it ain't happening ahhh >_< if you look at my last work see how frustrating it is.
When acaraluv says 7.0 she's talking about the 7.0 update of Photoshop CS2. This tutorial was made in 2005, along with Adobe Photoshop CS2, which I think is the model this author was using at the time. I've tried method 3 as well, and it didn't turn out well for me, I suppose that's the Photoshop update's fault (I'm using CS6) and that they've changed their layout throughout the updates.
All in all, a lot of people may be experiencing the same problem you are, but that's because method 3 isn't able to be used in the same method that acaraluv used, since she's using a completely different version of photoshop than we are.
I'm not sure how to use method 3 in CS6, or if it's even possible, but I hope this answers your situation!
Currently my Sai decided to crash and I can't replace it at the moment and I think I don't have to mention I do not have a tablet at the moment..
So a big thank you!
The photoshop disable me to use brush to do any edit on the layer where the curve line is.
Mine always looked chunky 3:
That is the prettiest of lineart, I never found out how to do that until now XD
thank you for making this!
this is very helpful
I love you for this!!!!
I was doing linearts with one line at the time, then delete, then new path all over and it took me for ever to finish...
Thaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaank you so much for that MagiC trick
this is how i learned lines with the pen tool
