A few people had asked me about my outlines, so I thought I'd make a tutorial. :)

I'm no expert at Photoshop but I know what works for me. Hopefully you'll learn some good stuff from this (or develop a better method--in which case please share it with everyone! :D), but if not at least I had fun making the tutorial. >C

I tried to keep it simple as possible, and use lots of pictures! >D

If you have any questions please feel free to ask me. C:

That is very helpful! I've been trying to find a good lineart tutorial for a while. :)
Also, a question. How did you get the lineart to turn a different color in the final drawing?

Just lock the transparency for that layer (it's a little square box thing on the Layers Pallet, and you click it to check it), and then you can fill that layer with any color and BOOM. Pretty lines. :D

I saw you commenting on one on kumanor's pieces, and i though i should check your art out! And i have to say this is the most useful line tutorial i have ever seen, it beats all those vector ones by far!! Thankyou for doing it!!
+Fav for sure!!

Also this tutorial is like a piece of art in itself! Its so colourful and happy =3

P.s. I really like the way you say that lineart should be part of the art too, i have a tendedcy to rush my lineart, this gave me a... shove along in the right direction Thankyou <33

Aww! Thank you! :D Yeah, I really get bored with outlines, but I think when you rush em they just look...blah. So it's good to give them the credit they deserve. :3
