You can have the same result with a mouse, the pen tool is very easy to use with the mouse, you just need to have a scanner in order to scan your sketch

Em-Silverflake In reply to Lina01 [2009-10-10 01:54:30 +0000 UTC]

OK, thanks! I have a scanner! So I can actually just draw the image in pencil then scan it and continue like in your tutorial?

I cant seem to find what FFFoD6, or any of the colors, since i cant find where it shows on photoshop, is it because i have photoshop cs3?

By the way, great tutorial anyways it helped more than any other ive seen...

sorry for the late reply, to find the color you just have to make a double click on the color square of your tools menu, then the color palette will pop-up and there you can enter numbers in the bottom field (like this [link] instead of 96c3da)

anime-lover31 [2008-04-16 08:59:58 +0000 UTC]

your tutorial is great~!
there's just one thing I can't understand.. it's the part with the line art..
When I trace the lines with the pen, the skin color fills up the space..
and in the path it says "skin vector mask"..
I don't know where the work path is and I can't click the circle below
Sorry for the trouble.. Hope I can have your answer! thanks!^^

Lina01 In reply to Akamaru2112 [2008-05-27 15:04:50 +0000 UTC]

select the layer you want to change opacity, and in the top right corner of the layer menu there is a box with the % of opacity. Sorry for the late reply

Lina01 In reply to MizuiroChi [2008-01-30 08:35:14 +0000 UTC]

thanks I'm not really good at background XD, for this one it's only a gradient + crappy clouds done with a brush at low opacity.
I don't really understand what you mean by "how yu did not disturb the self-image" (sorry my english is not good at all v_v

Lina01 In reply to MizuiroChi [2008-01-30 14:02:45 +0000 UTC]

aaah! it's because it's on a different layers, the background layers are under the character layers ^_^!

that's strange, are you sure you were not working on the same layer?

MizuiroChi In reply to Lina01 [2008-01-30 16:03:30 +0000 UTC]

nope, well i use cs2, i take another layer and color on, it kinda looks transparently, i take color pink on the diff layer and the character looks "invisible" or transparent sorta

does it matter if you use photoshop element 6, because I couldn't find photoshop 7.0

Lina01 In reply to NarutoxHinatafan [2008-01-24 08:15:12 +0000 UTC]

Unfortunatly photoshop elements is not very good compared to photoshop 7/cs/cs2/... A lot of options are missing >_<, I definetly recommend you to use the complete version of photoshop from 7 to CS3
