I have no Idea how many people know this but its a life saver

Start off with a crappy scanned/phone taken picture like so

Mess around with the SAI Filters, I usually go color deepen all the way to the left then mess with brightness and contrast until I find a good balance I like, then to top it off with a copied layer on multiply to make the lines darker

Click what I boxed off and the magic has already happened

you now are left with a clean lineart layer that you can color underneath to your liking : 0 Hell you can even color your lines however you want as well for a colored lineart

Colour pallets are such a pain urgh...

glow effects
adding colors to grayscale paintings
foreshortening ( coil )
foreshortening ( perspective )
clipping group (lines)
clipping group (colors)
dramatic lighting ( GOOD )

So the last two boys have been characters from an RP me and my friend have been doing and I really adore their characters... >=< so lol just gonna spam you. His name is Amity, his boyfriends name is called Dar as short form from Dareios and their story is a long and still open one, created by us, the writers haha. #art #owncharacter

why does my digital art look like I’m 10 years old? ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh this artblock is driving me mad. There is nothing that I draw at the moment that pleases me and it’s making me crazy. :/ I know digital is hard to grasp and everything in art is all about practise but lately it’s just been frustrating me no matter how hard I try it never looks like I want it to
