I Have No Idea How Many People Know This But Its A Life Saver

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

scrappy doodle!! been practicing male features and... getting better? I hope so 😢😥😥😥

sooooooooooooooo this is like my first ever finished original digital art... I’m not really happy with it, but I’ll post it anyway to see the progress I’ll be doing ^^ 

art cheats

hello i am here today to not lose track of the art cheats i have discovered over the years. what i call art cheat is actually a cool filter/coloring style/way to shade/etc. that singlehandedly makes art like 20 times better

80’s anime style

glitch effect

glow effects

adding colors to grayscale paintings

foreshortening ( coil )

foreshortening ( perspective )

clipping group (lines)

clipping group (colors)

dramatic lighting ( GOOD )

shading metal

lighting faces

that is all for today, do stay tuned as i am always hunting for cool shit like this

more practise on my wacom, it’s tedious and it’s taking me ages... but I think I’m slowly getting the hang of things. I always tend to overdo stuff so I decided to try and keep it simple, one layer for each colour... any good?

Tagged by @definitelynotadulting you get to see the full glory ☄of my lockscreen, a Stargate fanart, my homescreen, a landscape pic (#aesthetic I know 😂), the last song I listened to, Amaranth by Nightwish and an old Winter Holiday selfie bc I rarely and badly selfie… Thanks for the tag though!!

Feel tagged, everyone! Especially @galaxytalker @becausethegalaxytoldme @knightofbloodofficial @librikolibri But only if you’re up to it, it would be lovely though!
