[animecatgirlcutie001]

i can't make my lines smaller or bigger! D:

[KibitokaiChronicles]

can u make Curves in GIMP?

[brenda1298]

i think i figured out how she made the lines look more "nicer"

you need to have your lineart on a transparent layer

click on layer>transparency>add to selection,

then you go to select>to path,

when thats finished you click selct>none,

create a new transparent layer, then go to paths and click the "paint along the path button.

If you want i can make a tutorial

[CrazyScrubs]

Yes, please, can you please tut? thanks! :D

[Inuyashacrazy1234]

my tablet sux, when i use GIMP it like lags slightly, and when i draw it like the the drawing thingy isn't centered on the cusor, anybody know how to fix this? its a wacom Bamboo.

[OxWolfyxO]

i donno but srry~ Does your bamboo fun pen tip grind down ? cuz i donno what to do because my pen tip it gone O.o?

[EmpoweredOnna]

I have a wacom bamboo, and I figured out that to keep mine from lagging when using gimp I need to open up gimp before I plug in my tablet. As long as gimp is loaded first and then my tablet plugged in, no more lag time. Hope that helps!

Hi,

4 Start ****

[Bubuphluffypaws]

Gah! had another look and no, he doesn't use 'draw in ink' although if you wanted, I guess you could.

[Bubuphluffypaws]

Oh yeah, to get the inked look, I think he uses the "draw in ink" tool which makes thicker or thinner lines depending on the speed which he moves his pointing device.

[Bubuphluffypaws]

I've figured out to the part where he goes and does layer > transparency > add to selection

after that, select > to path

but this is where im slightly confused, after he does that, it makes a vector representation of his drawing which then he inks by perhaps using the stroke path tool. I've gotten this far and im not sure if i have missed a step but atm i've been able to recreate it with varying results. Anyone willing to try and improve on this?

[chobitchobit11]

What did you press to make the lines look like.....how do i say this.....it was inked by hand

[xSkillzx]

How did you clean up the lines? I've always wanted to know. At 3:34 the lines turn very nice.

[Lamar154]
