photoshop elements tutorial part 2 (lines)

[KawaiiKitsuneChan908]

and exactly WHY DOES THIS VIDEO HAVE SO MANY THUMBS DOWN?!

[TheGothicGamer]

I habe Photoshop Cs4 aber ich sehe deiner "tutorial" fern weil es ist sehr gut! Please excuse the german, i don't speak it well even though it's my 3rd year.... ^_^'

[raininess]

Don't worry, your German isn't that bad.

If it's easier for you, just comment in English next time ^-^

And thank you, I'm glad you like my tutorial.

[xellcocoa999]

wow, that method seems so much better than mine :O ive been using the shape tool over and over until my lineart was finished and it takes so long Dx but i guess your method wont work to well with me either cuz i dont have a tablet :(

[raininess]

ow, you're using shapes? I understand why that takes forever. But with a mouse, yeah it makes sense. It's really hard to get a decent line with a mouse. I admire your patience.

[xellcocoa999]

thanks xD i just work with what i got- i only have a mouse so i just swallow my pride and get it done

[mayuwolf]

quick question, when some people animate, they sometimes change there line colors like from black to red. How do you do that or can you on this version??

[raininess]

I'll make a few screenshots 'cause it's hard to explain with just words - I'll send you a personal message ^^

[HproductionsL]

[DMizuho]

This tutorial is really cute ;o

[raininess]

yay, worship ^.^

I'm glad I could help.

[raininess]

lol, why would I be offended by being compared to one of the x-men.

I never heard his original voice. I looked for a scene, but I only found clips set to songs. :(

I made a CS3 tutorial when I was asked to. I downloaded a trial version back then (30 days usage).

But it basically works like Photoshop Elements I'd say. Some minor changes, but the basics are the same.

[raininess]

Is my accent that strong?

I don't hear my accent myself, so I'm wondering if it sounds like those German accents people do on their parodies.

[raininess]

not exactly, but you were close.

I said "I wish you a nice day, too"

[raininess]

XD Ich wünsche dir auch einen guten Tag.

You knew it? did you recognize the accent?

[Breewilly]

How do you make your line art smooth?

[raininess]

I use the eraser tool a lot to cut ugly edges and things like that. I also work with a graphic tablet instead of a mouse what makes it way easier to get good lines.

But I admit that sometimes I have to draw the same line over and over again until I get a result I can accept.

[sakabatomaster]

you have the cutest accent*bubly eyes* Though this DID help alot =D

[raininess]

aww, thanks ^^

[AnimePikaGirl]

love the little characters and ur accet this will really help me thx!

[raininess]

no problem.

I'm glad you like it ^^

[tippi4evah]

so if thats photoshop elements and has an outlining/pen tool, then photoshop elements 6 must have it too, right?

because i cant find mine...

[raininess]

The version I use doesn't have a pen tool. So I have to use the brush tool for the lines. It's not really an outlining tool, it's rather suitable for doing the coloring part, but if you use a dark color (black in most cases) it works for the lines as well.

[tippi4evah]

i dont think my has a pen tool either ^ ^;

i havent got my tablet yet, so im uneasy about my finished product. yep i only have one :(

i asked because your lines are soo smooth, so i thought you had a pen tool

[raininess]

when you draw in a large size and shrink the result afterwards, the lines look smoother. I also use the rubber to sharpen the edges. and of course if I don't like how the lines came out I do them over and over again. lol, always looking for perfection...

[tippi4evah]

i dont think i have a rubber tool, but i do gave a sharpening tool

[raininess]

Oh, I have the 2.0 version of photoshop. I guess many things have changed in the newer versions.

[tippi4evah]

lol i guess so ^ ^;

i still have no clue how to do half the things on it...

[raininess]

just experiment with the features for a while and you'll find your own way to use the program ^^

[MaDnessIV]

How do you get your lines so straight and smooth? Mine are all bumpy...

[raininess]

Do you use a mouse or a graphic tablet?

[MaDnessIV]

I use a mouse, is that my problem?

[raininess]

It's really tough to get nice lines with a mouse. When using a tablet you can employ some kind of pencil what makes it easier to draw.

[raininess]

^^ I'm glad it helps. I wanted it to be easy understandable and yet informative. I've seen tutorials that expect you to already have experience what makes it hard to follow it if you're a beginner. I tried to avoid that so that everyone could actually learn how to work with the program.
