      Just try image trace on illustrator with ignoring white.. so much more possibilities, never worry about resolutions and image quality, cuz your design is vector. Photoshop is only good for web, prove me wrong..

    I've watch ton and tons of digital painting tutorial from minutes to hours,but none of it has shown the simplest concept of removing the lineart from the drawings in Photoshop,and for that you have my thanks.

    Unreal tutorial. So many out there on 'recolouring line art' but none if you have a black sketch you want to turn white, without the background. Followed your tutorial and then added a colour overlay in the layer style panel to achieve what I needed. You're a star.

    Have been using this and your sped up coloring vid for months, fantastic stuff dude, also taught me a ton of keyboard shortcuts i didn't know which has sped up my process a lot. This method of getting lineart off a page is far superior to the method i had been using for years. Thank you for the rad tutorials, love your work!

    you have no idea how much easier you have made my life. ive watched alot of digital art coloring tutorials and every artist will color this area in with a brush and for me it was alway so time consuming and tedious. you just made it so much easier . THANK YOU! BLESS YOU for sharing! i just subscribed!

    @missasyan Před 3 lety +1

    This is so helpful, I've tried downloading preset actions for this, and though they had plenty of actions put in, it deleted a good part of the grey shading in manga panels.
    This one, you just record a few actions, and even some of the slight grey doesn't get removed and has the right opacity, it's really perfect--thank you so much.
    Very helpful, I am now going to have happy manga colouring times.

    Wow! Yes the best tutorial on here. I'm so glad for this. So I created a drawing from sketch and place it in photoshop. Realized watching this video and your full tutorial video on doing your line art that I missed this step. I thought you guys somehow do this at the end where you just delete the background and plop it on a mockup and print. Nope. This helped me a lot. Makes sense. This is great. So when and if I were to sketch in here. I just apply the same tactics. Takes forever but it can still be done.

    One thing to mention that seems important, before starting the separation and for later also the coloring, it would be useful to go to a very high resolution as pixels get bleached out by playing with the contrast!

    It took a few tries to grok this, but I finally did... the disappearing image when using the mask made my brain disappear for a moment. But follow the steps...and voila...now to see if I can play with these sorts of images in Indesign. I have been using photoshop for decades, really, and never HAD to do this before. ... photo retouching, yes, but not fool with simple line art . Doh. And only a few times had to use the pen tool. Now to upgrade my skillzzz... Thank you so much.
