Description ...in Photoshop.

I found a lot of references to this little trick online, but no tutorials, so here is one.

Download for full-size.

Please note: this only works for colored construction lines and black inks! If you do your underdrawing in graphite pencil and your inking in blue marker, you'll have to figure out something else.

The art is from [link] ... I made the tutorial as I was going along, fixing it up.

Enjoy!

Great work!
I've only really recently started drawing in red of blue mech. pencil, and the previous tutes I've seen for cleaning it up didn't give me as good results as what your tute gave me.

Thanks a lot!!

thanks for the tip! I do a lot of my drawing with red pencil and then clean it over with graphite.

The font is too small. It's hard to read it.

Try downloading it; it should be big enough then. If not let me know!

Oh wow. This'll come in handy for me, if I ever color other deviants' works. It's very helpful and very easy to use.

Thanks for the tutorial!
