Anyone else fucking hate putting in the base colors in their digital linework? Shit's by far the most tedious part of making digital art.
I'm currently doing the "Color the outlines and use the fill tool" to color them. But there must be a faster way to do this, right?

I use the wand tool since i make sure my lines are clean

To color the lines, I just use a big ass brush and clipping.

Yeah, cut all outlines with slicing tool and paint on the first layer

Why not use the lasso tool, or pen tool -> fill?

The Multifill Plugin does it for you, then you can change the colors (they are picked randomly). It isn't perfect by any mean but it is an alternative to using the fill tool until your sanity erodes.

>> No.4038487

what program do you use?? Both SAI and CSP have a bucket tool that goes under the lines and gives a clean look no problem.

>> No.4038632

I find it very boring too and I feel like it takes WAY TOO MUCH time even though it's relatively fast as it can be on procreate. I don't think there's any faster way than the way I do.

This is why Kim Jung Gi started doing it straight on ink.

My hope is neuralink. Drawing with my mind would be awesome. If there is ever such thing as a way to draw with the mind we will be GODS, anons.

This is maximum fucking stupid.

Just use the 'Pencil' tool for your linework and paint bucket in the flats. Too many people don't realize that the 'Pencil' tool exists in programs like Photoshop.

Wow, you guys are all so incredibly stupid I can't believe it.

Trying to select things over and over inside the lines, drawing inside lines, holy shit. Are you guys fucking 12? Have you ever tried using your fucking brain while drawing and try to find EASY and EFFECTIVE ways of cutting time?

Literally put any random color over the canvas on a new layer. Then hide it, and select outside the character/object you want colored with a magic wand tool or absolutely anything that can detect blank, white space against your black lines. Show the layer again and Ctrl+X the outside color. Boom, you're fucking done. Just go around your character and make sure you delete any outside color that wasn't cut by the wand.

You fools make me sad. This is basic stuff.

If insulting people gets them to look at something that provides them with helpful information, I'll do it. I'm amazed it worked so easily on you. But honestly I simply can't stand the idea of tracing over lines with color, it hurts my fucking soul, I don't want that fate on anyone

Use Sai's magic wand tool. It gets 99% of all pixels in lineart.

Somehow it's better at detecting antialias pixels than photoshop's magic wand.

Literally every modern drawing software has a feature that fills under your outlines automatically.
