You can change the mode in Photoshop before you bring it in to ArtRage.<br /><br />#2 When you import your drawing, ArtRage will put it on the lowest layer and give it an opaque paper background...<br /><br />...To be able to see through your linework to the color paint below, DO THIS:<br /><br />On your imported Drawing layer, go to "Edit Paper Settings" and near the bottom of the options dial the "paper opacity" (NOT the layer opacity) to 0%Shermhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03234494715024292722noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7573514568417810856.post-75582950798869211012009-10-22T08:47:37.291-07:002009-10-22T08:47:37.291-07:00Mr. Cohen, got a question for you.

When you finish your line coloring in Photoshop, what file format are you saving it as in order to import it into ArtRage without a white background (like a jpg)... I guess as a transparent layer?? I've tried just saving as a psd and ArtRage won't import it. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Also, thanks for the post, it totally opened up my creative world!!Scott Johnsonhttp://www.gobrowncow.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7573514568417810856.post-35918276581277013672009-10-15T23:08:16.629-07:002009-10-15T23:08:16.629-07:00Hey Sherm, forgive the semi-ot post but I found th...Hey Sherm, forgive the semi-ot post but I found the one and only Superkatt Cartoon on YT:<br /><br />http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cRiRL8KpjOo&feature=related<br /><br />I know you love Dan Gordon's work; I can't swear this is him (zero credits), but the animation in this one is terrific. And the story apparently is derived from the comics (although I'd have to find a Giggle #9 to be sure).Pathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05060349239296193385noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7573514568417810856.post-61553043558031152452009-10-14T08:28:14.680-07:002009-10-14T08:28:14.680-07:00Just wanted to thank you for these videos. I'...Just wanted to thank you for these videos. I've used Illustrator for inking several times, but every time I did, I cursed more than I inked. You pointed out quite a few features I knew had to be in the program, but never figured out on my own, and also, I think just watching someone else using the thing for inking helped me a lot. Thanks again!Erik J.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7573514568417810856.post-50340097666792745422009-10-13T02:26:17.316-07:002009-10-13T02:26:17.316-07:00wowzers!!! i just clicked this playlist and follow...wowzers!!! i just clicked this playlist and followed through to the art rage stuff and dang! it's really great!<br /><br />i really like inking with a brush on paper, but when i do digital inks i find myself working in flash just because it's what i'm animating in for work and using all day. this illustrator to photoshop process is really interesting and it seems like it gets great results! art rage is amazing too! i just was fiddling around with the free version and if i keep dabbling i'll definitely get the full.<br /><br />i was curious though, why aren't you coloring your lines right in illustrator? is it because it's treating each stroke as a vector so where there's overlap on a stroke that might be different colors in the final things would look wonky? something like that?<br /><br />thanks again for posting this series great work!!!:: smo ::https://www.blogger.com/profile/02948005244845740011noreply@blogger.com
