# it's a very quick process
and helps to turn my crude tracing into half-decent line art with the minimum off effort.

I'm going to do another picture like the Watchmen one but this time I'm going to record video and screenshots to create a 'tutorial' ( more a "this is what i do, some technique might be useful to you" than any kind of tutorial, as I'm no expert nor do I work traditionally ) for tattyworld and that will include sketch to line-art in that.

# NP.
As I say it gets very quick once you get used to it. I now have action scripts set up with my 3 main brushes on F2, F3, F4 and now all I do is draw a quick path and press a function key, this strokes the path with the line I want and deletes the work path ready for the next line, nice and quick.
It's a technique that would work very well for your sketches if you wanted to move on into line and colour with them.

# yes, I was thinking the same.
I'll look into the technique over the next couple of days, and wait with bated breath for your tutorial :)
I'm normally not neat and tidy with the sketches on purpose, but sometimes it's really because I can't be arsed being tidy.
