LOL..I know..i'm awful...but what do you think about keeping the lineart?..should I?..or just go with the norm for me..?

yeah keep it bmw

you should have put her in that frou frou frilly dress

wow

Keep it on a separate layer until you've decided. That way you can go either way when you've finished with the coloring. I love the beautiful twist in the torso. The arm and neck/clavicle/shoulders look really good, too. (P.S if you don't know how to color underneath your line art: Set the line art layer to 'Multiply', then color on a layer beneath it.)

Thanks for the comments everybody....I know how to do it Teapot...but I appreciate your help nontheless..when I first started oekaki, I always kept my lineart, it's just been a long time since I kept it....actually the first picture I ever did here was with lineart... http://2draw.net/view/90436/

I'd prefer it without, your work is fantastic without and has become your trademark but you need to do what is best for you, I'm just saying what I think now you need to do what you want...I don't think anything I just said will help you make up your mind :)

You drew :D. I always love all the details you put in your drawings.

It'll be good either way..go go! :)

teapot: layers have transparency by default, so there's no need to use multiply (plus it won't work if you want to do colored line art)

They don't have transparency if the artist used a white fill before they started drawing the lines, though.

When I do it, I usuallu put my lineart on layer 2..go under with the color on layer 1, and then get the background in on layer 0...If I need more than that then I just add a layer..but usually three layers works very well for me..

No wonder I get lost in my drawings, I usually have 6-10 layers. I need to draw on here again to practice what you all preach.

I do my drawings on one layer, unless i'm doing a collab.

Sometimes I'll do an experiment for some effect and use a separate layer so I don't screw up what I've done so far, but mostly I like to work on one layer, too. It's hard to make your work look integrated when you keep the layers separate. I've done production projects in Photoshop using 15 or 20 layers. I have to name them all of I'd go mad.

I actually considered green hair..I may go with that...thanks Suntan...

I usually use one or two layers, maybe some more for effects... I know people that average a hundred layers per drawing (in photoshop) and once I did a collab and when I received the psd I was just like, holy shit how the hell do you keep track of all this?? And they were unnamed layers, too. x_x

Green hair would look nice, imo, though I can also see pink.

The most layers I ever used was 6..I hate using photoshop, so I don't..lol....this picture here is all on one layer..

teapot: there's no reason to use fill white on lascaux. there is an hidden white background layer on all drawings.

Saucy lip is a perfect description, I noticed that right away. The colors are wonderful...it came out great :D

Is it me, or is it funny that someone is trying to tell the maker of a program how his own program works?

great art bmw

I changed the title...
