In this series, we’ll learn how to color black and white lineart. The first step is to flat your piece. Flatting separates the objects in your composition by color making it easier to select specific areas to color.
The flatting process can be a bit meticulous and slightly boring, but proper flatting is essential for coloring line art. In this first part, we demonstrate how to flat an illustration by hand. Next time, we’ll look at a very helpful plugin that will automate much of this process.
