Coloring Lineart – Part 2, Auto Flatting


Friday, January 22nd, 2010 at 9:28 am by Jamie

We return to flatting, but this time we’ll use a nifty plug-in workflow to speed up the process. For this tutorial, you’ll need to pick up the multifill and flatting plug-ins found at http://bpelt.com.

This can save you loads of time flatting your lineart but will only work if your lineart is bitmap. This isn’t such a great workflow if you’re coloring just pencils. But for inked work, this will make your life so much easier.

    Hey man, I really liked these tutorials, though I have to say I didn’t really like the auto flatting method too much.
    I think doing it by hand is a fun method.

    Flatting by hand is more fun when you start. But when you have to color a 22 page book in a week, autoflatting will help tremendously!
