Yes, I made a new tutorial! This time it's about how scanners work and how I edit drawings in Photoshop.


I know I said I wouldn't make any more tutorials, but I got soooooooooo many questions about this, and it's something I won't be putting in my artbook anyway, so I've been working on this all day long.

And now I'm tired... :yawn:

Oh well, hope it's useful :)

I guess you missed something yeah ;D

The light of the scanner reflects against the drawing, which makes the drawing (or any kind of scanned image) appear lighter than the original.

So in order to make the scanned file look as deep as the original drawing, I first scan it without changing any settings, and then fix the contrast in Photoshop :)
