How do you get the lines out of your physical drawings so cleanly like digitally
first I make sure I took a well lit photo of an inked drawing on a paper - like this one
its best for the light to be consistent, as in it's not shining from one side only so other side of paper is darker, and try not to use the flash since it can create random highlights in the csnter of the paper
after taking the picture you will just open editing software of choice, I usually edit it inside the photos app and do the following
1. crop it (obvi)
2. increase the contrast
3. increase the blacks and whites
4. fully desaturate
5. either sharpness or pop filter cranked up to 100 for more clarity
hopefully you find this helpful ☝️🧐 that's my whole process basically
also in case you don't have these settings on your stock gallery app, just use Google photos app, that's where I edited the pictures
hey can you do me a favour?? Can you go get that nice pristine sketchbook or journal you've been hoarding and put some kind of mark on the first page? Anything will do, like a smudge of graphite or a blob of ink, or perhaps a very scribbly dinosaur. Just put something there. Please, or the dinosaur will be sad.
I was SO SAD for this dinosaur that I grabbed the nearest notebook (a calendar) and drew a little sailing ship for him
oh thank goodness!
IT’S OKAY IF YOU MESS IT UP
SKETCHBOOKS ARE FOR MESSING UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
THEY ARE!!!! It's right in the name! Like @sleepnoises said a while ago, they're for the quick putdowning of ideas! to catch the stuff that comes out of your brain! (I don't mean to say that pretty sketchbook pages are bad, but it's important for your health to do quick scribbly stuff too. if not in a book then perhaps on small scraps of paper)
The dinosaur is very glad to see so many doodles in the notes! Also lots of comments with very good suggestions for people who have a hard time starting, like starting on the second page, just signing & dating it, numbering the pages, or using the first page to put samples of all your usual pencils and pens and such.
Here's how I started my new sketchbook, which I got for 5 dollars at Dollarama. I would have drawn on that first blank page instead of just signing it, but it was partially glued to the endpaper and wouldn't lie flat.
(Also, since the sketches are about making velvet mites with little wired legs, I must mention that if/when I get around to doing that it'll be posted on @vincentbriggs where all my non-dinosaur arts go.)
