Lineart/Vector

[Heyden]

I hope I'm allowed to ask questions in this section but anyway..
how do you guys make such perfect vectors/lineart? mine always turn out wobbly, no matter how high stabilising is.. any tips to getting it smoother?

Practice makes perfect

do you have a tablet? if so, then it might just come down to practice.

What drawing program do you use? If you use Paint tool SAI, you can create a linework layer that allows you to create absolute perfect lineart with tools to edit the sharpness, width, etc...

I'm certain Photoshop also has a feature like that, I don't use it tho so you're on your own!

Depends on your drawing program. I don't think that photoshop has a stabilizer option. Also, using a tablet would prove easier than using a mouse for lineart.

I use Manga Studio 5, I want to use Sai but I can't find a cracked version that's not a virus

here's my Sai version for download ; v ; (you need an unzip tool for it, like winrar etc)
it comes with extra brushes and textures!

i feel like the only person on the forums who paid for sai
Actually, most people just draw over it using a stabiliser, as lineart and vector layers can often look blocky. If you end up using sai, I reccomend using airbrush with minimum density set to 0%, and then stabiliser 15 for normal, and s-7 for long, curvy lines. Good luck!
