Another tutorial :) This time on how to scan and clean up scans. My experience is that scanners hack your work, so here's some tips on restoring it, and even improving it :) I hope it's useful!

more tips: [link]

for PS users ~RetroSushi adds the locations of some other useful tools in photoshop:

Black and white - image>adjustments> Levels or Curves
Color - image>adjustments> color balance or hue/saturation

She adds the same info applies, but there are more sliders and the curves are a bit different.

I need an advice about coloring traditional lineart. It's hard to clean all those white,grey areas to make traditional lineart looks good. I want to delete the white paper area and stay with good looking black lines on upper layout. IMO pencil lineart looks great with digital coloring but I don't know how to do it without hours of cleaning all those white dots.

Sorry I cannot help with that, I never colour that way. I have heard other people say the only way to do it is to trace on a new layer and delete the original lines, but hopefully there is a better solution out there if you can find it!
