Aoi Enpitsu no Justu

I just finished an anime CG for a deviantART contest ^-^

I tried a technique which most professionals do, that is sketching with a blue pencil. Now it’s very clear to me how bleedman can manage without inks. Adobe Photoshop can remove the blue lines without effort just by maximizing the lightness of the blue channel (pretty simple huh) ^-^ Now I can’t imagine doing my sketch without a blue pencil ^^ It makes my sketches cleaner because I erase black lead at a minimum level, plus blue lines don’t appear XD

I usually do my inking digitally, but now with this tecnique I’ll try to emulate the traditional ink method. Actually it can’t be called “inking” because I will not use inks but rather make my black lead pencil sketch more bolder. It’s the same technique bleedman uses, I just need to master it somehow. Now you may ask “why not just go on with traditional inking?”, I’m not quite confident with my hands now. I think after I finished mastering the “emulated ink” I’ll try to proceed mastering the “real ink” ^-^
