I've had quite a few people ask me how to do my linearts in Illustrator. This is a basic tutorial to see if I could try to explain it.

++WARNING++

It's pretty long so if you have a slow modem it can take a while to load...it's also best if you have SOME experience in Adobe Illustrator or at least doing vectors in other programs like Photoshop!

Wow. I would love to try that out, but sadly, I don't have Illustrator. Guess it's still traditional media inking for me. Great tutorial, anyways!

Nice tutorial. I do it the same way -- gotta love Illustrator, since it makes the lineart nice and clean.

papaya Says:

I've never known just how to do lineart, and everyone seems to know how to do it in a different way. It's so exciting to see just how different another person does it! Awesome tutorial!

I recently received Illustrator, so I'll be sure to try this out once I get used to it. ^^
