![]() I was about to suggest you to try CMYKtool (specially with devicelink profiles, so you create a custom black generation curve for the rich black line-art). (FR) "Colorisation de BD Du traditionnel au numérique" (FR) de Stéphane Baril, Naïts ( ).Here is an archive file with the final RVB file in xcf and the CMYK in TIFF. Result of the CMYK conversion with Photoshop CS2 Download : I finish with saving to the TIFF file format, with the CMYK ICC profile asked by my publisher too, here a 'Europe ISO Coted Fogra27'.įor saving disk space, I allow a LZW compression. I change the color on the layer of line-art to use only Black 100% and on the grey I setup the grey of my publisher : C=80% M=70% Y=70%. On Photoshop, I convert my file using the layer group properties to restrict the channel on the black ink, I use only 'K', and on the color and the grey channel I use only 'CMY'. To give the file to Photoshop, I save in PSD. When it's done, I fill the new selection with a dark grey. ![]() I prepare the grey layer in Gimp I use the 'Alpha to selection' on my line-art layer combined with a 'Shrink selection' of 1 pixel. Also, I want to prepare under the line-art a dark grey to make the black look deeper when it will be printed.įill the selection with grey on a new layer I want here to have all the color using the CMY cartbridge colors only and the line-art using pure Black color ink. Be sure when I will know it, I will be the first to use it. The final RGB colorisation 5) Export for printįor exporting in CMYK I still use my license of Photoshop CS2 ( with Wine ) cause I still don't know how to do it with the security of a corect result with only FLOSS. You can play with the balance of colors to warm up the overall too. If you want to add a bit more of life, you can brush with a rounded basic brush over the colors layer with some brighter strokes and a low opacity. For most of the fast cartoons with a cell-shading rendering this step can be the final. Open a large color palette to make this process easier. With the Fill bucket tool ( with the option 'fill similar color' and a low 'treshold' ), it's easy now and fast to replace each automatic psychadelic colors of the Multifill script. Importing the line-art over the result 4) Colors When it's finish delete the layer above with Line-art + red limits and load ( load as new layer ) your old copy of final Line-art ( the one without red lines ).Īs you see on the animation above the advantage of this script is in the clean result of the colorisation : each zone frontier are right in the middle of the thickness of your black lines. I launch the script 'Multi-Fill' with the same setting as in the screenshot above and I let the script detect each closed zone, and fill with a random color. I add a new layer under my line art, and I start with a thinner G-pen in red to draw the limit of each different color zone I want. This is probably the main section of this tutorial. When it's finish, I save my work, and I save in another file a copy of the final Line-art layer I will need it later.įinishing the inking with a white layer under 3) Multi-Fill ![]() The screenshot above show the setting I use with G-Pen.Īt the end, I add a white layer under my line-art to finish my inking. With the G-Pen tool of Gimp-painter I start to ink my drawing, on a separate empty layer. I start to convert my pencil artwork in a light blue range of colors I use the tool colorize ( Color > Colorize ). To produce a beautifull result, I play with the level to clean white. First step is the scanner acquisition with Xsane of my drawing (HB pencil on A4 paper ).
