![WHICH FREE DRAWING PROGRAM IS THE BEST?? [Testing FireAlpaca, Krita, and Gimp!]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/PuIGqjqp2LI/mqdefault.jpg)
This. This vid right here changed SO much for me.
I always hated my line art and wanted to just quit drawing but this, THANK YOU.
Dear sweet gawd, THANK YOU so much for this.
Good tutorial, but I recommend using the Smooth Stroke option along with the ink tool. I feel it's faster and you get very neat and clean lines.
Whats the smooth stroke option? And where do I find that option?
2 years old, but for anyone else scanning through these comments and wanting to know the answer to that question; click on the ink tool which is next to the airbrush tool (which is next to the eraser), then simply look down on the ink tool options which is usually automatically docked. Smooth stroke is right there near the top of all the options. I'd personally not keep it too high.
Agreed. This method is fine, for more simplistic, cartoony art. For more realistic and/or detailed works, it can become very tedious to clean up the lines. I actually used the paths tools method, but stroked my lines using the ink tool as was suggested and the lines were SO gorgeous. Thank you ZucankiZX and The Masquerader for the tip. It was incredibly helpful.
I have no idea what the smooth tool is but I’ll check it out thanks
Thanks for this video. Transitioning from hand drawn to digital art hasn't been the easiest on me, your video has made it much easier for me to start transitioning some of my works
Well, this wasint what i thought it was going to be, BUT! I did learn something :D . Thanks for the vid :)
This was pretrty cool. I've always used gimp, but didnt know that the paths tool could be used that way
I had no idea this tool even existed.
I do have a tablet, but linework is incredibly hard, it is just wobbly and messy for me.
So I might try this method for much cleaner lines.
Thanks a lot!
thank you so much!! cant believe you posted this so long ago, it helped me perfectly!!! hugs
This is amazing at first I thought he/she was just copying someone else's work, but he/she is not! I get it now this method is use to transfer your already draw work ( or about to be drawn work) into I very touched up version on our computer! ( or at least that what im doing) 😊
Cool. Thanks for the video, now I have to start tracing my drawings and color them.
I love the leaf it looks really cool🙂
Awesome. You simplified things a lot
"How to draw line art in gimp"
okay step 1, draw line art
You make it look so easy... xD I'll keep trying at it, though. I'm so motivated to make something good for my love
Awesome tutorial. I'm gonna start using that paths tool, thanks so much! Make more videos, and don't be afraid to add some audio in! You deserve more subs, keep at it and don't give up!
The video is nice but I think with music it will be nicer 😁
Thanks. I've been hand inking my drawings like a twat. This will save much time and effort, not to mention now I don't need to close paths since the Stroke Path option has just been shown to exist.
ما شاء الله عليج
جدا جميييييييييلة
واتعلمت منها كثير
thanks aloooot :)
I´ve been using my pencil all along. This tool seems to be much more useful for lineart.
Both have their own uses, the best way to do lines is to combine them.
Finally an actual tutorial
This looks so difficult, but so worth it, thanks so much this was so helpful!
Oh for those who don't want to have to erase the excess parts of the strokes, you can edit the way the strokes are drawn so that the curvature makes a more cusp like shape.
Cool, but SAI is better for mouse linear for me at least. I'm getting a tablet soon, so I'll be able to do more things in GIMP without stressing over the lines.
Pretty clever! I'll definitely be using this method in the future!
Thanks for the guide. It's easy to understand, nice
Thanks dude! I can finally make my art look WAY better. Also I like your drawing! ;)
THis is exactly what I want to use my downloaded photoshop for, I was in the process of finding the tool bar I erased for the first month or so. Would go to school on the process of using everything gladly step by step.
nice tutoril bro really helped me with my ELEMENTARY projects
Thank you for the very VERY helpful video this really helped me use gimp better cause I'm a noob when it comes to drawing on the computer or and thing like this in General just
thank you so so VERY much
Great tutorial
ah man. i wished you did more videos. this is great
Really good! Congratulations!
How do you draw a single line with the path tool? How do you end a path without having to close it off at it's first point?
+Bill Cipher You don't need to join the end and start points
Bill Cipher u use stroke path in the tool options
I hope you do a tutorial for coloring too! I'm just getting into Gimp and I love your tutorial (way better than the others I've seen so far.) Anyway I subscribed, so... I hope you can do a tutorial for coloring in Gimp. :)
How do I get those menus in the bottom half of the toolbox? Such as for the eraser and line tool?
I have re-traced the same image too many times to keep having it all disappear repeatedly. Also how do you readjust line size? once I trace all the lines made, I cannot reduce the size of the line, it will only increase in size.
This is very tedious and time consuming method, but it does come out with neater results. Though I still prefer to redraw the lines and use the Smooth Stroke function.
Thank You ,for this great tutorial ,would have loved to have sound though..
Figured out how to add in the dropbox area. though it doesnt look the same as what you show. doesnt say Edit mode, or give options at all like you have.
o...m....g thank you so much, this is gonna help my lines be way neater
Thank you you just saved my life 😘😍😍
Just the tutorial i was looking for, thx! :)
Hello. I know I am late, but do you know a way that the line art blends in with the color of the character? You know, traditionally, the visible black line frames the whole drawing but I have seen artists made them softer with this style.
was that a hand drawing your scanned in first?
Great vid! Really cool!! I'll try with some of my work =)
How come when you hit the "stroke path" option the lines don't look pixelated?!
He/she has a big scaled picture (over 2000px in width)
Ohhh
u can increase the number of pixels per inch of the layer in the layer attributes.
Hi! how can I open a new layer in white, without the grey and white little squares of the default layer? I'm a begginer at this program.
Oh yes thank you for the the help !!!
This is great!! So very helpful! :) Thank you.
Your video helped me A LOT!!!
Thank you :D
Awesome :) I learned something new today.
OMG YOU ARE MY HERO!! thank you sooo Soo Much!!
I am gonna be extremely honest with u +buonopanda.... The line path is a beginner move.. tht is for when u have trouble making lines urself.. it is a better to do the lines urself using a pen too.. it is easier for me tbh to use a pen tool and it takes a short amount of time
The art of drawing on a paper sheet above a picture on the opened window during daytime, but on GIMP.
How do you change the color of the paths tool, it's just white, I want it to become black
you can do this in inkscape which is better for doing this.
Thank you so much. This really helped me.
do you have a vid where you're coloring it? that one's gonna be awesome!
Question, is using line tool "drawing"? if it not, how is it not drawing? if it is, then I can see why
Thanks!! This helped me so much.
Thank you for this video!
this is really amazing but very difficult
Thank you .I really needed to learn this! :D
ME SIRVIÓ MUCHÍSIMO REALMENTE GRACIAS!
can i color the open path ? open path is not join beetwen start and end node
Great work, however I would liked better to have some comments on the strokes. Thanks for posting!
I feel rather silly for asking but where did you get that background image? Did you sketch it?
I'm trying to use the Stroke Path but it's not a solid black line like in the video. It's a transparent grey line. How can make it solid like in the video?
I know it was fast but, you need to stroke the path as he did in the video, first it will be a grey line with dots and stuff but if you stroke the line you will get a solid black outline on the line and it will also remove the dots and stuff. Hope I helped!
Hypnotic
Thank you, I made my icon in gimp and it would have gone way faster if I did this. lol
Yea I taught myself how to do that.. Took forever too. lol
Me neither but, I'm getting better. lol
VictoryFireDailyLife Its easy once you get the hang of it.
It is and I have. lol
I hand draw some stuff first, take a picture of it then do the line drawings in gimp. Makes things so much easier.
Thanks for the tutorial.
why doesn't my gimp version have brushes?
how do you make actual vectors on a pixelated image?
nice tutorial
Thanks, this could be useful to learn.
what version is that of gimp? i have 2.8
when i go to correct the paths of the lineart, it moves the line rather than curve it?
Click the line part of the path, then you can curve it.
Really helpful, thank you.
this was so helpful!! ^-^
my image is too small to do line art with and when i try to resize it it dose not work what do i do
How do you de-select your Paths Tool after you put all the dots in place when you got your lines all set up?
I don't know if you already found your answer, but you can switch to a different tool and it should disappear. I think there is a box where you can turn off and on the paths.
Press B to start creating a new path. This will keep the path tool active, but make your previous path be archived. You can see all your previous paths on the right pane.
Thank you guys so much for the advice. I'll try them out once I get back to using it again. I'll write down these tips so I won't forget next time I use the Paths Tool. :)
:) no problemo
GIMP is for free silly. Their latest version is GIMP 2.8. You can download it on their official website here: www.gimp.org/ now as for the additional brushes and effects I'm not sure if they cost but, I can look into that later. I hope this helps. ^_^
omg thank you so much!
cool!
Although for the people who like this stuff, it's nice
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!
Merci pour se tuto mais les trait qui depasse apres avoir mis les poin quand on les met noir les trai qui dépasse je peut pas les effacer dsl d'étre french :x
I've try this iya really good since I can't afford digital tab
really hepfull video, thank you, really =D
How do you get your lines so crisp? Mine are all pixelated. And my eraser isn't erasing, it's just making the lines gray. How can I fix it?
+Nicktoonsgurl13 if it's pixelated, maybe your original image size is too small?
In the video, that image is 2000-ish pixels across
you should remake the tutorial since gimp updated, its almost a completely different program.
I think you used a tablet to write at the end of the video??.
I hardly use pathtools for inking prefer tablet and stabilizers for inking, although if using pathtool I'd probably use smoothpath plugin registry.gimp.org/node/20069 lol I hate trying to line up those path curves.
I might also use emulate brush stroke option because I like tapered ends and maybe registry.gimp.org/node/19759 for paths that I want to emulate taper on one side not both unlike gimps standard emulate brush stroke.
If I am wanting to use gimp for only some parts of drawing I would use shellout plugin registry.gimp.org/node/24977 as it allows for quick exporting and automatic opening of files in external programs like inkscape, sai, firealpaca, clip paint studio etc. it also loads file when done back into gimp automatically, really handy for workflow makes programs seem to work together.(to bad shellout only works for windows users.)
I imagine you could also color with solid colors then use color to selection tool then use selection to path then smooth path and last use stroke path, if you dislike using the manual pathtool unsure of results it would create this way though. Great Video buonopanda thanks for taking the time to freely share :)
THE PATHS KEEP CONNECTINGGG
real helpful wonder if can draw gipsy danger
