Sorry for asking a lot of questions ;v; how do you also do the outlines of your characters? Like for example, the picture of shoal stretching?
I use the Auto Select tool on the line art:
Make sure all of the little spaces outside of the character are selected as well (SHIFT+click):
Then go to 'Select' then 'Invert Selected Area'. This will flip the selection from being outside of the character to inside of your line art.
Afterwards, expand your selected area! Just go to 'Select' then 'Expand Selected Area'
This little box should pop up and then you just put in the number of pixels you want to expand it by. My usual is often between 3, 5, 7, and 10. For outlines, I usually use a 5.
You'll go from this, to this:
That shows how much of an outline you'll have. If it's too much or too little, just undo the select expansion and either lower or raise the number until you're happy with what you have. Once you're happy with your outline space, make a new layer underneath your character layers (inks, colors, ect) and just fill in the space with your color of choice~! I usually just use the Fill tool. Afterwards, just deselect (CTRL+D or go to 'Select' then 'Deselect', and then you have something like this:
Hope this helps~
