This tutorial explains how to ink, as in where to make your lineart thicker and thinner, which really can be used for traditional and tablet users. Even if you have a tablet, or if you are a traditional inker this has some things that can help you. It has tips for people scanning in their lineart and some brush settings for tablet ppl. Then it goes over the path tool, and how to use it with different brush settings. NO TABLET NEEDED. I haven't tested earlier versions but I think I've used this method since Photoshop 7 and I've used every version of Photoshop since that version, so it should work for most computers.

FAQ:
Is there some way of automatically making the fade extend to the end of the path?
No, not that I know of there's no way to do this. You can always change the minimum width to a heigher percentage, and erase the end to make it tapper off. Or you can just go through the hard way an play around with the fade length in the brush window. Sorry ^^;

Why isn't the fade thing working D:
you have not gone into your brush window (F5 or window>brushes), gone to shape dynamic and switched the brush to 'fade' instead of pen pressure under size jitter. If you have not done this, it ain't gonna work. Also, mess with the fade value (the textbox next to the 'control' drop down menu. : )

yay! wow this is so great. something you made me notice was that you explained what the different settings do and why you use them while every other tutorial is like CLICK THIS IF YOU WANT IT TO LOOK LIKE MINE O:

this is so awesome and perfect and everything. admittedly, i knew MOST of what you said but holygosh even i learned something. i never considered the size jitter option, i always used friggin simulate pressure. learning...who knew? XD

Thank you. The first tutorial I did for lineart was like that, step by step stuff. But I tried to be more thorough this time. To me, how to do something is more important than how I do something. I like to see other people use different styles...

I'm so glad I this helped you, I thought ppl were going to be like, "I've seen all this before." Thank you. ^___^

ah, sorry, what part do you mean by the bottom part of the tutorial? Can you specify so that I may fix it ^^; And also, do you mean looks funny in appearance or how I worded it?

Thank you. I tried to make it so that people who were not extremely familiar with photoshop could understand.

even so, you rarely find people who do their lineart EXACTLY alike. so you'll still benefit. i know how to color and do lineart but i STILL love coming across a really good tutorial. i used to cg the way *runeechan did hers in [link] and [link] and later on i found myself doing it more like =jisuk in [link] and just NOW i used [link] by *pandabaka! yet it's still my own style because they showed me HOW to do it as opposed to going "this is what i do."
