I was really bored today

[Prince Glittersnatch III]

So made this

[tyrannosaurus vex]

ok

[Triple Zero]

Cleaned that up for you:



(meddled around with GIMP's color mixer, Red -33%, Green -33% Blue 120% to produce a monochrome image without the blue lines, cut away some smudges and then some sharpening and contrasting, but mostly I was trying to see if I could remove the lines)

[Placid Dingo]

nice.

[Jasper]

When I saw the original, it seemed alright.  I like it a lot more after the assist.  Nice teamwork.

[Jenne]

*agrees with Felix*

I esp like the Fnord-genitals.

[Prince Glittersnatch III]

Thanks for the cleanup. It looks solid on paper, the scanning blew it up though.

+2 assist.

This, I cannot stop snickering at that.

Had years of practice I used to draw shitloads of cartoons in highschool, most of them on lined paper, but even if they weren't they'd simply look a lot better if you'd treshold them to B&W, especially since like yours, a lot of them were done with a ballpoint, which as you can see kind of makes the paper go wobbly when you paint large dark areas.

[signal processing nerdery] Wish I had known more about the unsharp-mask filter back then, though. With a really big radius it can remove large scale brightness changes, allowing one to treshold based on local contract not global. Kind of like an auto DC-bias adjust in music recording. Image processing is sometimes basically just a 2D version of audio processing. Blur is a lowpass, sharpen is a highpass, edge detection is a bandpass, colour curves is a waveshaper, scaling is resampling, convolution is a FIR filter, you need dithernoise when you play with bit depth, additive layers is like mixing sounds, multiply layers is like modulating sounds, ...
