YOU HAVE JUST SAVED ME SO MUCH TIME AND EFFORT!!!!!! I used to MANUALLY recolor in those stupid white spaces and you have NO idea how much my mind is BLOWN right now. THANK YOU SO MUCH
FINALLY, THANK YOUU VERY MUCH ive been searching how to do this for hours, other youtube video just speed his video up 4x... other just explain what the tool does, ect... this video just save me many hours once again thankyou
Seconds. Minutes. You saved me time. Thank you. This is what I wanted to know, but forgot from a previous time. I do believe I saw this exact video from before, but forgot somewhere along the... "lines". Good job!
Tip for speeding this process up. Assign the "Expand" & "Contract" commands to a hotkey. Or assign the commands to a basic Action and assign a hotkey to that action. Doing either will greatly increase your art speed. Personally, I have the expand/contract default set to 2 pixels. And that usually does the trick. If not, then I press the hotkey again.

OH MY GOD, I've been looking for this thing. but, instead of getting it I got the flexing thing on another videos. But now, I am so satisfied with this 🎉🎉 thank you so much, this is got me so much helpful
Oh my God. Thank you so much for this! You have saved me days worth of nerves. I've just gotten a quantity-based job and inability to *just* fill a color quickly has been driving me insane. Thank you- thank you-thank you!✨ Gonna sub omg *Sorry for the too intense excitement*
Great thank you, this has been bugging me for years, but as hardly ever used it, just spent the time, however got a new job which needs this a lot, hense why i fund you tutorial, lol finally, a top tip, at 2:17 in blending if you select background this will do the fill behind your line art, and mean you don't have to create another layer... (Unless of course you need another layer)
Wow such an easy process thank you so much for solving my problem, I was doing drawing but I didn't know how to fill colour in it. For that I had to use "pen tool" But thanks to your description now it's more easier to do drawing and fill colours. Thank you again ❤
I was just getting frustrated at this today. I figured there had to be a way to adjust the selected area like this, but don't know enough about PS to know where it would be or what it would be called. This helped! Thanks!
Awesome video. I wrote a comment about this being very suitable for comic-artists, but looking at the comment section, I think that's exactly what it was meant for. :)
Hey, thanks for letting me know, I occasionally say something and forget to explain it! So basically, when you are holding down the 'alt' key, when you hover your cursor or pen over the bit between the 2 layers ( watch the cursor in this area on the video very closely ) you will see the icon change, by clicking when that icon appears ( when you have the mouse cursor between the 2 layers whilst holding alt down ) it will lock it to the layer below. Does that make sense or did I just really over complicate that? Thanks for watching!
Ah, thank you. I had literally the exact same problem right now. One thing though, can you set the expand to, for example, "5", the entire time? Or do we need to use the magic wand, modify, expand, ... and repeat the entire process everytime?
Good question! The only thing I can think to do is to create an action ( I think that is what it is called) basically photoshop lets you record a set of things / actions, so modify and expand by 5 might be the saved action and then you would map it / keyboard short cut to say.. F5 for example, and then when you press that button it does it for you. Does that make sense?
@@drthertyhejrthrth I have added it on to my to do list, but if you need it before that, I use it in my old 'flip canvas' video as well - ruclips.net/video/XIRTDfnnPf0/видео.html
Mess like this is why I'm going to transition away from using Photoshop. The program has been out for decades and ALL other art programs have already figured out how to avoid avoid artifacts. But Adobe, even with all of it's content aware fill features, refuses to fix this basic issue.
It is a shame that they have a few issues that seem like small fixes for such a big company, but I am so used to using Photoshop that I'm not sure I would be able to get to grips with other programs quite as well. What other programs do you like?
I'm going to burn myself saying this, I've been doing paintings on Photoshop since a decade, but i say, Photoshop was made as but a photo editing tool, not quite for clean drawings, i myself don't recommend it at all for line art, if you want to make clean drawings (such as cel shading or etc) use Photoshop for the post processing
@@SketchedbySte Krita is a GREAT program, although with some different options, it's really great, specially with animation too i also find SAI good for lineart only
@@Suveramort Yeah I know what you mean, I sometimes use clip studio paint / manga studio for line art and I am always tempted to try and swap over. I'm also a big fan of procreate on the Ipad, but I have been using Photoshop for so long that it's just second nature now, I'm stuck in my ways.. haha
Hi, I used to use this method, or by selecting the outside of my line art and inverting the selection. But, Adobe has fundamentally changed how the wand tool looks. Is there any method of doing this without the wand tool? Or, a way you know of which can revert the wand tool to this much more useful way of working?
Hey thanks for watching. Which version are you using? It's difficult for me to say off the top of my head as the magic wand tool still works for mine. Is it the magic wand that is having issues, or do you mean after selecting it, there is no option to invert it? There's also the quick selection tool that is very similar to the magic wand. Sorry if I have misunderstood
@@SketchedbySte sorry, I didn't word myself well. I meant to say "changed how the magic wand WORKS" rather than "looks" Basically Photoshop CC made it default that the wand selects everything of the same colour on a layer. So, when I did ink lines, I selected outside them, but instead of making a selection of the blank space around the inks, it selected any blank space -- in and out of my inked lines. I managed to solve the issue though. Eventually I found that there was a tick box I had to click to make the wand tool's selection work how it used to, "Contiguous" I think it's called. It now works how it should. The reason I brought up inverting selection is because I do very complex line work, and it's easier to select outside the inks and invert the selection to fill the shape, rather than selecting every blank space between ink lines inside the space.
@@Spike-Prime Ahh I understand now, really glad you managed to find the fix, can be frustrating sometimes! Hopefully your comment will help some others in the future too! That makes sense about inverting the selection, you have me intrigued though, would love to see your work. If you're on insta feel free to send me a message with some pics :)
@@SketchedbySte Unfortunately I'm not on Instagram. Part of their terms and policies is that they are allowed to use any imagery uploaded to their site, in any way they want, without any credit or royalty going to the original creator, same reason I don't post art to Facebook either. They effectively own any art posted to the site according to their site T's & C's.

If you see this plz reply asap been searching for hours and can’t figure it out’ Say you have 4 squares next to each other’ So it’s basically a long rectangle and on the inside 3 lines go top to bottom to make 4 squares inside’ If I have even a tiny line gap can’t use color fill bucket to fill in the square as there’s a break in line it will color all boxes in etc’ how can I fix that…? Exported pdf to png to get My box diagrams then opened in PS
Hey, there is a settings / number along the top of the Photoshop toolbar when you have the magic wand tool selected that lets you control how strict the selection is when it comes to breaks in the area etc, I think, although I must admit I have not played around with it to test it. Personally I would just use the brush tool to fill in the lines on that same layer to prevent breaks in the boxes, if you want the lines to be super straight even when using the mouse, this super quick video I made will help - ruclips.net/video/WE7PDAyMVsI/видео.html There are probably other ways too but it really depends how comfortable you are with Photoshop. You could use the box selection tool to create some boxes and fill that selection. Do any of those things help? Good luck
Anyone know why my magic wand has stoppled functioning as it should? Nomatter the layer or where i click it only selevelts everything in the layer im in, instead of a specific closed part of my lineart like its meant to
I'm trying to find the art style I had to do back in highschool, I think it's line art but I'm not sure. I had to take a photo and then with that photo make small filled blotches to make the entire thing digital, is this the style?
This may be a really dumb question but. How in the hell when you've inversed the selection do you paint bucket fill the whole selection? when I do so, it just fills say a portion of the hair if thats where I've clicked, and i need to paint bucket click every single "chunck" of lineart thats white inbetween my lines to fill the whole image
I think I understand what you mean, is there a gap / split between them so they are seperate in a sense? if so, instead of using the paint bucket tool, there is a fill option. Try pressing alt + backspace on your keyboard and see if that fills it instead. Let me know
Can you do this? Situation: Layer 2 consist of the line art Layer 1 is the layer for coloring How would you color Layer 2 in layer 1 since it's a different layer? (well as a novice illustrator I suffer in coloring a line art in the same layer since it tampers the line art when putting shadows )
@@SketchedbySte well in your video I just notice you filled the line art with color in the same layer But I got used in ( Ibis paint) filling the line art with color in separate layers (making the line art top of the color layer) tho when I did that I just end up filling the whole layer with the color I used Is there some kind of way to do the same thing in your video? (but only the color and the line art are in separate layers)
@@reyperadsv6028 ahh sorry I understand now, a lot of programs do have this feature so I am sure Photoshop will have, but admittedly I do not know where the option is! There is a work around I can think of though: use the magic wand tool to select within your line art you want to fill (on the same layer as your line art for now ), once you have selected it, you can create a new layer, and the area you marked with the lasso tool is still selected, then you can paint on that layer / fill within the area you have selected and it is on a separate layer which you can then put below your line art layer - if you watch from 2:55 you will see the example in the video. Let me know if that works for you
Yeah I know what you mean, very frustrating, I see some artists filling line art in their videos quite easily, so it may just be that I haven't found an effective method yet.. maybe.. hopefully lol
hmm that's strange, you are on the right layer and being accurate with your selection I presume? You might have to send me a video on social media so I can see. Perhaps it's a setting that I am unaware of
This makes me realize how dumb and rigid I am with photoshop 😂 All this time, wasting soooo much time either manually select with lasso tool or meticulously using brush and eraser by hand, and I actually could just do this and make my life easier. 😂
haha don't worry, I think we all feel like that with Photoshop, there are so many different ways of doing things, but then sometimes it doesn't work flawlessly unfortunately, so it can still be frustrating! Hopefully this one can save you some time in the future though! Thanks for watching
if this is the quickest way photoshop is really bad and slow compared to adobe illustrator or clip studio paint. i really hope you're wrong and there's something like clips reference layers in PS..
I could well be wrong as I don't really use the fill tool much so hopefully someone else in the comments can give us a better way :) I haven't heard of clips reference layers, how does that work? Thanks for watching
@@SketchedbySte in clip studio paint you make line art in vector, make it a reference layers and then fill in raster in seperate layers. a bit like a clipping mask in other programs. might actually have to try if that works.. thanks for the commend. a lot of guides are using this technique bit it isn't very useful for extremely complex line art like i'm used to unfortunally.
Excellent question! And I haven't used fine enough lines to have an issue yet, so in all honesty I am not sure! Have you tested it? I will try think if there is another way
