    Quick advice, if you want to avoid the cleanup stage, use the pencil tool instead of the brush when you're tracing, when you use the paint bucket tool to fill in the areas, it won't leave pixels behind.

    To get the outlines you can also use the drop shadow filter. Just set blur to 0, the offset to 0, and change the grow radius to your liking. Works for both the hand and black circle.

  • @josephcote6120
    @josephcote6120 Год назад +1

    I've used a similar technique to create black and white art for rubber stamps. My suggestions if you want to use it for that is import the image you want. Lay a white layer over it and reduce the opacity until you can see the original image clearly. Select black to paint with then pick a good solid brush size for the outline and major lines of the image, and then a brush about half that size for the minor lines. When done bring the opacity back to 100% and delete the original image layer. Export it in an image style that's appropriate for the people making the rubber stamp.
    Don't try to capture every detail, most ink bleeds a bit when stamped on paper anyway. (Pro tip, a good non-bleed ink is the Palette line from Stewart Superior, it's a pigment ink not dye ink.) But experiment, find what works best for you. This is how I do it, and I like the style.

    It's probably a new addition, but if you want to change a single-color image to some other color (like black) you can use Color -> Colorize instead of your method. Way easier and surer.

      It depends on your task to be done. If sth quite simple or intermediate then in Gimp you can make it. If u wanna do sth advanced and really quickly , effectively then Photoshop will be truly powerful giving truly the best tools.
      For example I dislike some filters in Gimp cos they even don’t give u any view of result i.e. u can adjust some parameters but you don’t see any change until u apply it to your image.
      The same is with selections. Photoshop gives you way more advanced and effective.

    Why you choose to use bitmap instead of tracing it with the pen tool for that one?

      You can still convert it to a vector graphic later on.

    You can speed up the process a little by creating the guidelines by left clicking on the measuring bars on top or left and dragging to the center of the work space.

    Couldn't you just put the "Layer#1" all the way to the back instead of making a mask?

    • @stumbling
      @stumbling 6 лет назад +7

      It doesn't really apply to this design because the whole back is white anyway but hiding layers like that can potentially cause issues when printing via some processes like silkscreen where each layer is printed separately.

    why does it look so pixelated up close after you filled it in twice?

    • @RedFenceAnime
      @RedFenceAnime 6 лет назад +1

      Even on 100% hardness the brush still has anti aliasing.
      So there's still pixels on the edge that get blended making them not exactly the same color.
      Double clicking the bucket tool revolves it.
      He also could've picked the pencil tool instead of the brush. (But this looks way worse while you're still tracing.)

    • @primalpenguin
      @primalpenguin 5 лет назад

      Instead of filling it in twice I personally recommend you increase the threshold in the tool options of the bucket fill. This way, if fills it up better without adding extra thickness to the outline.

    • @RedFenceAnime
      @RedFenceAnime 5 лет назад

      ​@@primalpenguin That's a good tip, but in this example it either won't matter or give a worse result.
      I'm not going to watch the video again, but I believe there's a step which makes the edges hard again.
      And if that step isn't included the end result will looks worse when you fill in the outline, it will also be harder to print.

    Great video. Learnt a lot. Have been using GIMP only for vector conversions for a while. Never did any serious work with it. This video got me interested in following your step-by-step instructions. Came out pretty decent with an image I chose. Need to perfect my eraser and outline tracing better. Interested in designing t-shirt designs. Thanks so much for a very detailed video. Will head to your GIMP videos. 🙏

    It's mind boggling how you know all the tools from all these programs. I haven't worked as a graphic designer in a long while but when I was I wasn't even using half the tools. Is this years and years of trial and error or did you go from top to bottom on all tutorials for hours and hours? I don't get it. You are a real master. Cheers!
