Laying Flats - The Easy Way

Description

So far I've found this to be the fastest and easiest ways to do flats. This isn't the perfect way to lay flats (there is no perfect way), as any gaps in the lines will fill with the same color. But it does cut down on a LOT of time and work.

To keep the same color from filling two different areas where gaps in the line art is present just go in with the "pencil" tool (with a small tip set to black color) and connect any open lines before starting the BPelt plug-in.

Thanks so much to ~fco for sending me the link to this awesome time-saving program and to ~NormanWong for helping me figure out how to use it.

To download the BPelt plug-in go to BPelt.com [link]

Lines used in this tutorial are from [link] :iconwindriderx23:. Check out his awesome line art! :) *Always ask the line artists first before coloring their lines.*

**Please forgive any spelling or grammar mistakes.**

Oh - And if you like the program I encourage you to donate to the bpelt website as they offer this program 100% free of charge. This program/plug-in has literally saved me hundreds of hours (and will for you too if you color as much as I do lol) - a program like that is priceless, but they offer it for FREE! So show your support and donate at least a little to let them know you really appreciate it. :hug:

This is so incredibly usefull! Laying flats down has always been a bit of a bitch for me, so hopefully this will make the process less painful. Thank you!
