Hello, I hope you’re having a great day/evening!

I wanted to make you were aware that I came across a post that had VERY familiar artwork that they claimed to have done themselves. When I compared it to yours, it’s obvious they copied it. I’ve shared the link to the post below. Hopefully it works because the blog name keeps changing. The account itself seems shady with all the AI slop and posts with weird links in them. Might be a bot account or something...

    not even a copy like traced, thats my drawing, just enhanced in ai for better “rendering” lmao…………………………………………………thank you for letting me know, i already reported it. i would appreaciate if others could do the same. it seems to be a bot acc with multiple ai generated images

  • this might be a silly question but I love your style and lineart and I’ve been dipping my toes into digital art for awhile but I can’t for the life of me understand how to achieve that effect in my own lineart😭 how do you have it transitioning to a lighter color? by using blending modes in your lineart layer or by tracing the lineart again in a lighter color? and how do you know when it should be lighter? again sorry if this is kind of dumb or something you wouldn’t like to share but I really want to practice to find my own way of doing it and would love to have some advice🙏🏽

    hiii, sorry for the late answer >< ive been neglecting my inbox here oops

    as for lineart effect, the only thing i do is i paint over the lineart with a clip layer :0 so the color gets β€œclipped” into the lines, basically

    i select the colors so they match the flat colors. i also make it so there are slighttt variations/transitions. as to how do i know when it should be this or that, light or darker, more or less saturated.. atp it just comes naturally to me, ive been doing it for years haha.

    only thing i make sure is that the flat colors are never darker than the lineart. even after i paint the lineart, i still adjust it as i go (especially bc if u shade, your colors will get darker! so i always try to take that into account)

    ive heard some ppl do a quicker version of this, which is do your colors, duplicate layer, put on top of lineart, blur with gassian blur until u cant see the lineart, then make that layer a clip mask and apply β€œlighten” effect on it. or something like that, i cant remember well. but i prefer to do it manually
