About This Class
Find out how illustrator Billy Wittenberg colorizes his graphic novel, Thicker Than Blood. Using Photoshop, Billy will show you how to flat pages, render colors, and add textures and special effects to create an eye-popping, attention-grabbing comics page.
In this first part of a series of classes, you'll learn how to properly "flat" a comics page. This is the process of separating areas of color on the comic page. This makes it very quick and easy to later select those areas in order to render effects.
You should be familiar with Photoshop, or any other photo editing software that you prefer, before you enroll in this class.
