that looks okay in some spots but some look horrible (no offense to you). i think you need the lines traced to make it look cleaner

Thank you cyborg(no offense taken) and gecko(for telling me your secrets).... This is a feathered look.... I really didn't mean to make it look this way, I have to go back and fix a couple more things. I just wanted to get everybodys opinion



Thanks for the comments

I'm going to post the finished picture when I'm done.

Here is another attempt at it...not really finished because I think it could look better. I just wanted input on it.


Thanks,
Faded

I'm sorry but your image looks bad. it could use a ton of work. If you want a cartoon look, i suggest using paths (vectors) or maybe try to use Macromedia Freehand instead. If you're looking to make it look more details, not cartoonish, you should visit Dhabih Eng's website. He is an artist for VALVe software and is very talented. Here is a great tutorial on how to turn your drawings into a great CG image.

first off, i respect your opinions, but I'm not that advanced in photoshop to make my drawing flawless. Second, i really wasn't going for a cartoon effect; actually i was just experimenting with the image. So thank you for the suggestions.

Just set the magic eraser to a tolerance of 5 put in a white background then erase the white on the original. You may have to clean up a little but it should work. This should give you a clean picture that would be easier to paint.
