This tutorial was written by Monti on February 8th 2009. It's concept is copyrighted to Monti. Any creation you make from my ideas are yours. You may print out this tutorial for your own personal use, but please do not copy it in any way to put online, pass out or rewrite without my permission or worse yet attempt to claim as your own.
For this tutorial you will need
Paint Shop Pro
The Following Colour Chart
Save and open in PSP.
This colour chart is just a guide, feel free to use whatever colours you want.
Ok we are ready to start.
REMEMBER TO SAVE OFTEN
Step 1: - Outline
I decided not to split the main image into pieces so I needed to make the count quite large.
Because of this I can't load it onto this page so please click the small image below which will open the main count. Right click and save this and open in PSP.
To help you keep count of what you have done you can add a new layer to the count in PSP and draw a line through the pixels you have drawn to keep your place.
Carriage Count
To make this easier I have numbered all pixels over 1.
NOTE:
The numbers in black are the total lengths of the lines. The smaller numbers in blue are to help you count the spaces and work out where the joining lines go.
Select the brush tool with the following settings.
Size: 1 - Hardness, Opacity and Density: 100
Zoom in to about 800% - 1000%
Set your foreground to colour 5 on the colour chart (#000000) and start at the roof of the carriage.
Change the colours as you go.
The blue is Colour 1 (#12127D) - the red is Colour 3 (#B30000).
Open a new image 400 x 250 and fill with white so you can see what you are working on.
Once your outline is complete it will look like the small image above.
