After graduating, Kyle the fox decides to pursue his dreams of becoming a bodybuilder (his major is Sports and Kinetic Arts after all). I guess he looks different from his old college ID.
As you can see, I am trying a new technique - using very thin lines (in fact, brush size is 1px as opposed to the usual 4px). However, I have a problem regarding coloring. Could anyone give me tips on coloring it (via PS)? The coloring method I use only works on thick lines (around 3px)...

See, the problem with 1px linework is that even your "solid" lines aren't solid. Most fill tools will fill diagonal pixels as they go across the page, so lines that look solid aren't always solid to the machine. I've had to deal with that in some early shape-practice stuff, too. There's two solutions, really... do larger pictures or at a higher resolution with a 2 px brush so no one can see how big the lines are and the larger brush size will usually help, or go in and edit each little corner until two things happen: your lines aren't too square, and no more diagonal jumps can be made across them. The high-resolution pictures will make it a little bigger to store, but you'll have your tiny lines with less risk of spillover. If you don't want to use so much space, then you'll have to use the small lines... but it can be tricky to keep your picture smooth, as it tends to become squarish when you add in all the corners.
Hope this helps, and best of luck to ya.
