since I get asked a lot how I get nice lines, I decided to take a quick screenshot to show everyone instead of re-explaining it all the time~!
This is just a quick sketch obv but I keep the same settings for my linework. I generally work large and resize at the end, too, which helps your lines look tight and smooth! The important part (for me, at least) is to keep your pen at a high stabilizer - that's the part at the top, which I have set at 14. It makes your pen go slower, though, which annoys some people, so play around and see which you like most!
In general, most clean linework I do with a pen size between 5 and 9. I always keep the pen tool at the highest smoothing option, too, which is the 'qualty' (lol) setting in the red box.
Any other questions, please ask and I will do my best to answer! :)

There's soooo many occasions where I'm like ';A; I love this artist's line art but I don't want to send them the 'OMG HAO YOU DO PRETTY LINES' note for the billionth time', and then my prayers are answered and you posted it for me ;3; You are a goddess *kisses your hooveses*
Ahaha, these are almost identical to my own settings! Biggest difference is that I keep the stabilizer ("smoothing" on my copy of SAI) at 15 instead of 14. And I have edge hardness set to 100, though I've been known to mess with that one.
I looooove SAI for lineart, seriously. <3

ahh, okay...
thnx ^^
and i duno what u mean by the pen lags? I put the smoothing up to S-7. Would then pen lag behind the mouse?
If so that could b ur pc thats just not powerful enough to process the "smoothing". It probably uses anti aliasing er something, cuz it does a really good job at smoothing :P

Hi Capri! I just wanna tell you, without presumption, that I've got a new tablet... But MAN! It's SO har to get use to it ;/
Hope that you don't mind if I ask you for some pieces of advice for me to be easier to use the new toy? :3
I'm using photoshop and a little bit of SAI, but this last program can't help me with the colouring.. I think it's the thing in which I have some troubles, the colouring, I can do the lines but just like that, when I try to give them colour I'm such a mess, for the effects, textures, diffuse colours, tones and the shadows... MAN! I hate shadows):
Can you give just a bit of help, hun?(:
