this is how I do it (in photoshop):
- scan a drawing
- Adjust brightness/contrast so the edges are all uniform and strong
- Duplicate the layer and set it as "multiply" and name it "drawing". You will paint everything below this layer.
- Change the background to white
- Add a layer below the "drawing" layer and paint the basic colors with a hard-edge brush
- After the basic colors are done add another layer on top of it and name it "shadows". Use grey'ish tones to paint the shadows and set the layer to "linear burn" with 60% opacity
- Add another layer on top of the basic colors layer and name it "hightlights". Paint the hightlights with grey'ish tones again and set the layer to "screen" or even "color dodge". Adjust the opacity at will.
This is just a rough idea on how I do it. Another good trick is to link the highlights and shadows layers to the basic colors, so its easy to paint them. Here's an awesome article about this:

Also koko posted an awesome video tutorial on the 2d-art forum. You should check it too.

It's just that when I copy files straight from dvds/cds they are automatically set as "read only". At least the last time I did it (a few years ago when I switched from win 98 to xp - all of my old files are "read only" now)

Hello folks. I just got a new pc and I need to backup some files from my current pc. I don't want to use DVDs because all the files will be "read-only" afterwards and that's really annoying. Is there any way I can do it without having to .rar all my stuff ?
btw, I also sold this pc so I won't be able to mount my old hd on the new pc.

AmpII! :science:Actually, I don't recommend that one.
Nebula is pretty cool, though, runs everything through Maya plugins and is free. The educational game I worked on used it; it wasn't super incredible but did the job (plus there were only a handful of people working on it; I'm sure you could do more with more time and a few more people). http://www.radonlabs.de
Earlier version of the engine was used in this game: http://www.radonlabs.de/nomadsscreenshots.html
...which I think still looks pretty cool.
This game looks pretty good imo

So all level geometry is made on maya then imported into the engine ?? or am I being too dumb again ?
