For my next project, I'm going to need someone whose good with digital art and can clean up a scanned sketch and make all the lines clear. That way the sketch is prepared for an artist who will be doing all the coloring. Kinda like a comic book before color is added to the images. The lines are clear and there's no smudging or anything.
Examples (Not by me. Below were done by various DA artists):Sketch: http://ebas.deviantart.com/art/big-bad-wolf-123632579Ink (what I need) : http://lahmiaraven.deviantart.com/art/Big-Bad-Wolf-Inked-Ebas-123932681Color: http://nahp75.deviantart.com/gallery/#/d2iiqziThat's how the process will be going. I'm going to be drawing the sketch. scanning it. And then will need someone to clean it up. And I'll be sending it to someone who will be coloring. Probably the one who colored the example above. I'm friends with the artist on DA. So if anyone wants to take a shot at doing the ink or line art (whatever you want to call it) give me a shout. It's going to be part of my online game. Most likely sketches for main menus and loading menus.
Anyone Good At Line Art or Inking sketched images?

I would like to give it a try at least.
Okay, I'm working on a sketch at the moment. I'll be scanning it tomorrow and will send you the sketch via PM here on 64digits.
Pen tool? Fucking kidding?
What's wrong with the pen tool?
Use sketchup, that what I used to convert some sketches to line art fairly easily. The demo can export images I believe. If you can't disable anti-aliasingm then you can use a posterize effect in a image editor to clean up the lines.
I'm not sure the author of that picture ever saw a canine paw in real life.
@Cesque yea, it's seems more dragon-like than canine.
@everyone else suggesting software: I'm not good with tracing and erasing. The mouse isn't steady enough for me. I'm more of a paper and pencil type of person when it comes t sketches.Thats why I recommend sketchup, it makes up for unsteady hands when drawing.
