…I know many of you are hesitant about making a jump to the computer.…You're used to drawing by hand, it's comfortable, and I do understand that.…It took me a while to get over that hurdle as well.…But I'm going to show you some great ways to ease into working in Photoshop.…And for starters, in this chapter, we're going to use hand drawn croqui,…scan them in, and render them on the computer.…Why should you learn how to do this?…Because it's faster.…If you have to redraw, it's going to take a long time.…But in Photoshop, you can make changes on the fly.…
For example, the fabric fill on these pants.…I was a lot faster to do in Photoshop than if I hand-rendered it.…And when it changes, and…you know it will, one click will allow me to pop in a new fabric.…This marker rendering could take a while to change the color,…I'd have to redraw it.…But in Photoshop, I can easily swap this out and match the red.…Just like that.…So for this chapter, we're going to cover everything from getting your…hand drawn croquis scanned into the computer, to saving for layouts.…
