the first workflow just shows the finished image

the second workflow shows a really light sketch and the finished image. i also want to know how he did this. how did that guy completely remove the background.

all pictures are also super low-resolution

First pic is my pencil sketch.

Then I ink over it. I legit showed you how I erased the background. I used the erase tool (the tiny square you see in that image), adjusted brightness/contrast, then levels, then I convert to black and white. Photopea is online and free. Take a pic into it and you can open it right now and see for yourself.

I not here to teach people how to use Photopea or how to draw; there are tutorials out there for that. And they are free.

I posted for other cartoonists who might wanna make the leap from sketchbook to Lemmy, and I showed that it doesn't take any money to do it. I don't even scan my comics, I take pics of my drawings with my phone and take into Photopea (Free photoshop alternative) and I am on Linux Mint (Free) operating system.

I gave you a step-by-step process and you are still no convinced. That least me to believe you will never be convinced. And that's fine. I take it that you are not a cartoonist then, because nothing I have shown is mysterious to people who do this.
