Do you scan em? Well oke I know how to scan but my drawings are either too light, or I'm just doing something wrong. Should I overline my drawings again with darker colors and scan em or do any of you have a tip for me?

Well, I think you should either adjust the constast or the briteness of the scan or maybe adjust both.

If your trying to scan plain pencil drawings on white paper they are going to come in VERY light, the pencil lead refracts the light.

To make them show up more INK your drawings with a fine art pen, thats what I do.

Or just draw in pen, I do that alot when I'm just testing, since you cant erase, you just flow with it.

if its just line-art and u got Photoshop, use the Photocopy filter. Paint shop Pro has some sort of similar filter too, I think.
If not, just do the Contrast thing!
