You can just leave the grays there. Nice leveling, Good Rotation, and you uses black brushes to cover the dust, but a pretty big problem here.

Why did you use a LQ Raw? When there's a HQ Raw for Manga Editor?

Pretty awesome for your first piece.

 

[spades]

ok, i'll leave the grays then.
haha, i didn't know there's a HQ raw.. (yes, im stupid)
next time, i'll find HQ raws to clean
Is there anything i need to work on? any suggestions?
thx for replying me (I thought everyone thought it was bad, that's why no one replied )

It looks very nice to me. Only things I really have are little ones. In the bottom left hand corner, the light-haired dude's hair needs a bit of redrawing because some of the lines are splotchy. Also the white outline of the same dude in the upper left hand corner is pixel-y, I don't know if you can really do anything about this, or if you did anything to make it this way (Overleveling white maybe?).

But overall, a very good job.

i'll try to make lines less splotchy next time i make a clean (dunno how to though ,but will find out somehow).
haha, okay. I'll try to make my leveling skills better.
thanks rebel.

Gosh, I thought the same thing as rebel when I saw it, it looks pretty darn good for an LQ RAW. As for the "splotchy" part, er...if it was me I would try to mask that part off and then darken the lines to give the illusion that it was thick...by curves/levelling. As for the pixelly whites...maybe a technique is to select the white/select similar and then expand the pixels, then fill with white?

And er, I am a beginner...not sure if those techniques work, XD;;;

 

[spades]

i dun think ur a beginner
but thx for helpin me with the splotchy part
i guess the simplest way is to denoise it..

 

[Obxist]

try to denoise it a bit as they're from LQ scans,.. so the line will be less sharp and smooth ,... btw its a very nice job,.. you just need to learn how to denoise and more practising,..

 

[spades]

yep, i agree
i didn't know about denoising until after i did the scan
denoising's abit difficult, but i'm gettin the hang of it (i hope)
thx (btw, thx for ur reborn scans obxist)
