Yoko Scanning Techniques Anonymous
Hey /hr/

I'm scanning the Yoko book that came out, and I was planning to clean up the scans first. Here's an example one I've done so far. I saved it PNG since red compresses a lot with JPEG. Scanned @ 600DPI with "more blur" noise ninja and 50% size reduction. Compared to: http://moe.imouto.org/post/show/15517/cheerleader-tengen-toppa-gurren-lagann-yoko

Anything that needs improving or should I carry on like this?

Thanks.

Here's another one. I don't adjust the colors, these are the defaults on my scanner. Had to make it slightly smaller in pixels because it passed hr's file size limit as a PNG.

1200 DPI image would be interpolated from a 600DPI.

I'm wondering, how are you scanning the pages? Still attached then clean up the image? File/saw the spine off? The hairdryer method?

Awesome OP!
Please keep up the excelent work!

Also, I'd love to know what method you're using to scan the pages like>>293247asked.

Thanks for those scans, too!

The book wasn't very well bound (glue), so when I laid it flat to scan, pages popped right out. Since it was already coming apart, I took it the rest of the way.

I will upload more later. Food now.

Excellent, thank you. And Bon Appetite.

If you don't mind, post it later on in full on a Megaupload or a torrent, rather than posting it directly on /hr/. Though samples and teasers are always welcome.

Amazing scanner you have there! What's the model?

You're only applying ninja blur more, right? Awesome job there.

Scans need levels adjustment. Blacks are too grey.

Excellent job man. Scans would never look that high quality at that size. Vectors always have their own merits, but there's still a lot of difference in the gradients and line art from the original to the vector.

My scanner is a cheap ass Canoscan Lide 40. I don't think it's about the scanner, most give the same raw image. It's what you do from there that counts.

>>293382
I adjusted the levels on this one to make it darker.

Thanks, but I don't like signing up to sites to upload a few pictures. Feel free to upload them yourself.

true and for this matter I ll always prefer the scans over vectors.
seems like everyone is fan of vectors now, but I still think they lack something, it's just too much paintish.
