How To Get Cool Colored Lines In Your Photoshop Illustrations

Take a look at the two images above. Astute observer that you are, you'll notice that the illustration on the left is drawn with pure black lines, while the one on the right has more subtle colored lines. Both images are fine, but usually I prefer to use colored lines whenever possible. It gives the illustration a kind of animated feature feel, and just seems more polished.

But Bob, you're pleading? How can I get cool colored lines in my illustrations too? Get up off the floor and stop begging and I'll show you.

Rat Race

I was trying to capture the feeling of misery and the grim determination needed to drag yourself day after day into a job that you hate.

I picked the least appealing color scheme I could think of, full of desaturated urine-ish yellows, pea greens and drab beiges. The coffee rings are real and scanned in.
