yep it's me so here goes......

raw:


cleaned:



I think I made it too dark? And it doesn't have borders (unable to find any guide for that for the moment ). Anyway, that's my first time ever making a clean or even touching adobe for that matter. I spent 'bout 30+ minutes doing all that and it's all thanks to those people who posted their guide on the web (mainly to Kalendel's Idiot guide to editing manga).

Hmm Nice one
just practice more and try pages like Naruto

Thanks and will do.

I also fixed the images, sorry!!

Oh and can you guys tell me where I can get my hands on those raws?

clean 2-3 pages and write the time when you done XD

Sorry it took so long!! I never knew cleaning naruto scans were HARD! But I did clean 'em up to the extent of my skills so anyway...

Raw 1:

Took me about 2+ hours cleaning this page.I manually leveled the white bands on the page. Cloned some action lines on the 2nd panel and cloned the uniform on panel 5.

Raw 2:

This one is fairly easy and took me no more than 40 minutes to do this XD

Raw 3:


Edited 3:


This one took me 1.5 hours. I manually leveled some uneven white bands and partially finished cloning the action lines on panel 3.

I can't seem to get a hold of a good tutorial for doing greys maybe you guys can give tips or links, thanks.

Very Nice I think you are ready

my cleaning based on it and take 10minutes/page

Thanks and thank you for the link, that denoising program will really help me out.
I'm currently trying to speed up my cleaning skills to 30 minutes per page given it doesn't have much redrawing needed. I'm also trying to clean greys and after that fiddling with colors.
This guy's cleaning skills made my passion for cleaning BURN!!! (with anger and jealousy! )

I know im not there yet but I really want my cleans to look like that (well someday + luck + perseverance )

I'm not going to start a flame war, but i'll just say good luck with your future cleans...
