I learned to convert hand made cartoon in digital form using the GIMP. It can be donw using almost all the softwares. All you have to do is , draw a sketch from pencil /pen etc.
Draw it complete and place the dialogue box and plan everything before.
just like I did as shown in below given picture.
Now scan it or better take a pic of it from the camera , i took the pic from the camera instead of scanning.
Now , create a new layer and using the pen tool mark the lines ,curves as you drew.
Yes it is time consuming but thats the perfect way of doing that.
Then , close all the openings and erase the extra lines .
Now your pic is ready to be coloured.
Add a new layer and add the shades to your pic in red colour ....dont worry , we will change the colour later.
Now merge the layer and delete the original pic .
Now colour them using the fill option .
And it will look like this .

Gimp is an amazing way to digitalizae your art and crafts, I will soon be posting an article in details on doing that, so stay tuned for more updates meanwhiel just draw and digitalise your work.
