Greetings.
Making game graphics is hard because of the grey colour that appears in my scanned images.
When I draw on a clean white A4 paper and colour the drawing, it looks good to me.
When I scan the paper, the white parts of the resulting image look grey! And even the coloured parts are affected; they look darkened.
The scanned image in the computer does not look as good as the original picture on the physical paper. It is that ugly grey colour, although the physical paper is bright white.
How can I make the scanned image look as bright and colourful and visually same as the physical picture?
To get an idea of my trouble, you can see the illustrations in my book: (Download) . I had to manually remove the grey parts with the Magic Wand in the graphics program GraphicsGale.
