Changing Colour of Lines?

[PARAMED1K]

I've tried to google how to change a line's colour and even for photoshop but found nothing that worked - I tried doing a layer with an overlay effect but it doesn't work completely, only the less opaque edges.

I want to know to change a black line's colour completely into another colour, not halfway. Reason is because I start sketching in black and when I eventually move onto colouring, it's a real pain to redo all the lines again in a different colour.

1. Create new layer on top of the layer you want to recolor.
2. Fill the new layer with the color you want to use
3. Click the button before the lock button on top of the layer window or right click the new layer and click the "Clipping to layer below"

Done? Is that what you're looking for?
Hope that helps.

ps: alternatively, for step 3 you can use CTRL+SHIFT+G instead when the new layer is selected.

Or just turn on that padlock icon to lock the layer's alpha (transparency) and from there color it however ye want.

It's this icon right here: http://prntscr.com/a5jnma

Keep in mind that if you wanna edit the lines themselves, you'll need to turn that back off.
