Flatter
A
flatter is a
coloring specialist within the
comic book industry that prepares the inked or sketched comic book page for the colorist with digital art software such as
Adobe Photoshop. The specialist does so by selecting the objects on the page and filling them in with a solid color called a "flat", so that the "flats" can be used by the colorist by way of the "magic wand" tool. In this way, the colorist may select each object during the rendering process-to the exclusion of the other objects on the page-so that the object's base color may be changed, or to render the colors.
