I've tried looking all over, but all tutorials seem to be for Photoshop. Does anyone know of a way to do something like this on Krita? Basically keeping the pencil lines so you can color underneath them? like what he does here:

I appreciate any help

The steps are almost the same. To erase the white color you can use the color to alpha filter.

your awesome! thank you so much!
