Hey all, I'm scanning some hand draw images into photoshop at around 300dpi that were created on 8.5x11" paper. I'm planning on rendering these images, and then I need them to fill up an 11x17" page. If I scan the images in and then enlarge the image at 300dpi, it seems to really slow down PS when I'm trying to render it. The airbrush ,for example is really slow, as sometimes I have to use a size 900 brush. My question is, can I keep the image smaller while rendering, and then blow up at the end, or can I use a lower dpi? How will the image quality be? Thanks
