Description Ok, since people seem to like the way I use colour pencils so much here goes a little tutorial!
Just as I promised! I hope it is helpful! ^^

PLEASE READ:
- IF YOU EVER RESORT TO THIS TUTORIAL OR USE TIPS FROM IT LET ME KNOW! ^^ I WOULD LOVE TO SEE THE RESULTS!
- Sorry for the poor quality of the photos...
- This is just a SUGGESTION! I don't really know how to use pencils properly: this is just merely stuff I've learned from my own personal experience using this medium and I'm completely self-taught! I'm not saying that my way of colouring is better then any other!

Yes CG 's hard for me too...that's why I switched because I've been drawing ever since I could hold a pencil.

A-Xofia In reply to bootilixious [2005-12-27 14:38:46 +0000 UTC]

I know what you mean! I used to be like that too. but once I took the time to make it slowly and nice and I liked the result so much that I started to have a little more patience with it!
Thankies dear!

A-Xofia In reply to Without-Eyes [2005-12-27 14:35:07 +0000 UTC]

lol ...it took less time then what I was expecting... It took maybe 1hour and a half + the time it took to take the photos during the process. but I'm not sure about that time, may have took less.
I would love to see one of these done by you!

holy--this is genius.. I'll just go ahead and add this to my favorites.. just in case I ever end up trying to color something. Not that this is very likely to happen, but, one can always dream.

And... may I ask, what kind of paper do you use?

A-Xofia In reply to Chenria [2005-12-27 14:30:23 +0000 UTC]

Thankies! I'm really pleased to hear it looks helpful!
I use...errr...I dunno what the name is in english It's said "papel de cavalinho" in portuguese It's a sort of paper that is thicker and has more texture then regular printer paper, but not as much as watercolour paper. it's somewhere in between!

Chenria In reply to A-Xofia [2005-12-27 14:51:29 +0000 UTC]
