Description 2017/07/27 I made another tutorial but it's far more advanced than this one: New Tutorial

================
A simple (maybe) cell shading tutorial for SAI~ xD
hope you enjoy it and understand it, cause my english are so bad. ;;3;;
I rarely coloring cell-shading using SAI, I always used photoshop. this technique usually I use to make a quick and simple coloring, while phtoshop is for the detailed coloring.

last but not least, I'm still an amateur artist that needs to be critiqued to improved. so, don't hesitate to critique or comment this piece.

(P.S for azusami hun, daku pinjem aotorinya ya, abisnya warna rambutnya asik buat di shading >3< //slap)

AoiHaneul [2013-07-10 00:56:03 +0000 UTC]

thank you for your tutorial! ^ ^ I was wondering how you color the base in Photoshop and how you import it back to SAI. And what Photoshop do you use??

ahjojing In reply to AoiHaneul [2013-07-16 13:48:20 +0000 UTC]

you're welcome in SAI you can "save as" photoshop file, simply select the file format and change it to .PSD file, but I don't use photoshop for base anymore, because it's so time consuming
