Awwh man xD
I've never used photoshop, so I really don't have a clue.
You have to pay for CS3 though, right?

But hey, that's fine c:
The tutorial is very helpful anyways~!

I love seeing how other people draw <3
This is very cool. I would never think to use such a saturated color for shading, but it really looks lovely!

Jirbytaylor In reply to ??? [2011-02-23 00:49:40 +0000 UTC]

Awesome, I might try (vaguely XD;) following this for my next picture.

The step pictures seem slightly inconsistent though. The image in step 8 has the lineart affected by the airbrush additions to the shading layer, but you don't mention manipulation of the lineart or of putting the shading above it.

AtomicFishbowl In reply to Jirbytaylor [2011-02-23 03:55:18 +0000 UTC]

create a clipping mask on your lineart layer, select what ever tool you want to use, and select a darker shade of the color touching the lineart. If if the lineart is overlapping a color and you don't know what color to pick, pick the color that is also overlapping the other color.

for example, falvie's leg is overlapping augi, so choose the shaded green instead of the shaded white.
