Yes! Version TWO! Please check it out<3

------

Yess. A tutorial, I will probably end up submitting a newer version once I find errors and stuff. I meant for this to be funny but that idea sorta just sailed away. ):

This is just the basics. I might (push on might) make a separate tutorial on how to shade hair/skin/eyes/etc. So, part two will come out next month or something. rofl.

Sorry for any English mistakes, spelling, and so forth. If you have questions or need help, note/comment me! Oh and, sorry about my crappy explanation of clipping masks/grouping. xD

I have a little problem, I tried to do the brush settings, but it looks like always. My question is: Do I have to change something on shape dynamics or smoothing?
Thanks

one of the most helpful cel shading tuts i've read. i appreciate how you go into more detail about using geometrical shapes and 'not shading by the lineart'. i found it very useful. (also, i thought version one of the tut was better that version 2. not sure why. :S)
