Tip: If you're using AntiAliasing (like me) you would have to set your bucket to expand 1 pixel.

this helped so much for super basic beginners like me, thankyou thankyou so mcuh, I still suck a lot, but I think I'll get better with more practice :3
what do you think helps one to decide what colour to use as a base or second base? do they have correlation?
👍: 0 ⏩: 2
also how much should I lower the opacity for the first shade colour after flats? (the pink one in your tutorial)
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
I’m so glad to hear this!!!! You defo will if you keep at it ouo)/
Do you mean the shading color? That one I choose based on if I want the picture to feel warm or cold when you look at it! And to decrease the intensity of the color I’ll usually use a color of a different temperature to reduce the intensity a little (Ie if I use pink I might use blue to balance it since pink is usually warm and blue is usually cold)
I recommend reading into color theory to learn more! It’s a lot of that and a lot of practice and just learning what looks good ouo)/

Hello there! OvO/
I did the steps on the cell shading for practice, and Here's the result. And By cool colors, I mean what specific colors do you use for the highlights?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
It looks really awesome, good job!! Uhhh, in the tutorial I used a yellow sort of color for the highlights tbh??

what layer do I color on after clipping, and why isnt it keeping the color in the lines?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
i.gyazo.com/f744bbab8771aea233… This might help you a bit!! The base color you have to manually keep inside the lines btw; it’s only the shading/highlighting you don’t have to worry about if you follow this guide!

On step four, is the new layer above the flats?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I'm just a bit confused about clipping the shade layer to your "chain". ^^
Other wise, thank you for this tutorial! This helped a ton with my FA experience!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
You see how in the image there’s a picture that has “layer 11” clipped to “base”?? That’s the chain ouo)/ you just continue to clip layers to that “base” layer (or, the chain of layers already clipped to it)

Ah, okay. That makes much more sense. Thank you!

Heya! Just wanna ask. What brush did you use for your line art?
I'm currently finding custom brushes for lineart for FireAlpaca but I can't seem to find any :/ Thanks for replying in advance!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
It’s a custom pencil nib brush I made ouo)/
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
I dnt understand when I put base color, the color paints over my line art. This is so frustrating (T-T)
👍: 0 ⏩: 2
Make another layer and put the color layer under the lineart.
