its a layer option, anything you do on that layer effects the one below it. but ONLY the one below it. So that means if you make a clipping group layer above your outline, you can scribble colours all over and it will only effect the outline.
No need to clean up :3

Oh, so we're supposed to colour over the outline on another layer above the outline? Thanks a bunch, you've really helped me!

Yep! if you want it coloured its very simple to do it that way, if you look back at the skin part and see the layer screen cap, it shows you what it should look like

This is really awesome. ouo
Personally, I do bold outlines when I'm drawing normally, but I use colored outlines when I do pixel dolls and stuff like that.

Ohh it works on pixels very much so.
I can never decide between multi colour or single colour.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah. I usually do multi, which then depends on what colors I used in the particular area.
Kind of a pain, but I think it looks nice.

I keep meaning to try that. But I end up getting carried away with the colour

Ahhhhhh I know that feeling. D:
Though it's more of a "I keep meaning to do x, but I end up getting caught up doing y, which is completely different from x or anything vaguely related to x" sort of thing. lol
Either way, I hate when that happens. XP

Awesome tutorial, But you could use a lot less layers if you use the preserve opacity option instead of a clipping group, it acts the same way but you don't need to use another layer

Oh! Nice :D Thanks for the tip!

This is wonderful! One thing though. Could you explain how you color the part of the hair over the eye? I can't seem to think of how you get it semi transparent and over the line art too also with the rest of the hair not being transparent too. o.o

ah! I did miss that out.
I actually use the clipping group. To apply a faded look. It also helps to gently erase ( on the lightest setting )
Over the eye, it makes it transparent. Those are two ways of doing it.
It's easiest just to lightly erase
