Description Damn, this is big.

Super big.
It took longer to upload it than to do it.

I'm doing this one first because more people requested it. But I will do a lineart tutorial too.

Hope it helps!

Elisa belongs to me. Please don't use without permission.

*edit*

1) I made a mistake. The option is not "Combine Visible", it's "Merge visible".
2) The program I'm using is Photoshop CS3.
3) For those who asked, I did this with a mouse. I know it looks difficult at first but with practice coloring one character with this technique can take less than 15 minutes.

Para la gente que pregunto, si me queda tiempo, lo hago en espaΓ±ol.

Sorry for the edit >__>

Can I ask the question? When I have lineart and another layers below it do I really have to use lasso tool, couldn't I choose magical tool on lineart and change the layer? I use only mouse and I'm searching for easy ways XDD

Hmm tengo un problema... :S
Cada vez que uso la plumilla para hacer las sombras, me sale el relleno con un contorno negro, es decir, cuando relleno para aΓ±adir sombras, me sale una raya en el contorno :S

DarkNyan75 [2009-08-23 17:07:25 +0000 UTC]

... -snaps fingers- THAT'S how you get such nice hair shade. The gradient tool. I never even thought of that.

Now I shall patiently wait to see the lineart with the pen tool and find out how you make such nice lines of varying width and such.

Thanks again for taking the time to do these tutorials for people!
