Description Speedpaint: RWBY Ruby Coloring Speedpaint

This is the drawing steps of my artwork below


========
Steps:
1. Sketch. Sketch the pose and composition.
2Lineart. Just do the tedious lining...
3. Base Color. Fill in base colors, each color was in separated layers.
4. Shading & Lighting. When shading this, I choose a light & saturated color to keep the artwork bright. I use normal layer for shading & various other layers for lighting.
5. Glow. Make some glow and I also duplicate the character layer, gaussian blur it, then turn it into screen & multiply mode to smoothing the overall artwork.
6. Finishing. Adjust the color using color balance and tone curve. Also give some background effects.

*throughout the steps, I often fix some mistake + adjust the hue, saturation, and luminosity.

Software: MangaStudio EX 5
Drawing Tablet: Huion 680TF

I hope it's useful <3

I really like this one!
Do you find coloring line art important? In this illustration it looks like you kept your lines black. In previous tutorials you color the line art. I was wondering what you think about coloring line art and when you do are you just choosing colors darker than the section you're painting?

Kinda important maybe, at least don't leave it pure black when the artwork was bright.
The main purpose of lineart for me is to keep the contrast and give shape. Generally the more visible the lineart, the more anime/cartoon-ish it will become. The less lineart, the more realistic it becomes (if handled right).

For this one, It's not black actually, it's dark red-brown. I keep the color uniform for every part of lineart, which is the easiest solution.
For this kind of uniform lineart color, I choose a color that is darker than the darkest color of the character.
And why I choose red-brown because it's a majority of the overall color. If the majority was blue, I might choose dark purple-blue lineart.

If the majority of the illustration was blue but lets say the hair was blonde; Would you most likely still keep your lineart a uniform color of purple-blue or would you change the dark purple-blue in the blonde hair?

yea I probably will change the hair lineart to brown..It's just depend on what's looking good in my eyes, I didn't stick on one rule or something like that.
