Description
BETA version.what I call "counter ligh"t is , in fact "reflected light".
It's just that, when i did this tutorial, I didn't knew what was the enlish word for what we call in France "lumiere rΓ©flΓ©chie"
You can d/l it right now, but come back in around 15 days to find an eventual new version with less mispelling or errors. (because I think there's mistakes here and there; for sure ! )
THIS tutorial was made using a pic that had some mistakes with the anatomy (mostly lips direction) It has been reviewed in the final pic, but not on the tutorial; but that don't change a thing, as it's all about coloring
)TUTORIAL TYPE : coloring tricks
TUTORIAL USE : to work faster, or to find new stuff to do.
TUTORIAL IS NOT FOR YOU IF: you want to learn how to color step by step !
leaving your opinion here is welcome too
DON'T FORGET: USE THE DOWNLOAD BUTTON TO READ THIS STUFF !!

I look at your pictures for a long time trying to learn how you did this or that, I don't care about there body (well I do get drawn in) But what I really stare at is there faces that's, how I want to draw them. With so much expression in them. I have you make a tutorial on that soon!!!!

Well I could. but honestly, to draw good expressions you just need ONE thing: a mirror !
Eventually learn a bit from cartooning. It's a good way to bring great expression with just a few lines !

Ah, thanks!
I mostly try to explain details more than a Complete stuff... It's more about the tricks... I never really saw the interest of following a "a to b" method. It's very unpersonnal,Knowing tricks is usefull; and you can devellop your own coloring style once you know a buuch of them

Thanks, dude, it's always nice to see how other people work. I'm just finally getting the hang of blue shadows.

blue shadows ?
Is that the correct name for what I called "counter lights" ?
I wish I could have the right name for that, I'm pretty sure it's not its english name :/

I believe the english term would be for that would be reflected light, but counter light makes sense. Or you could say chiaroscuro and sound smart, even though it doesn't make as much sense 8D

ah yeahthanks, "reflected light" makes even more sense that the french word for that (contre-lumiere = counter light) .
I think I'll correct this word soon
