Description Full view please

This is my tutorial on how to color on using Dodge and Burn tool. Lastly, I learned on coloring CG with the Dodge and Burn for the effect. Now, I use these entirely without any shadow and highlight colors except for the base color. This is my challenge on using this, so I made this tutorial to share my technique. Sorry if there's a grammar error for this, and I didn't put some procedures on hair.

You can also use this technique either on pen or a mouse (usually I use mouse).

Just download it to your PC. Use this for your personal reference. If you want to use for commercial, you have to get permission by me.

Enjoy! ^_^

Erm.... I understood the entire tutorial but I didn't understand the cleaning part. Can you tell me, please? I'm sorry. >.<

Cleaning lines? OK.
In brightness and contrast, you need to move the level to the right on both brightness and contrast until the lines are more darker, the "dirts" disappear a bit, and whiter the background. Then use the eraser tool to removed the remaining "dirt" that cannot removed totally from the first, and erase the unnecessary lines.

So, my matte should be white then? This could take a while since I'm a perfectionist. >.<
