Description Part three of the color-Freya-to-completion tutorial, this time the hair! Click to view--again, it's a pretty big file (about 1 MB)

Again, check out the previous steps to figure out how we got here:

Part 1 [link] - cleaning up the sketch, coloring skin and eyes
Part 2 [link] - clothing and lace

And for a similar tutorial on hair, but in Painter...
Hair Tutorial for Painter [link]

Hopefully, this makes some sort of sense... Let me know if you need clarifications! ^^

I have Photoshop 7.0...all i really thought that *shilin* has the most beautiful artwork and especially
for tutoring everything about coloring...when i saw you commenting, that you have the same way of coloring i really came here for more information about it...i really need to see you coloring on photoshop
like shilin,because i suck at coloring...just want to know everysteps of it ^w^
