Description
Color me something beautifulSo that I may dance a vivid life...
Since I've almost put up all of my coloring tutorial [link] at this point, I figured I should upload some nice line art for people to play with. I had this picture drawn (with mechanical pencil) and lying around, so I decided to ink and scan it, and then ink it some more on the computer. Those of you who know my art know that I am absolutely terrible at inking, so I'm not quite sure what possessed me to want to ink this monster of a picture. The Photoshop pen tool helped immensely here. XD Probably my longest inking job in... forever. >D
Anyway, I'm not sure how conducive this is to an easy coloring job, but I figured with all the bells and whistles, It should at least provide for some creativity in the look-and-feel. So go at it! You guys are free to download this (the big version), print this out, color it either by digital or traditional means. And upload it when you're done! Leave a link on my front page or note me, and I'll take a look and comment. ^__^ I just ask that you guys give me credit for the line art when you're posting this on the web.
As for me, I might color this as well someday. Just... not anytime soon. XD

another thing you can do... just put the line layer on top of all your other layers and set that to mulitple instead of setting all the layers over it... I think it makes things a lot easier... >D
