Description
Look - another tutorial! :'DI mean... sth that will probably give you more hints about my techniques than all the walkthroughs..
Anyway, I wasn't sure if I should also explain all the steps in the description, but just in case my handwriting isn't cool enough for ya, I will:
1. I made a really lousy sketch, p/ much just to get a fair idea of what I'll be doing. xD
2. I colour it in, shading on the way - also just so you know, I don't use separate layers to shade.
I also colour the line art with different colours that I like..
3. I start painting over it. Most of it is just mixing two colours and spreading them at some place on the painting. Also making fur textures and such. OH and one more important thing - from step 2 I merge the layers and starting working with only one layer~
4. I pick colourful colours and just, using a low opacity brush, spread them all over the place. xD
5. I paint over it all, mix the colours and add a contrast. Actually at many times I use 2 contrasting colours.. often one is yellow/pink and the other sth dark.
So ya, hope you enjoyed this and maybe you can try it out yourself at some point! If so, I'd love to see! :'D
Thanks,
-Kyl

OMG YAY YOU MADE IT ;0; <333
Okay so for coloring the sketch do you just color it with random colors? Or do you match the line art colors with the character's markings colors? Is this just a preference kind of thing? Then do you keep the sketch layer separate while you begin to shade and paint?Β

haha YUS
it was pretty fun! c: Although I must say that every time I paint I kind of do it differently, so there's never a certain thing that I do, but I guess this thing.. gives the basic idea!
Firstly, yeah, sort of?? I mean, when the oc is brown I don't make pink outlines mostly, but sometimes I indeed choose the colours randomly. xD It's way more fun! But it depends if you want a um... 'natural' coloured piece or this more ''artsy'' kind~
Secndly, nope, I merge them, because working with a lot of layers drives me crazy and I often start making wrong things on the wrong layer, so it's way easier for me to just work with oneΒ
//I'm stupid I know xD
