Description ENGLISH
English version of a photoshop coloring tutorial, it's originaly made for two friends and , but I hope it can help you all.
It looks kind of long =_= but that's because it has a lot of image references, I think it's better that way...
It's separated on various parts:
-Base colors.
-Masks.
-Shading.
-Lighting and eyes.
-Color for a pencil-made lineart.
-Bright on hair.
-Final effects.
Please sorry if you notice that my english is horrible xD.

Step by step


I have to thank for the DD!

Éste es el photoshop cs, pero generalmente las opciones no cambian mucho en distintas versiones. Cuál tienes tú?

I've just got adobe illustrator, now I have to lear how to use it. Is it better than ps? or just different?

Bonesy24 In reply to Lumaga [2008-05-06 21:23:22 +0000 UTC]

its way different. its not photo editing, its using the pen tool to trace around images to turn them into... uh... man... i dont remember what the files are called. EPs? i dont remember.
at first its real hard, but after alota practice you get the hang of it and start learning tricks and stuff like that

kelz017 [2008-04-24 04:51:47 +0000 UTC]

It looks very helpfull, I just have one question... I did a lineart and scanned it on, except it came up as just the background. How do I put this onto a different layer like yours? Thanks!

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Lumaga In reply to kelz017 [2008-04-27 17:47:33 +0000 UTC]

(using photoshop) That always happens when you scan something. You have to pres M key (on the keyboard to make the selection tool appear), select all the drawing with that tool, cut it with Ctrl+X, then paste it with Ctrl+V. When you paste the drawing it will appear on a different layer, then you put that layer on Multiply mode and you can start coloring : )
