Description Some people sent me note on how I draw shadow and do the coloring, so I decided to make a short little tutorial. Very simpel and not so fully great. I will make some more tutorials in the future on how to draw Shadow in many different poses and how I draw hands and all that. I will also make tutorial on how I draw Sonic, knuckles tails etc in the future too ^^

This is awesome ^^ I used to be so good at shadow... Then I started to draw silver so much I can't draw his quills or shoes very well ;-;


(You should have put instead of "use photoshop" put something like "For best results, use photoshop or another good drawing program" ^^

We draw Shadow similarly.. But I've never set the layer to Multiply! What's that do?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

missyuna In reply to xXFireFoxGirlXx [2010-02-19 18:43:17 +0000 UTC]

it's to make sure when you brush over the lineart, it will not vanish, cause if you put it on "normal", the lines will disappear once you brush over it

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

xXFireFoxGirlXx In reply to missyuna [2010-02-19 18:45:27 +0000 UTC]

Ohh, I see. ^-^ I usually just make a new layer and colour under the lineart layer.
But I'll have to see how this technique works, too!
