Description Umm well the TITLE says "coloring tutorial" but perhaps it ended up being more of a process.
This tutorial is more for intermediate artists who wanna get familiar with digital painting techniques.
I really wanted to help people out with some of the basic stuff, that I know I struggled to figure out.

If you have questions for me though, I'll be happy to try and help or refer you to someone who can.

This has some great colouring techniques, especially the hair! It'll help with my colouring as I'm a doodler, nowhere near master (not in this lifetime anyway )

I'm glad it actually helps! I was worried that it may not be explained clearly enough for some people.

This will really help me in the future. I've always seen something off in the colouring, I guess it must have been the shading.

But mostly it's just been my horrible lineart.

Thanks anyway, this was great and I'll definitely use it.

Ooh, nice! Too bad I have no tablet and only Photoshop Elements.

Some of the text (especially blue) is hard to read on the pink, and hurts my eyes.
