Description
Video at: [link]Since I had some requests to share any methods I learned. This video is very basic but all the info is there. This just tells you how to get a good solid color base from a grayscale painting. This method works for anything, any skintone, any object etc.
This method (or any method really) is best if you colorize a grayscale painting BEFORE you have "finished" it. As in, before you've added all your super refined detail and texture etc.
I'll likely make a better version of this later, once I've refined the method a bit but...yeah.
If you enjoy this please comment and let me know what you think.

You're very welcome.
It makes sense. I'm glad because personally I think my voice is a little annoying. I slur way too much and I think I sound like a 12 year old.XD

::wail:: Sorry. I don't know what went wrong. My mic and the recording software were up as loud as it would go. But...ah you know I used my front mic plugin...maybe it's better in the back...I think I'll try another version of this later and try to correct the sound.

Nice! ^^ I was one of those who requested the tutorial.
You show off the technique very well and you clearly explain what you are doing etc.

Yeah I don't know what happened with the audio. My mic was up all the way and I was talking fairly loud. I have to fix that somehow...
