Soo~ Here we go!! ^o^
I decided to make another Color Pencil tutorial, because I've gotten a lot of requests for a new one (The old one was... EVIL *__*) and I decided I wanted to finish one and inspire more people to try traditional art ^__^ It takes lot of practice... but practice makes perfect, right? <3
If you have any questions, feel free to ask! ^w^ I realize that the tutorial can be very confusing, so don't feel hesitant to ask anything! >w<

^.^ very nice! I try to color this way, but I never get the outlook I want xD
maybe if I use brighter colors...?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Try experimenting with the shades of the colors? ^o^
I tend to use a lot of bright colors, so that might be why I have a different outcome. However, I can't do many 'dark-themed' pictures just because I'm only comfortable with lighter colors~ ^^'
So just try different colors and see what the outcome is ;D
Good luck to you~!! <3
And thank you very much! ^w^ I hope you found it useful! <3

Nice
i only have one problem. It seems all your art only does one light sorce. Why not make multiple ones and some reflecting lights to add more depth and feel to the picture

I'm not very experimentive, am I? ^^'
I'll be sure to experiment more often with them ^__^
I think I need a few tutorials on them <3
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
just take a look outside and then see were and how light hits. Tutorials are great but you will need to learn on your own to make a good balance and to make your style even more yours then anyones

Yeah~ I'll do just that ^_^
Thanks for the suggestion~! <3

it's a really nice tutorial
I used to color traditional and not digital, but my scanner made the colors look ugly( he made them look darker, more grey and there was always a ugly stripe in the middle of the drawing 
So I color digital.
But mayby I will try a drawing traditional, because this tutorial really makes me want to do that xD
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
You should~! ^__^
It's very fun!!
T^T Aww~~
Have you tried adjusting the colors via photoshop?
*_* I'd love to see you do traditional! I'm sure it would look great~! <3

I have actually didn't try to fix it in photoshop... I will try it next time xD
Here is a drawing I colored with pecils: [link]
I don't have must patience to color smooth and soft, and my pecils are not really good>.<

great tutorial ^^ i was really interested ^^
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Really informative! I think you did a great job with using the before and after pictures! (I know scanning/copying after each step is very tedious 
I guess as a suggestion I'd recommend using bullet points or numbered steps since reading a wall of text can make things a bit more difficult
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
*__* It is! But...i t's completely worth it~!!
Okay! ^__^ I'll do that next time! <3
I didn't do it this time because I was worried it would make the tutorial too long~ ^^'
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Haha, yeah ^^
I wouldn't worry too much about length when writing a tutorial. Your main goal should be to teach people in a clear way; so if that takes a little longer, so be it. Nothing's worse than trying to follow a tutorial that is too concise or too cluttered

XD
Okay, I'll keep that in mind for next time!
