Just wanted to highlight some different coloring techniques I found throughout DA. Most of these tutorials are for Photoshop. A few highlight other programs.
I have collected these great tutorials over the years from DA and want to make it easier for everybody to find just the right kind of coloring tutorial without having to search through all of DA. This is mostly focused on anime/manga and cartoon coloring styles. All tutorials are copyright their respective owners.

Because DA no longer accepts as much thumbnails as before - part II has been moved here Coloring Walkthrough part IIIt seems DA is no longer accepting as much thumbs as before. So I am afraid I have to split the journal I have made in the past. Sorry guys.

Seems DA no longer accepts this many thumbs or something. It did before. I guess I have to split the journal in two.

This is another great one, on coloured light and how to make your pictures suddenly really realistic (at least I think I couldn't see it in your list... so many o.o ): [link]

And another by the same artist that also can be really useful, on making a unified colour palette (in other words how to make the picture look like it's all under the same light and fit together): [link]
