Description
I hope this is helpful! I received many requests for tutorials but putting together a full tutorial will take a lot of time. This is not a complete step-by-step process, but it covers my general process. This tutorial assumes you know the basics of photoshop. If you are unsure of where anything is, try it out in PS or use google for help. I know it can seem complex and confusing at first, but you'll get the hang of it! Best of luck!Tips:
- Shade on multiply layers
- highlight on color dodge or linear dodge layers
- sometimes you can shade and highlight on the same layer! Make sure that layer is set to overlay!
Great Brush Packs:

This is lovely! Always fun to see other artists' processes, so thanks for sharing. I think the thing I've been struggling with the most is coloring my linework. I usually just pre-select the linework color and use it in the beginning rather than adjust it later (which is more ideal, but I haven't figured out how, haha). D:

Thank you so much Quay! I'm really glad it's helpful. I always color my lines after I'm done with shading and highlighting, otherwise you won't know how dark or light to make the lines!

I'm glad it is helpful It should translate into Sai as well if that's what you use (except the brush packs of course)

Yes I'm a Sai user X) probably the only reason I would like photoshop is for the brushpacks ;3;

Thank you so much for this, and amazing job! I know this probably took a lot of patience/organization (or not?? I'd get frustrated so easily) but I'm sure this'll be super helpful to people who follow you <3 And for a first tut, it looks like you did a great job!
Thank you again!! <33

This one actually didn't take too long but a more in depth guide could take hours to make...so I'm hoping this will suffice for the most part! Thank you, I'm so glad it's helpful!

encharmed In reply to Tazihound [2015-12-20 16:56:56 +0000 UTC]
Yeah, in-depth ones could drive anyone nuts.
No problem <3 I think it suffices pretty well! ^^

Man, I never would have thought to use settings like color dodge and linear dodge! I usually shy away from them because I'm not familiar with them, but this makes me want to play with 'em for sure! Great tutorial, Tazi!

Tazihound In reply to Umbrafen [2015-12-20 16:56:00 +0000 UTC]
I love the color dodge and linear dodge options, they just really make the image stand out! It can be a trick finding the right color to use though, I recommend going for a orange, pink, or red hue and lowering the opacity a bunch!
