Description alright! i've had a couple of people ask me how, and then said i should do a tutorial, so here it is. It might be confusing, cause i stink at showing people things, but...i did it and i'm proud of it ^.^

I need all the help I can get in this area, but I have Paint Shop Pro, so I may have to tinker with some of this to get the same results.

i have a few questions- once you set up the copy layer and hte in-between-y layer, which one do you color on? also, i CANNOT for the LIFE of my to make the gradient thingy transparent. I click onthe downy arrow and choose the transparent, but then i click on it, and the little gradient box is solid!

the in between layer is the one you color on, but make sure your copy is multiply.
ok, that one i think i'd have to look at, or...i can go through and screen cap that steps ?

Good tutorial, now I have to try your way to do highlights, that it seems interesting.
I use another complicated way, but I have to try this one

xxkorinxx In reply to kendre [2004-03-03 17:59:36 +0000 UTC]

thank you! yeah i had to go through a couple of websites and burt monroy to finally get mine down. what about you? how do you do yours if you don't mind my asking?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

kendre In reply to xxkorinxx [2004-03-03 21:34:03 +0000 UTC]

I don't mind at all!
Well... I color hair with the base color on a layer.
Than, on a new layer, I draw ligher lines with the brush tool as highlights. I 'smudge' these lines and then, selectin the hair area, I apply the pixelate> fragmet filter.
Ending, I change the highliths layer properties (usually I change them from Normal to Screen or Linear Dodge).
But again, I want to try your way too

ah! i see...i may have to try that! the one thing bad about me is i'm horrid with change, and ive just figured out this technique T.T it'll probably be ages before i figure out how to do it differently lol

lol, i'm glad i could help. and hopefully it makes sense. though i must admit, i books and other sites...and still they didn't have it simple enough for me, i just hope my version isn't too simple to where no one understands it..O.o;;

You have very nice artwork, byt the way..hence, i have you on my watch. I should probably learn how to color in photoshop sometime before I die....

xxkorinxx In reply to mangledogre [2004-03-03 16:45:23 +0000 UTC]

well if it makes it any easier for you, start out with PS5. I used it for the longest time and LOVED it, but i found out you can do more with layers with PS7...like color over the lines WITHOUT touching them o.o;; oooooooo, yeah i know...i've been in love ever since
and thank you i'm glad i've got a fan..well..O.o;; imma stop while i'm ahead and remove foot from mouth
