Description
Um, I'm sorry ! I don't know how to make a tutorial, plus my English isn't fluent, so here you go: A tutorial of how I color in steps, yes I skipped some because my PC lagged !I'm just trying to tell you all that my coloring is not pretty. Not everyone is born with a keen sense of colors, sure it might be easy for some artists to tell what color goes well with what. But the secret of wonderful coloring lies in the Hue & Saturation/ Brightness & Contrast tabs. As you can see, as an example, I used very dull colors at first, and then edited them.
This is very easy once you get the hang of it !
Brightness & Contrast is better in Photoshop CS, in my opinion ( I learned this trick from Photoshop first ), Press CTRL + L and adjust the tabs.
When I first learned this, I used to draw completely black and white and grayscale paintings( as in one layer), and then select the parts and adjust the hues !
I hope you all understand, my coloring is not pretty at all, they're just tricks of the trade.
The lineart is by ~SparkleStars724 : [link]
We will upload the full version soon !!
Thank you for viewing, I hope this helps you in at least some way !
Tools :
SAI, mouse, unimaginable amount of layers for the animation.
