And always remember, swirly mustaches make a good comic great.
This is all really informative, thanks for making it!
Can you group layers in the version of Photoshop you have? I think it could really cut some time on your shading. I love groups, they're so nifty! XD
Also, I've tried the "stroke" version of making outlines for speechbubbles, but they come out all pixilated. Is there a way to get around that, do you know?

I've never heard of grouping, what is it?
Hmmm, what size was your image at?

If you make one layer, say the skin, and you want to shade it, make another layer directly above the first, and press control+g or go to Layer then Group with Previous. That way, when you shade on the new, grouped layer, you can only color where the initial layer covers. Basically, you can't go outside the lines (lines in this instance being whatever you colored with the "skin" layer) and you won't have to do the step of erasing the shading.
I don't recall. Is this something I'm going to have to just resize to get it to not be pixel-y? XD

Oooooooooh, neat! I so didn't know about that!
Well, I'm not sure, really XD But I know the smaller an image is, the more pixel-y it gets.

I know, I was really stoked when I first started playing with it. Now practically everything I do has groups. XD
Okie dokie, thanks. :3
