it's a while some are asking me how do I color, so finally I made a tutorial to show you xD

I didn't mean to use this pic for the tut, but in the end I preferred this way, after all I color also people using this same scheme
and then this pic had less layers than how many my usual pics do, so it was a bit easier to explain ^^

anyway I want to say this is just one of my ways of coloring, sometimes I use different ones, just making this clear (:
I don't think my way of coloring to be very difficult but I like it

ENJOY!

finished version => well..you already saw it xD

thank you for the DD! ^^ to ~simonsaz3 for suggesting and ^shelldevil for featuring!

For the line art what brush settings did you used? I like how thin the brush strokes are.

What kind of brush did you use? How did you make it look soft and smooth?
Can you please tell me?

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

sunshineikimaru In reply to WhenAngelsCries [2012-02-05 23:49:22 +0000 UTC]

preset one, probably number 13! you just have to check to have your brush's hardness to 0 and keep its opacity around 80 while drawing (=

sunshineikimaru In reply to iLuvWMGs [2011-12-14 19:26:54 +0000 UTC]

sdfjs maybe your tablet is not installed correctly? :/
or in PS look at the top right and see if size option is checked under "tablet options" !

sunshineikimaru In reply to Kinexuru [2011-11-18 10:19:35 +0000 UTC]

I do nothing, really, they're like that by preset (number 8 or 13 brush, or one around those)

Did you ink this? Because the fur is soo light, but when i ink it, it turns out really dark. Any help?

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

sunshineikimaru In reply to FTM100 [2011-10-29 16:32:00 +0000 UTC]

no, I never ink, I just do my outlines freehand, well..they're not real "outlines" xD; they're more like a cleaned up sketch.. that's why it looks softer ^^
maybe you can try using a lighter color, anyway?
