*Kao taos several times* I am Kuro Waza, for quite some time I've been trying to inhance my skill but they are below medioce compaired to yours. *Bows so deeply that his forehead is presssing on the floor* You just have to teach me how do you draw so well? How do you CG color your drawings? How do you do that coloring of the inked lines? How do you do that Anatomy! Please, you must share with me the knowlege of some of your skills. I will be forever grateful if you are willing to teach me.

Argh thank you for the compliment but don't say that please.. I am really not a "master" ^^;

Well I can't really tell how to do anatomy.. this is really about work and only work. So sketching again and again until you "grasp" some things :)

And for CG coloring, I would recommand tutorials as there is not really a miracle technique.. this is more about experiencing and find wich one suits you the best :)

However I can help you on coloring lines as it is technical ^^
There is 3 possible ( I think ) ways to do that ( I work on photoshop )

-First way :

Select your line layer, Go to image, adjustment, hue/sturation then check the box "colorize".
There you go. You can now adjust it at your will.

Pro : very fast to do
Con : It don't really color the line.it color what is not black, so the border of the line. Meaning if your line is sketchy it will work wonderfully well. If
it is a tick and well inked line it will be almost useless


-Second :

Select all your line layer ( CNTL A )
Invert it ( CNTL I )
Copy your selection ( CNTL C )
Erase it it ( SUpr )
Now switch in mask mode ( Q )
Paste ( CNTL V )

Normally black has become red and white is transparent

Now switch back in normal mode ( Q )

Et voilà ! Now save your selection, that's your line selected ( even if the selection looks rough, it is actually VERY precise, just try ) and you can do whatever you want with it.

Pro : Works very well with a precise or tick inking
Con : Long to do ( better put in macro )
Work VERY BAD with sketchy lines.
It makes you work on your line with the selection active wich is quite annoying ><



-Third ( my favorite ) :

Select your line ( not the layer but the actual line ) ( for that Click CNTL on the line layer )
create a new layer and put a mask on it.
INVERT the layer mask
Fill the layer with black
Delete you Line layer

Et voilà ! Now you have a mask that will only retain your line, meaning you can do what you want, it will not "eat" the rest.

Pro : Works both with sketchy and regular lines ( but better with regular )
Allow you to work on it WITHOUT the selection active... This one makes all the difference for me ^^

CON : A bit complicated to do ( Also better to put it in macro )
If you want to modify your line, you have no choice but flatten it on white background and redo the process afterward wich can be tiedious..

I hope it helps :wink:

*bows deeply yet again. Thanx! And yeah, I know that there is no miricle tutorial to instantly draw very well. Its just that everytime I see a good CG the lining around the skin is never black and almost looks shaded. I have a program called Corell photo paint, it's like Photoshop's cousin from Canada. I've been melting my brain trying to figgure out how to do that. Thanx for the tips once again, I really appriciate it.
