[393]pg 14-15 First try at colouring!

[Skrangle]

Hello! This is my first try at colouring a manga, I was pretty satisfied with it until I came in here and saw what you people can do. You guys are really good!

But anyways, here's my first colouring attempt (I know there's a lot more that can be done, but I feel like I dont have the skills to do them yet )

Yeah it's nice for a first time.
I dunno but it seems that u are using the burn tool, r u?
If u are just don't, that's my tip, try choosing a darker colour for your shade and then colouring with your preference brush, it will have much more consistence in the colours and don't exitate to pick up colours from a reference if u don't know how to pic them ^-^

Yeah, I was mostly using the dodge tool. I tried to use the burn tool a little (started inside the ears), but that didnt turn out any good

The dodge tool works well for lighting though, I think

Thanks for the pointers

when using burn-tool set mode to "highlight" and not shadows.
And color the blacks.
(PS: That wasn't meant to be racist :P )
