Ye Olde Tutorials

So I often get asked a number of questions regarding my art and how I colour and such, so I thought I might take some time to point attention to some tutorials I've written over the years.

While these tutorials might be a bit dated, the information (I think) is still relivant. I'm still debating if I want to write a new/updated one- any thoughts?

First off the bat. Photoshop.

Part 1: Basics ! Part 2: Inking
Part 3: Base Colour ! Part 4: Shading and Finishing touches

How to colour under a sketch

Soft shading and highlights

While I no longer promote shading with the burn tool *cringe* the rest of the processes however I will promote, including the highlights with the dodge tool. I still use that one to this day :)

And lastly Paint Shop Pro

Part 1: Basics ! Part 2: Inking
Part 3: Base Colours ! Part 4: Shading and finishing touches

These and more can be found over at my deviantArt Gallery under Tutorials.
