Which scan will/did you start with, and why?

I started with the Kuragehime scan, partly because I was the most familiar with that series, and mostly because I thought it would take the longest with all of the dress detail XD

Share an in-progress shot of a detail you're really proud of.

Share a tip you discovered while making your set :3

I use the lasso tool a lot when I'm coloring my scans. I feel like the brushes in GIMP are too clunky to get a nice fine line, so I use it a lot for detail work. I also use it at the beginning when I'm just putting in the base colors because it's a lot faster to outline areas and use the bucket vs. painting it in "by hand".

Which scan is the hardest to work with, and why is it such a challenge?

The Kamisama Kiss scan was the most trubling so far.
I've already made an icon for it, but I'm not really fond of it (it's very experimental, 'cause I really got no clue about what I was doing), so I think I'm gonna try again once I'm done with the other icons.
