eighteen; massive holidays post!

[atemu_mana]

Hello, everyone! I'm currently on mid semester and Eid holidays. One week's over, so another week to go. I took the precious time, besides resting, to complete a few colourings. I wonder if ten colourings are considered as ' a few' -- haha? Also, simple icons for all of you. :)

Wow! I really like the way you colour these. Have you, by any chance, made a tutorial for colouring? Or do you have a guide that you usually reference too? I'm currently learning how to colour and I'm in need of advice. :)

I just +watched from dA too. :)

I made a tutorial before but it followed my old colouring style which uses layers and polygonal lasso tool. My current colouring style involves a mix (which still uses my old style + new style) and more of messing around while colouring. I don't usually reference others since I have a hard time (or... more like dislike) following step-by-step and I don't bookmark the tutorials.

But... I am thinking on making a tutorial. I'll think about it. :)

Thank you!

Oh I see. I guess people have different styles, and it really depends on what you're comfortable with.

I'll be waiting, if ever you decide to make one. I see you're also a part of manga_colors, it would be awesome if you post it there too. I'm sure a lot f people would appreciate it. :)

Exactly. Some people like to use strong, thick colours but there's also people who prefer soft, pastel colourings like me. It all depends on your own style. I did guide one of my friends in colouring and she has her own style now. :)

Will do, thanks!
(TBH. I suck at writing a tutorial.)

It's no problem. As long as I can learn new things from your tutorial, that's more than enough.
