:: It doesn't bother me if you use this tutorial step by step, but I recommend you to use it as a guide. The majority of the colouring I come up (sans this two tutorials) is a result of following some steps from different tutorials and add some tricks as more saturation, a color balance/selective colors/curves/levels/ layers.
:: If something is confusing, feel free to ask me anything.
:: This tutorial will not work on every Supernatural screencapture.
:: Supernatural fans, If any of want suggest a special episode or a special set of screencaptures to my newxt batch of icons, feel free.
:: Feel free to friend me. I don't bite peole. I swear!
