Just like Anthony Warlow, I'm Back in the Swing with my 35th colouring tutorial. Thought he looked rather pale in the original picture ((with that ruffle-liscious hair ... !)) so here's one to sprouce up the skin and - you guessed it - the blues.
I just had to, okay? With hair like that ... could you resist?!
NOTE: If you are a newbie to icon making and you don't understand what's written here, you can always ask me or refer to my
22nd Colouring Tutorial, which was written entirely for beginners ((hence why it explains all the basic steps)).
NOTE 2: If you use, please credit! Don't steal my icons and tuts and claim them as your own 'cause I will FIND OUT WHO YOU ARE.
*ahem*
NOTE 3: I don't know if this actually works on PS as when I opened the .psd in PS the image looked a lot different to when I opened it on PSP ... plus I can't find Fade Correction on PS. Asked a friend who has PS and she isn't aware of that function. Sorry PS users.
