Oh wow. I'm envious; I can't color like that.
The second version with the shading looks great!

[aki_hikari]

SO FAST!!! I just posted it!
Aww, really? Thank you!
Manga coloring is a serious thing, I think. Haha, if we are lazy to make it, then anything won't be great lol. But, I'm sure you can do it too! ^____^

Thanks!

[in_monochrome]

Ah well, not really XD I just happened to be around at that time.
You're welcome.
I'm just too stupid for Photoshop and I still haven't figured out to color like a professional. But oh well, never mind xD

[aki_hikari]

Just play around with layers.
Maybe you can learn it from manga_colors?
They have bunches of good tutorials! :>
Haha, I'm not a professional too, in both Photoshop and manga coloring.
Btw, your One Piece icons are nice! Keep it up!
Gambateh for both of us!

Please allow me a minute...

TOKI *¬*

*breathes again*

I've actually colored the same panel some time ago (although I haven't posted it ^^")
It really looks lovely <3 You should work on the shadings more, though, it's what gives the panel life IMHO.

Cya!
Toki fans united *o*

[aki_hikari]

AWWW!!! YOU KNOW TOKI!!!
He's too adorable when he becomes chibi! XD LOVE LOVE LOVE!

Really? Will you post it up soon?
LOL, I'm really bad at shading. x_x Have to work hard on it!

C ya, Toki fans! XD
Thanks!

[tehanu_chan]

Of course *o*
He's like so cool and 'whatever'-like, everyone gotta love him! ahasdhajsdh
When he's chibi he's just so cute, I could die lol
And his relationship with Puppy! Or even more, his hugs with Ogami *nosebleed*

I'll try to post it soon, I'm gathering a bunch of old colorings ^^
Work on shading ^^ is not really that hard. If it helps you this is how I do it:
Once I have all the other layers colored, I grab a smooth brush with black, I choose where the shadows are going to be and I paint without worries ^^; then I smooth that A LOT, I put the layer on sof light and I go down to 70% opacity...
You can see some of my works here

I hope it helps you :) sorry for my lame english u.u

[aki_hikari]

Yeah, yeah, me too! *fangirls*

Lame English? Nope, I understand you!
Thank you, I'll try it next time. :)

You know what, I commented your colorings before! XD
