Or he could clean up the image first, erase the shades, create new lines (lineart) and then start colouring. Then use the original image as a reference so he doesn't forget what areas that were shaded.Quote:

Linearts are the way to go, erasing gray is probably the gayest thing to do.
I'll try doing a tutorial on my next coloring if it's not a long one.
Nice tutorial man I'll try this sometime although i hate coloring my vectored work i like to keep them black and white
thanks for this tut. I really need it ^^
have been wondering how to color a long time already XD
Thanks for the nice feedback, people.
Anyone have some more tips on doing the shadows?
I really fucked up mine:
Spoiler!
Anyway I want to thank Mass for this tutorial :). This was my first time using Photoshop.
Add more shadows and highlights. Furthermore, try getting 'm more straight. (This is pretty hard by hand and more easily done by using the pen tool, I'll see if I can spiff up a "Coloring v2" sometime soon.)Quote:
