My first attempt of coloring line art in Photoshop

[Eanae]

I haven't cleaned the majority of it up yet, but I think it came out ok. Critisim things such as coloring would be greatly appretiated. I didn't do the drawing itself, so not so many comments on that.

Fixed the link. I moved it and forgot to update it.

That's come pretty coloring right there! Good job!

The method is good. But the colors are very saturated, giving it an MS-Paint feel.

Nice work getting all that detail in the gun, though.

Yeah I noticed that, but couldn't figure how to make the colors less "paintish" and a bit more realistic toned. :s

Both Paintshop and Photoshop have an option to alter "SATURATION" where 0 makes it gray, 100 makes it bright color, lower the color in the 80s can give it a dim feel to it, while still bright, lower for dimmer duller color.

Wow, Eanae, your picture looks cool. The girl in it reminds me of that multi personality girl from Dragon Ball.

Theres some nice work going there for first time work.

Crits: Some of the colours are...a bit painful. The neon pink dress added with the red on the apron is a bit off putting. There might also be a bit to much colour in the weapon.

I think the next step would be to put some shading down on it.

This is a great website about Drawing/Colouring and I've been using it myself quite alot recently. When you get near the end of the tutorial theres some good stuff on adding depth via shading and such.

That's actually the website I used to get the line art colored as far as I did.
