Thanks man, I'm not gonna ink this pic, but I am working on giving it more of a painted look. (still WIP)

Looks great so far. Hah! I usually leave the face for last too. :P

Here is a coloring technique I've been playing around with lately. Seems to lend itself well to both cartoony and more realistic styles of coloring. You need some mildly deep knowledge of photoshop to use it, but so far I've found it very much worth the extra setup time.

Might be something to look into for your next image.

Damn, that's a nice tutorial, will have to try that out. Thanks!

OMG ThankYouThankYouThankYouThankYouThankYou!

That method is so freaking amazing, in 20 minutes I have something which looks 400% better compared to what took me hours the preivous way!

Impressive coloring job...

Amazing work. You really got the hang of that coloring technique! I specially like how the hair came out. Great job on the skin tone.

WOW! That picture is fantastic and the story was clever. The work you put in was really worth it. By "paint" do you mean acryllics or wacom pad?
