Colouring Tutorial — Description
Updates: To use the BURN tool, which intensifies colors rather than lightening them like the DODGE tool, double-click the dodge tool and click on "Burn". Change the mode to either "Shadows" or "Midtones", but beware that burning highlights will turn any white in the picture gray. This helps to bring back some of the line definition in your original lineart, as the dodge tool tends to lighten lines a bit too much. This can also be useful if you don't like to ink your art, but want to use the technique. Begin by burning the shadows to turn them dark like they were inked, and then go from there. Easy, huh?

In "BAU: Submission" I asked if anybody wanted a tutorial on how I do most of my colouring. Before I ever even got an answer, I made this. No, I'm not impatient...AT ALL! *sarcasm, sarcasm*

It was fun, though. I hope it's easy enough to understand.

Blast! Now everybody knows the secret! Now you can see how lazy I am!

Oh, and yeah, I noticed the typo on step 4...I used "your" instead of "you're". Give me a break. I made this at 3 in the morning. I'm surprised that there weren't more mistakes!
