Color is HELL!

Tried adding color to my otherwise bland drawings. I managed to make this with PhotoFiltre. http://mrkey17.deviantart.com/art/Bazett-and-Vanessa-506666698

I like the way you colored the purple hair. I typed up a huge paragraph >.> And just deleted it lol -

So here's my quick coloring tips I picked up as a graphic designer. (Assuming you use a photoshop like program (yes gimp works too (though I forget if it has masking))) 1. After scanning your image bring it into photoshop. Make a new blank layer, and place it under your drawing. (You may want to make a white background layer under your blank alpha) then set your drawings blend mode to multiply. Voila simple coloring. 2. Masking is your friend. 3. Color theory is your friend 4. Almost never use full saturation colors.

I'm not insanely talented, but these concepts do give the illusion that I am much better than I am. I'm sure you'll be doing great stuff with in a week.

Yeah, I don't have any of that knowledge and my editing program is rather rudimentary. So no layer control or anything. I made due with what I could.

Wah ! You're better then me definitely but keep it up practice practice that's what I'm trying to do ! Maybe we'll get better together -u-
