Super informative, post part 3 please!

Can you do that in Photoshop CS5?

@lucija123451 Yes, you can. The process is identical.

You do what I do, Or similar. Whenever I name layers I name it "Clothes Base" "Hair Base" then "Hair Shade" " clothes shade". Great tutorial very clear and step by step for starters

Using the polygon lassoo tool is a slow way to make a selection, have you tried multifill?

[jaggedlittlebill]

Isn't it better to use channels? The files get huge with so many layers no?

Here is a better idea, use a drawing tablet, because it is like drawing and inking on paper, and it takes a hell of a lot less time.

[shadowsmyst]

Having done both, its not really that much faster and gives to a lot more errors in base flats. Also, not everyone has a tablet who wants to color comics. This tutorial isn't about tablets.

0.0 Skin layer beneath other layers is brilliant XD.

It's been sooo long since I have photoshoped seriously XD.
