Thanks, I'm glad you found them so useful. I've been so busy this year that I haven't been able to post anything new, but I hope to be able to refine the process for everyone. Thanks again :)

Man, I just came up on all your six tutorials. Where have you been all my life. Wow is all I can say. When I see how crisp and shinny colors have gotten and how they define comics today I have always wanted to do the same with my work. You are a life saver man, you have no idea. I know I sound like a total stalker but these videos just made my day and hope they never get deleted from youtibe. I'm an active duty US infantry soldier stationed in Fort Bliss., you made this soldier's day man.

Some of the best and most professional tutorial videos I have ever seen.. and my dad's an amateur comic artist and is trying to get some of his work published so this helps more than anything! Thank you so much!!

Thanks for your tutorials, it really gives me self-confidence in what I did so far and found out myself. I'm new with digital colouring and tried to find a useful tutorial for a long time. But a good artist doesn't make a good teacher ^^°

Thanks for taking the time to make those videos. :D

Your series of tutorials were extremely helpful, Thank you! Unlike those time-lapse "look at me pop-a-wheelie on Photoshop" ones!

(again thank you!)
