Part 8 - How to color Manga a Comics the Pro way - Sexy Lara Croft from Tomb Raider

For hours and hours of free video tutorials, please visit

http://ipaintgirls.com

To easily follow this series on painting manga and comics, go to the site, and then go to Digital Painting, and scroll down. I will be updating as I put the new parts up. To see my artwork, go to the gallery. Visit the forums to ask me questions, or to post your own art, or tutorials. Thanks.

This new, free series is all about coloring manga and comics, but the techniques can be used for painting as well. I teach techniques in this series that I haven't shown on any of my other videos, so that is exciting.

I show how to clean your scanned line work and remove the white so that the lines stay crisp. I show how to color the lines without coloring anything else but the lines. I also show other techniques for changing line color, but the lock transparency pixels is the best, I think. I will be showing how to get that nice cell shaded look that is so often seen in comics, especially manga. In the end, you'll be able to apply this knowledge and create great colored works of art. 

If you want to color this Lara Croft drawing I did, you can go to www.ipaintgirls.com and then go to gallery. Be sure to download the full sized version. If you do color it, link back to me, and let me know so I can check it out, yanno? Coolness.
