Anonymous asked - "Do you have a tutorial on colouring or WIP screenshots c:? I really love the way you colour and in this moment I feel so frustated with my drawings, specially with anything digital, so I thought it would be nice if you could give me a piece of advice to improve (even though you already really inspire me to improve). Thank you for your lovely art c:, and I'm sorry if it sounds rude or has some mistakes, as english is not my mother tongue,"

Hi Anon! Let me try to breathe for a moment and wipe my tears because wow you are the sweetest(and no worries, i don’t find this message rude at all)! Also i’m palpitating, i’ve never felt something like this before. Thank you very much for the kind words!!

Um, I actually have never done a tutorial on colouring before mainly because i still have little grasp of the fundamentals (also i don’t think anyone would be interested). If I can find the time, maybe i will do it? I actually don’t have one colouring method I use all the time. Sometimes I start in greyscale, sometimes i use one base(say something dark purple-bluish) and then I color over it(dark to light), other times i just wing it and color the heck out of it. Yeah, my colouring method is quite inconsistent. Ah! I remember making this gif, but i didn’t publish it(well i kinda did in my other…bl—):

Ahh, this is still a WIP but i didn’t merge the layers yet so i guess i’ll use this:

Ahh I hope that frustration vanishes soon. Don’t be pressured, just work at your own pace. Just keep practicing/experimenting, also it doesn’t hurt to have some knowledge of color theory. Critiques are REALLY helpful. Don’t be shy to ask someone to critique your art. This website helped me a lot too!

Ahh i apologize for the lack of coherence, i’m still shaking haha. I-if you need anything else, don’t hesitate to ask me. I will answer to the best of my ability. Thank /YOU/ for the lovely message! Your English is perfecto!
