I did this for my friend
It's Al from FMA

Your progressing quite nicely

If you ever need manga panels to color I have volumes 1 - 10 downloaded onto my computer and im working on the last 2 xD But I could send you panels via PM or whatever

Id also like to suggest a panel! ^^

Yay a suggestion!
By the way, would you color Serenity's hair like a light gray purple color or something? And you leave his hair the same right?
I will try to do something different because what I usually do is make a colored transparent background over the original image, then I copy the original image and put it over the colored one and it's also transparent, and somehow it looks like one image. But I think I will just color this one because also his hair would look weird. Especially if I did it like how I did with the picture above
Anyway thanks for the suggestion I will work on it tommorow

Its up to you how you color it and what colors you use just have fun with it ^^

I was super bored so I edited a bunch of pictures
Click to make them bigger

I forgot this one!

Aww those look nice sailor candy! *hugs*

I finally got around to coloring that manga panel

I think I forgot to color part of Endymion's face...
Oh well...

Yes, I know her hair is supposed to be blonde but to me it looks better

looking good Candy! I might suggest on a few of your works knocking down the textures a little some of them are looking a little funny. But still really good work those colorings look great!

I don't know how exactly…

i dont know in GIMP, but i bet you can look it up on line.

I colored Diana-chan! 

I used a GIMP tutorial and made this:

I actually shaded! It's a miracle!

They are at first! But don't fret! You'll get the hang of it!
If you shine a light on something from a certain direction, the colors of whatever your shining the light on change! I usually use my source coming from the left for some odd reason... >.>
This is really the easiest visual I can give you.
The light is coming from the top left.

Spoiler:

Here is a tutorial I used for the shading part.  Helps to make them pretty and natural looking. Has other good stuff that I forgot about, haha.

Hope this is helpful

That's the tutorial I used…it had a whole bunch of stuff on it but now that I look at the picture it looks like too much and you can't even see the shading or highlights

You just need to play arpind with colors. Yellow is tricky to shade. Dont be afraid to go a couple shades darker or lighter .

I fixed it, it's simpler and the colors are darker. I love the highlights and shading on her hand because it looks so lifelike!

I think the link is broken lovie I cant see your newest update

Okay i finally got the picture up correctly

I'm bored so somebody please request something...

If your looking for something to do try coloring this ^^ Id love to see your coloring style in this
