So. I thought I’d do a little semi-art tutorial. It’s more just walking through my colouring process. I work light to dark to help avoid smudging, so I usually start with the skin.

Base coat

Base shading

Blend

Deepen shadows

Blend

Detail

Depending on the character, I like to add some colour to the cheeks

Blend

And then I just fine tune the last of the details.

I may or may not reblog this with other parts of my colouring process.

Eyes!

You need really sharp pencils for this bit.

As we established earlier, I work light to dark. So I start by shading the whites of the eyes

Then I blend out the shadows and add the highlights

Then I start with the highlights in the irises

Then the main colour around the highlight

Then the shadow cast by the eyelashes

Last step is to fill in the pupils!

I usually use a few more steps than this, but brown eyes are pretty simple on this small of a scale.

Okay. Hair. Skoden. Stoodis.

Plan the highlights and the general flow of the hair.

Actually colour the highlights. Fancy that.

Very important step. Get interrupted by your cat named Chainsaw as he headbutts your sketchbook out of your hands and sticks his face in your drink immediately after you take this photo. Do not skip this part.

Colour the main body of the hair. I like to blend this part into the highlights as I go.

Add in the shadows. Again, I like to blend as I go so I don’t miss any spots. ADHD who?

Colourless blender, my beloved—

‘I was hanging onto the friendship that you had already let go of… Drifting further apart, I watched you move on, whilst you watched me suffer with no one new but these knotted memories of what we used to be…’
