Description
Well... I started coloring another Solara drawing of mine, but this time, trying my darndest to follow SeanE's CiCi Tutorial from his website (thanks for the tuts and congrats for the award!) It's still a work in progress...but PHEW! It's a lot of work! Having a HELL of a time trying to figure out how to do the hair without resorting to using the dodge and burn tools *sigh* Anyone know of any comic hair tuts?
So many layers... *whimpers as she looks over psd file* Guess that's what happens when someone jumps from place to place...
Questions, comments and ideas always welcome!
Enjoy!

Well...you can always use airbrushes with lighter and darker colour values instead of the burn and dodge tool, but I don't know if that's really that "different". If the problem is in drawing over the lines...a little trick I like to use is to copy the lineart and then paste it on a new layer, set to multiply. The black lines on that layer will stay black no matter what you draw underneath, but the white is transparent.
Awesome job!!
