Description I started this concept piece about two days ago. Had to take medical leave from work cause of an allergic reaction so i decided to take some time to polish it. Most of the elements are already in place. I'm thinking of what sort of colour palette i should use. If anybody has suggestion or critique's, do kindly comment~ Hope you guys like it.

I have a question... how do you color this do you use a overlay, multiply layer or something else? i have trouble colouring something because when i use one of these layers to colour on top of the drawing i don't get the colors i want.

Well there are a few methods you can actually use to turn a greyscale piece into a coloured piece. The first method would be to create a new layer and set it to colour mode. And i guess after that you would need to play with the colour balance/contrast/saturation etc to achieve the kind of look you are going for. Another method which i use would be to create a new layer and just paint over it with colour. The first method is good if you have a greyscale image with really good overall tone value. Because colour mode doesnt affect your greyscale value, all it does is just add colour according to the greyscale value which you initially had. Multiply and overlay works too, but i only use them in certain situations. It's actually alot of trial and error to see which method works best for you. ^^
