Description As promised, here is my tutorial for the coloring I used on my previous deviation, Dangerous Beauty .

I seriously feel there is a HUGE lack of tutorials for PSP/PS photography coloring. I have searched high and low for tips, hints, and have turned up nothing. Seems photographers don't want to share their technique or just don't have the time. So, while my coloring isn't spectacular, it will help beginner photographers like myself learn more about layers and coloring.

if you do make anything using this tutorial, please link it here to me. I would love to see it.

Actually, most of my photoshop coloring techniques (that I learned) was from LiveJournal.com I used to be a huge fan of icon making and you can find sooo many icon tutorials on coloring and whatnot on that site. I mean they are usually for 100x100 icons but the methods and other stuff can be used anywhere ^_^

I like your tutorial tho, very simple yet highly useful

Liesjuh [2007-06-25 10:19:00 +0000 UTC]

sweet, nice and simple. Though one question, which colors should you use in your photo's? Does it depend on the colors in the image or does it depend on the overal color you want to give it?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

onlyalive8 In reply to Liesjuh [2007-06-30 22:01:28 +0000 UTC]

i guess it really depends on the effect you want the photo to have.
