Hey there
I know this is a bit of a weird (?) Request, but would you consider doing a tut on how to do line art to colouring and how you make your line art... stand out less? Like how do you pick colours and how do you do the actual shading Sorry if this is a bit of a odd request It's just I love your drawings so much and I'm trying to learn but I can't seem to make it so the line art doesn't look weird and it sticks out ect :\
