It also might not.

Learn to paint and draw, learn color theory. On-line tutorials are decent for a couple of tips or tricks, but you should be learning from guys that have mastered the craft. Look at famous illustrators like Pyle, Rockwell, Frazetta, etc. You'll actually learn something from those guys. Then pick up the Andrew Loomis books, they're a great place to start. Learn the drawing ones too... even if you just have your heart set on painting or being a colorist, there's no substitute for the foundation good drawing will give you.

Thank you guys, I have been doing the tutorial this evening, Following step by step or trying too, I have PS 7.0. But I am working on it and learned a few things already. Now I didn't draw these. I got them out of a coloring book. Don't laugh. LOL Thanks for all the help

The one that the personnel already recommended you. . . It is also it that me leaning. Very good will of wanting to do. . .
But it is good to study theory of the colors light and shadow and tonal value of the colors. I also recommend the book; DC Comics Guide toColoring & Lettering

BobRivard · 08-31-2007, 12:31 PM

Again... learn the fundamentals first. Stay away from second rate How To books or web tutorials and learn from the masters. I can't stress it enough.

You don't have to take my advice, but I'll guarantee you that learning from b.s. like that link somebody posted will only make things more difficult for you.

kajunson · 08-31-2007, 02:56 PM

Thanks, I will get that book. I really just want to be a colorist.Something I enjoy doing. But I will get that book. I am still practicing and do usually one a day. Working on a Vader right now. I ma not done with it yet. I am trying to apply what I am picking up here and there. Thanks bro

I think. . . That everything that you can learn with professionals that act in the area is been worth. Learn the base and develop.

This is a great example of why not to learn from that tutorial.

Stop despising the other ones and follow life.
Good luck with work and all us. . .

It is my sincere message for you.
I don't have anything against you or their works.

Again good luck.

I'm not despising anything. It's just disappointing to see people pointed in the wrong direction, that's all. I'm trying to give a bit of advice to a new artist. I have nothing against Sean personally, I just don't believe his tutorial or body of work is a good place for somebody to start learning how to color.

Here's a link to those Andrew Loomis books

Here's a good list of Illustrators to check out.

J.C. Leyendecker

Howard Pyle

Maxfield Parrish

Norman Rockwell

Frank Frazetta

N.C. Wyeth

Those are guys you should be looking at.

This guy's a good digital painter... check out his stuff, very useful resource:

Niklas Jannsen
His tutorial page

Check out these digital artists as well:

Craig Mullins

Ryan Church

Miguel Marques · 08-31-2007, 06:19 PM

I repeat. . . I don't have anything against you or any one. . .
I ask that you continue please frequenting. . .
But each one with their ideas.
Good luck to all.

kajunson · 08-31-2007, 07:52 PM
