Though its submission was heavily delayed by my recent troubles and lack of time, here is my pencils tutorial describing how to achieve a more bolder and "graphic" look with characters.
This tutorial was made using Prismacolor/Karisma pencils, which are a high quality brand, but the methods described can be used with most brands of decent pencils, so if all you have is a beginner's set of Crayolas, you should still be able to follow it. ^_~
I want to cover a softer, more classic pencil look, and colouring a picture with a limited number of pencils, at a later date. Sorry for the wait, it was done days ago but I've been useless lately.

This tutorial features a human character (Miguel, our heavily ad-libbed version of The Fear from Metal Gear Solid 3) and a furrie/anthro character (the almighty Sheeva). So even though it's brief and shows a small image, at least it does a bit of both. XD

Thanks for all the support and nice feedback on my tutorials so far! I'm going to keep showing different media if I can, to cover most things that people ask me about - so I hope it's still helping. Thanks for looking!
