Description Part three of the color-Freya-to-completion tutorial, this time the hair! Click to view--again, it's a pretty big file (about 1 MB)

Again, check out the previous steps to figure out how we got here:

Part 1 [link] - cleaning up the sketch, coloring skin and eyes
Part 2 [link] - clothing and lace

And for a similar tutorial on hair, but in Painter...
Hair Tutorial for Painter [link]

Hopefully, this makes some sort of sense... Let me know if you need clarifications! ^^

joulee In reply to Kenshinartistsword [2005-08-10 22:47:12 +0000 UTC]

Well, nowadays I use Painter more often than Photoshop (so the Painter hair tutorial is more accurate of what I do now...) but if I use photoshop, I do something similar to this.
