Description
As promised to those who have been asking about my soft cel shading process, here it is.I tried to keep it simple and basic, I'm sorry if it's too lengthy or complicated still~
This tutorial is for tablet users and uses Photoshop CS6. I don't know if it's compatible with other software such as PaintTool SAI, GIMP and the like. ^^'
Finished piece Ā
I hope it helps you, don't hesitate to ask if you have any questions!

Hey, sorry if you get asked this a bunch, but I was curious on how you did your lines. May you please tell me or maybe, if you have the time, make a tutorial?

Sorry for the late reply hun, I've been away from this channel. I don't do anything special for the lines, just use Photoshop's 'hard round pressure' brush and make the size very very small, around 5%. Hope this helps! c:

um.. im new this this type of coloring style, so can you explain what's the difference from cell shading and regular coloring? sorry if i ask a stupid question >.<

I'm not sure what you mean by 'regular' coloring ehe, but basically this is a style of coloring that combines Cel Shading and Soft Shading (like this picture - cel shading is on the left, and soft shading is the right one:i.imgur.com/tUBMm.png ). I hope that helps explain a bit! c:

The eyedropper tool lets you pick colors from a picture by clicking on them, and it is in Sai here:i1090.photobucket.com/albums/iā¦
Thank you so much hun, I wish you the best with your shading!

I just use Photoshop's default Hard Round Pressure Brush at a very small size - about 5 px - and draw! ^^
To make the lines thicker, I duplicate my lineart layer. c:
