Hey, hey ~

All ready to get started? Okay. Just grab the lineart here [link] , and the tutorial and get to it! I left the lines very open and they aren't very detailed so you can be creative. Please save all fine tuning for the final touches. Any questions regarding this step please post here. A journal will be added on Friday for you to post a link of your progress.

A few rules:

- The light source direction is SET. Please do not alter this. The directional light is coming from her RIGHT (our left). That's all ya gotta stick to .

- Do not skip ahead. Take your time on each part and really think about texture as you color.

- Do not alter the lines yet. Any personal touches will come later.

- Do not consider this a race. You have a week.

- Please DO NOT remove my signature for the lines. DO add yours. Those colors will be all you babe~

Some tips:

- SAVE, SAVE, SAVE, and SAVE AGAIN!

- You have hands, use them to feel your own curves to get an idea of how shadows and light should fall.

- Don't get discouraged if you don't get this at first. It all comes in due time.

- Try not to use too many layers or undo too often. Paint over any mess ups instead.

- To avoid ruining the lines, keep as top layer and set to Multiply mode on your layers menu. Keep all color layers below the lines.
