Amazing tutorial. Goes right into how to do it, and is slow enough to understand but fast enough to keep me focused. Everything still works as of 2022!
Hi I'm just starting to use Gimp, and I just want to let you know that your tutorial is super helpful! I learned so many new functionalities from this and you explained them perfectly. Thank you so much!!! 7 years later it's still helping people
Hello, young lady! This particular video of yours is still positively influencing the careers of artists out here all these years later. In my perspective, you explained the tutorial in a nicely paced and comprehensive fashion. Before I found this video, I avoided doing digital art for a good while, but now, after over 15 years of creating art traditionally only, I'm finally ready to regularly create with digital art softwares, like GIMP. So, what I'm fundamentally trying to say, is thank you VERY much for this digital art tutorial. I hope these words can contribute to you creating more content like this on the internet : )
I know I'm about 6-7 years late, but I sometimes use this method too! Also, thanks for demonstrating the burn and dodge tool! I personally mostly use the path tool the shape out the area that I want to color. To me, it's a bit faster than this one. But hey, any kind of car will get you to the same destination at the end anyway. 😊😊😊
Hi!! You're welcome, I'm glad the video was helpful! In order for the dark lines to stay on top, you need the layer which you isolated it on (I called mines "Lining" in the video) to be listed ABOVE the rest of your other layers in your layers window- is that how yours is? If not, select the layer which ONLY HAS LINING and bring it to the top of your list by clicking the green arrows.
This is a much simpler video than the rest I’ve seen , I may need to watch this afew times , I have a drawing I want to cut out and fill with the colour gold
oh my light ! you are a goddess ! thank you for this , i was looking for a way to improve my coloring and add shadows and highlits to my drawings thank you !!!
I had a couple of problems while following your instructions. First, I had a very hard time aligning the new layer perfectly with the inked layer every single time I wanted to color something, which made the process take forever. Second, I ended up painting over my inking, which I did not want to do because I'd have to redo all the lines. Fortunately there are ways around it. It's not actually necessary to create a new layer for each colored area, just use a layer for colors and paint inside the lasso selection. Also, I didn't realize I had to set the color layer mode to "multiply" rather than "normal" to keep the color from overlaying the inked lines.
Great tutorial. I wish you would make more videos for producing art with GIMP, but also G'IMC and Inkscape. Background music was just right and your voice makes listening enjoyable. I've tried to watch tutorial where the voice was a computer reading a script. Those were the absolute worst! Great work - keep them coming, please!
.....im trying to customise my own thing by using a picture of it already and just changing the colour but I'm struggling to make it look clean and finding it difficult to use....
HELP!! I have no color options t start painting. I can select which tool I want to use: paintbrush, pencil, ect. but it will not give me an option to choose any colors. What am I doing wrong?
Why do you copy to the new layer and try to move it to the right place? After you selected the area, simply add new layer and put color inside selection (with paint bucket or brush) - it'll be in the raght place from the start ;)
you can use a pdf scanner app on your phone which will white out the white areas. as to if or how you would then access it with gimp i dont know youre the expert lol.
Ok so I selected the lines by color. One, it makes a double line, line it selected the inside and outside of the line. Second it's not solid, it's the moving pixels. Then when I use the rectangle tool the lines disappear. Help?
hello, i did the copy/paste as a new layer for the lining but my lining turned into white, there was no black outline anymore, just white (there are small black parts that looks pixelated), how do i fix this?
To clarify into a step by step process: 1. Select the area you wish to color, with any of the selection tools. 2. Create a new layer from the selection with the paste command. 3. The new layer moves to the (0,0) point of your template, so you have to move it to the correct position. 4. Select a color and paint the area. 5. Use the dodge and burn tools to brighten or darken an area respectively.
Thanks, very useful tutorial! Strange thing that happened to me when seeing ur drawing at first: "the guy looks Korean"... Then looks at description.. "Oh" xP
I don't know what I am doing wrong. I followed every step but I can;t seem to get the moving lines to stop. I also want to paint it with the laso tool but when i finish doing it the whole section i covered got biger..
quick fix! make sure that your free select tool is in the correct mode: "replace the current selection." For some reason Gimp defaulted to another mode.

I suggest you pirate Adobe because gimp is absolutely horrible. I hate to say it because I love open source stuff but gimp is laughably bad after using it for just a little while.
The best GIMP Tutorial I've seen so far. And believe me, I've watched a lot of them, trying to understand Gimp.
Is GIMP free software
Same

yeah but we need to get there on time. Wish you posted videos on how to.

How do I get up the layers window? I dont know where it is.

Wow your tutorial sounds so easy! VERY helpful and very thorough explanation! I'm gonna try this for myself- thank you :)
The best tutorial I've seen so far, thanks!
thank you! this helped me make a business card for my computer class!!!
Thank you for taking your time, this was helpful and gave me some ideas!
I don't see many gimp tout where they use the dodge and burn tools. Good tip.
A little bit "basic" but for beginners it's a wonderful tutorial. good job
thank you soooo much for this!! this video by far is the only one that made sense to me lol
thanks this video helped a lot and btw you are a great drawer
That's a nice trick for coloring
this was crazy helpful!
Thanks you I've been trying to color for a mouth and couldn't find any good ones thanks
Worked great! Thanks for sharing
Thank you so much.after I watched this vid I tried it on the next day and it's really helpful..thank you once again
thank you so much,it's very helpful and the best one out there,do more.
Well explained. Thank you.
.....im trying to customise my own thing by using a picture of it already and just changing the colour but I'm struggling to make it look clean and finding it difficult to use....
I tried this but it goes over the lining :( I dont understand, none of this worked for me
HELP!! I have no color options t start painting. I can select which tool I want to use: paintbrush, pencil, ect. but it will not give me an option to choose any colors. What am I doing wrong?
Really helpful.
Why are likes and dislikes disabled? This is a great tutorial!
Awesome tutorial!
very useful. Thanks ;)))
Thanks! This good guide for a noob like me. 👍
Why do you copy to the new layer and try to move it to the right place? After you selected the area, simply add new layer and put color inside selection (with paint bucket or brush) - it'll be in the raght place from the start ;)
You don't even need to add a new layer. Select it and then color inside.
WSG Fun Channel yea seems she did it to be bit too complicated
@WSG Fun Channel: adding a new layer for the colours is a good thing, you never know, what you might do with it later
Thanks so much--very helpful!
you should do more tutorials. This was very well presented
I do agree with you 100%. Kudos to Yomipanda21
oh thank you so much.you really helped me.
Really helpful tutorial. :)
Thanks! You really helped me out!

thank you :) this really helps
i`'m kinda confused because there is problem with the pixels.
what if you want to edit a picture that has color , just to enhance it or something?
Nice tutorial 😉😉
hello, i did the copy/paste as a new layer for the lining but my lining turned into white, there was no black outline anymore, just white (there are small black parts that looks pixelated), how do i fix this?
Are you sure you're on the top most layer, did the lining layer show up at the top?
The layers option wont appear for me. :/
Click windows and dockable dialogs then layers i followed the steps and nothing ..
I'm still so confused
To clarify into a step by step process:
1. Select the area you wish to color, with any of the selection tools.
2. Create a new layer from the selection with the paste command.
3. The new layer moves to the (0,0) point of your template, so you have to move it to the correct position.
4. Select a color and paint the area.
5. Use the dodge and burn tools to brighten or darken an area respectively.
youngthinker1 makes no sense
@@andrewgarfield9898 yeah same man
@@CzechStephen what doesnt make sense? I get it but the fucking program what let me color or see the pasted image
Oh, I got you. Thanks again!
Thank you!
Thanks, very useful tutorial! Strange thing that happened to me when seeing ur drawing at first: "the guy looks Korean"... Then looks at description.. "Oh" xP
GOOD JOB, THANKS
This without, or with a digital tablet?
I don't know what I am doing wrong. I followed every step but I can;t seem to get the moving lines to stop. I also want to paint it with the laso tool but when i finish doing it the whole section i covered got biger..
T_T it took so long to reply, I know... I'm sorry to say that I'm actually not sure how that happened :/
It's okay,i just figured ot a few days ago what i did wrong so it's all good now. Thanks
:)
Oh okay, cool :D Wish I coulda helped, but I'm glad that it worked out for you!
+Alondra Kitty how did you figure this out? i'm having the same problem!!
you just have to use the rectangle select tool and do this 04:30
quick fix! make sure that your free select tool is in the correct mode: "replace the current selection." For some reason Gimp defaulted to another mode.
do you know what the new alternative is to “select by color” because i’m not seeing it on gimp rn?
@@cindiepierre8325 hmm not sure if an update has changed it, but still seeing the 3 circles icon on mine, moving threshold && such
o! shift+O
Than you for the explanation
When you began coloring the dark lines would stay on top, how did you do that?
Thank you so much
thank you very much!
In a way you didn't really need to do all of that. Just use path tool, create a new layer and draw over it .-.
path tool can take a longer time depending on the drawing
awesomeeee draw ^^
Thank youuu
please make more videos on gimp.
Bruh, this shii ain't working for me...How'd u get the lines from yo image to a new layer?
Ty!:)
gimp with a white bg is like light mode on discord, I would rather look at the sun :^
omg tysm!!
how do i make a favorites for colors i want to use on a drawing?
this video made me get my permanent markers out.
Thank you Ma'am
very cute voice.
trash every time i do it the thing is outside of my screen
I needed 5:36 thanks ❤️
it does not show me layers, what to do?
Aleksandar Velinovski Windows > Dockable Dailogs > Layers
Hope this helps ❤️
Lailani Tyler
Thank you very much, I saved the instructions! 💙
What's that epic music at 8:30
no matter what color I use. it appears grey.
You probably have it on grayscale mode and not RGB mode go to image then scroll down to mode and chose RGB.
K so uh is there a tutorial of opening the fucking program? and make it not crash my computer when fonts are being searched for?
woot woot
legit wtf why the best video on coloring is 8 years old lmao
I love you for this....have a sandwich🥪
