How To Start Manga Coloring (Beginning Steps)

This video is for people who have absolutely no experience and it's to introduce them to the starting process which prepares them for the coloring itself. There will be more where I'll dive more in depth into other topics.

Can you break down what you did at 10:45 to change the lineart color?

[@itzzazure]

Basically what I did is that I placed a layer above the manga panel and set it as a “clipping mask” (a feature all drawing softwares have). It basically makes it so that anything I color will only show on the layer I clipped it to (manga panel layer). I usually color it in completely like you saw on the vid so I can see if I am clearly getting all the areas I want. Then I click the clipping button so everything just filled in only shows up on the panel layer. (Hope it was easy to understand)

[@vialacteadsg]

i'm sorry when should i use brush and when should i use the airbrush?

[@itzzazure]

The choice is yours. Everybody uses brushes differently, but I like to use airbrush to blend the colors and make it look softer. Test it out and see what works for you. Just be careful not to use airbrush too much cause over blending can make stuff look bad.

[@ligmaisrealnotkidding4380]

Im having trouble with the upscalers bro. They just dont work (it wont let me put an image in)

[@itzzazure]

Which one are you using?

[@ligmaisrealnotkidding4380]

@@itzzazure you replied to me both on here and twitter so first let me say thanks bro. Second, don’t worry about it I figured it out. Wi-Fi was trash lul

[@Saphistic]

how long does this usually take?

[@itzzazure]

Depends from person to person, but I like taking my time coloring things so I usually spend 8-10hrs. The one I did in this vid only took like 25 min tho

[@ligmaisrealnotkidding4380]

Bro are you doing all of this on a mouse?

[@itzzazure]

No I use a drawing tablet
