Here's a lineart I've tried coloring a few times but never succeeded all that well... yesterday I got an inspiration to try to learn more about this new painting-style I'm exploring, and luckily I finally have this lineart out of the pile of unfinished pieces. XDD

Some bigger detail-shots can be seen here:

Lineart is drawn by *kate-niemczyk
Colors by me, Photoshop.

Basically how I've used it is as follows: I've set the lineart on multiply layer, painted greyscale shading under it, then flattened them, and then copied all of it into two identical multiply layers and painted the actual colors on an ordinary layer under the two others...
One multiply layer should be in grayscale and other in color, like red or orange... then it's all about erasing the grey layer where it's not wanted (like the center of the face), leaving a 'gradient'-like shading from red to greyscale.
It will help to change the shadows from colorful to neutral smoothly as well as 'soften' the lineart on the face and other hi-lighted parts where black lineart would be too rough.
I dunno how to explain it better, it's kinda difficult and I'm just beginning to grasp it somewhat. :D But I like it already. I hope my explanation made sense.

Thank you! I will try to play around with something like that! :) Did you come up with this by yourself?
