Invisible Plan Iconage (original) (raw)

14 August 2006 @ 12:43 am

Hello! I've had quite a few inquiries regarding my style on how to color black and white manga images, so this will be a tutorial to merely guide you through the process! I hope this helps :D LET'S START.

Please remember that while this is done in Photoshop CS2, there are most certainly ways to achieve the same effect in older versions of Photoshop, or even Paint Shop Pro! ♥

First! We'll be starting with this image of Maron from the manga Kamikaze Kaitou Jeanne by amazing mangaka Arina Tanemura! Cute, isn't she :3

( click to read the rest!Collapse )

This is my finished product:

I hope this has been helpful for some of you! Leave any comments, praises, suggestions, or flames (hopefully there won't be any of those :3;) here in this entry. And remember to friend invisible_plan if you like what you see here! Thanks guys! ♥

Tried a bunch of styles this time around. Unfortunately I can't seem to pull off the "bright and happy" as well as I'd like to lol (might have something to do with stress.. hm)
Got the creepy kitties from a website somewhere that was displaying their prized Persian cats. I swear, these things are hilarious as they are creepy xD I Lawl'd for hours. Got the inspiration from the "O RLY" owls, of course ♥
