Ah, rotating the canvas for easier drawing? In Photoshop you hit the 'R' key for the Rotate Tool. This way you can just rotate your canvas to the desired angle, which I find easier to draw some lines. I'm sure you've noticed you work better on certain angles, too. C: It's also a good tip (and I don't do it as often as I should) to flip your canvas horizontally while drawing. This allows you to see it from a fresh perspective so it's easier to spot anatomical mistakes and such. :D

Sooooo for my reference xD;

  • Choosing colours for shading
  • Blocking in colour with lineart
  • Brush tool options

I'll go over what I know with colour theory, granted Neko's probably better at that than I am. XD I'll do some tutorials all the same, though!
Feel free to tag me or request I do some written guides too! I'm more than happy to help share my tricks. I'm no master, but hey- if I help one person, it's a good thing! I can alternate between art guides and comics guides since they go together nicely. =D

Seriously, if anyone wants me to write some guides on how I do specific things, just ask! When I have the time/energy, I'll GLADLY do my best to please!

Also feel free to include/request any of my videos. (I've got more than are public, so if there's an art you want to see a vid of, just ask- I record a good chunk of things these days.)
