Examples:
(Click to Zoom)
Standard Lineart of a Cat: This is what you get
from a basic Lineart Auction- Usually what colorists get.
How not to Shade: This is an easy mistake...
Don't only shade one side of the leg! It is a tube more
or less-- treat it that way. Shading goes on both sides!
Cel Shading: AKA Comic book shading. This
is an easy way to shade and also the fastest. Most
lineartists shade their templates like this.
Soft Shading: This is the most common among
pets. It's most versatile in my opinion. This is
basically cel shading with a blur filter on top.
How I Shade: I mix the two a bit because, upon
further reconnaissance, some shadows are sharp
and some are soft. Thus having both = okay to do.

Tutorials
How To THOROUGHLY Color:
I've done this tutorial in Photoshop Elements-- That's what the key commands are.
However- most of these commands are more or less universal.
Step 1/2: Open your document and move the template to a
new layer! (ctrl+O) for Open; (ctrl+C) for Copy; (ctrl+V) for Paste
Step 3/4: Open the Hues and Saturation Menu (Ctrl+U) and
change the color to whatever you want it to be. Then set that
layer to "Multiply" (This makes white transparent)(It also sets
colored pixels to a different value depending on-- no. I'm not
going geek on you guys. It makes things crazy- just try it)
Step 5/6: Use the Fill tool on a new layer under the Lineart
and use the Magic Wandy Select tool (Real Name.) to
select the unwanted region.
Step 7/8: Find the expand selection tool(Yes, you have to
search for it.) in the Select > Modify > Expand. Area and
expand it about 2 px (depends on the cleanliness of the
lines) and hit the delete key. (it should turn transparent)
Step 9: I've run into this OVER 9000! times. The lineart is
too dark or too light. You can't do much... unless you use
Levels (ctrl+L). The graph represents all of the grey values
in the image... percentage-wise. The White Arrow recalculates
the brightest white value, setting it lower will make greys
whiter. The Grey Arrow recalculates mid-tones, this is
the main toggle you will end up using. It makes minor
changes. The Black Arrow recalculates the blackest values
Definitely helpful when you're shading a dark pet.
Step 10: Okay there's like 50 ways to put patterns on the
pet. I make a new layer and hit (ctrl+G) for a clipping mask
this can also be done with a right click on the layer. You
can also lock the layer however, you will erase in a solid color.

I'd give a "please do not steal" here but... you guys know
better and it's only one stage of one gender- you'd go through
more trouble paying a lineartist to match my style.
CONTEST!! :3
Best Coloring Gets a prize:
So Do your best! :3
Runs Until: March 30th <3
(More practice lineart on the way)
