I started coloring my Deadpool pic and decided to add the steps that I use to color my pics. Here is the first step. With the line work I make this my top layer and change the blending to multiply so that all the white area now becomes transparent and the black area will darken colors beneath it. From here I will make all my base colors, the color will me the mid-range hue for that area meaning I choose the color that is going to between the highlighted area and the shadow color. Each base color will be on it’s own separate layer so that it makes it easier to edit and color.
The next step is I will then use one of the layers with the color and select the color layer and apply a layer mask to just the colored area. I will then duplicate this layer above the base color then change the value of the color to a darker version of the color that will start the basic shadowing and give the character definition. I will then use the layer mask to start to remove the darker color revealing the lighter color underneath. I prefer to use a stylist for this because of the greater control and more “traditional” coloring look.
After I have the shading done I will collapse all the layers into one and start the highlights. For this I will change my brush style to screen and choose a lighter color then my base color, playing around with different colors will give you different effects. Once I got the basic highlights in then if I want to make it stand out a bit more I will add in some bright spots with white.
