Well this is just a real simple tutorial. Just on how to paint in Painter using a tutorial that I learned from Dan Milligan (orginal tutorial can be found here [link]) Well I did it a little diffrent due to the fact that the first time around, I tried this, I didnt quite understand all the instructions.

Beware this is a pretty big file, the tutorial is done in flash, so it may take time.

FAQ (check here before you post a question)

Q: Man this sucks!
A: uh... That isnt a question. But truthfully I am not really that good. This pic came out okay, but the drawing wasnt too good. I have done others that came out way better, and that was due to better drawing. A good coloring technique will not achieve anything if the drawing looks like it came from a hyped up 6 yr. old. Better pictures using this technique can be found here: [link] [link]


Q:Where can I get stock.xchng?
A: Right here!:[link] It is also in the turtorial.

Q: You cant spell, are you like stupid?
A: Well at least that is a question. Yeah I didnt spellcheck. So sue me, I dont care. If though you actually had trouble understanding something due to a spelling error, let me know, and I might be able to help you.

Q:So are you trying to tell me that this tutorial will totally alter my life, and grant me instant beautiful pictures?
A: Nope, this is only a technique, a tool, but it still takes practice, and skill. But work at it, and you can get it. I think though it is great to learn lots of diffrent techniques. That way you have lots of tools in your bag. A technique is not a magic wand, it is more like a screwdriver.

Q:So when I hit the little button, the only thing that comes up is white?
A:Well this is a humongous file so, it is just loading. I dont know how to make preloaders yet, so it will just have to load on its own.
