The long awaited tutorials have finally come!
So here is a simple coloring tutorial mainly for making tags. I used to color like this a while back, it was fast and easy. So a lot of beginners could try their hands at it :3
Please tell me what you think is missing and what parts stump you so that I can make future tutorials better!

Ah, so you can use the burn tool to shade? I didn't know that. I've always shaded the hard way. And the dodge tool for lighting. Neato. Thanks!

Helps a lot, though one question: What if you are not a good computer drawer. The problem most artists seem to face is not the lack of creativity or knowledge, but the lack of artistic talent. I find it crucial to inform artists that art does not come from talent at all. ANYONE can draw as long as they have taken the proper incentive to do so. Classes are a great way to learn how to draw. Your other option is to choose one thing you really want to draw well, take an example picture, and try to draw it exactly. (Without tracing it of course.) Once you've got that down, keep practicing. Art isn't something that comes naturally. You must train your eye and you hand to do as you bid it. This takes some time, but is well worth the outcome. Interestingly enough, just because you are a blue ribbon painter and top of your state in artistry, this does not mean you will be as well when drawing on the computer. As a matter of fact, your images will be rather poor (when compared to hand drawn items) if you are drawing with your mouse. The only other option seems to be to purchase a drawing pad. The most popular, (that I have seen around frequently), the cheapest (to my standards of $60 US dollars), and the most dependable is the "small" BAMBOO tablet. Hope this helps! Any questions? FM me. =)
