Yea, I checked there. That's not the kind of colorization I want to do though =(
manny-the-dino
okay. do you have an example of the type of colorization you're looking for?
GunsNRachel
Something like this, only that's kind of a crappy colorization. But I think you get what I mean?
manny-the-dino
ahhhh okay. like a sort of vintage/retro colorization.
that picture kind of reminds me of this tutorial.

It's a graphic art community, much like this one, and it is chalk-full of tutorials for just about everything.

I'm a member of RCR. Those tutorials are good for beginners. They aren't realistic. Skin isn't just one color.

You might try these, I don't love the end results, skin etc. looks off but they offer some decent tips.

Remember skin isn't just one color, it's a palette. Incorporate colors that will make the image more natural looking. Use swatches! Avoid making eyes look alienish by making them too light.
