13 MORE Coloring Tips For Next-Level Comics (Shorts Compilation)
We're back with another sequence of mini-tutorials, originally released into the Shorts feed in 2025.
Comic colorist Evan Schultz explains the craft, theory, and nuance behind the techniques he's developed over the last two decades, but you don't have to be a pro to start using any of these techniques! These are designed to be accessible to anyone of any experience level.
Regardless of software (Procreate, Photoshop, Clip Studio, Krita, GIMP) these lessons will train you to think like a pro and render comics and manga in both modern and retro styles!
