Ты рисуешь сначала ч/б, а потом что? Накладываешь слой с краской? Как это происходит?

Я использую слои color , overlay, multiply. Он все могут прокрашивать поверх чб изображения, придавая оттенок, высветляя или затемняя. Но это лишь оттенок, если ты хочешь прокрасить с сохранением тоновой плотности, и чистым цветом на выходе то это только нормал поверх.

Awesome process, thanks for sharing!
One question: what happened between the second and fourth panel? In the second you've added some rim light, but in the third it's been painted over, then it's back again in the fourth panel. Were you just trying to establish where the rim light would be and then paint the detail, or was there another reason?
Fantastic work, again.

Another Question: how much do you end up painting over the character? Is it the whole face? Or is it little pieces here and there? I also do the grayscale method but end up having trouble with the paint over.
This is what I get…..

Looked up your guy.
You probably noticed, that the most natural looking here is his skin.
It is so, cause skin is very smooth and translucent enough to have a very slight tone variation when in ambient light. It changes dramatically if you have a spotlight or bright sunlight, but it will be stilltone consistency in the shaded side.
If you used over,ay on his skin it quite easy makes it to look fine.
But clothes are usually have materials that react to the light quite different.
Leather is high reflective and usually can be very shiny in direct light.
Rough fabrics are light absorbing, so they can be more matte.
So, basically you have a problem painting different materials, and color greyscale or not is not the case.
My advice, have a quick study every day, like half of an hour, just painting materials from reference.
In some time you will be better at: drapery and clothes folds and constructive understanding of it, better light depiction, better texture understanding, some design insights.
Just start and don't skip. It will be easier when a habit.
Hope that helps

And eventually at use of color!

In this case it were eyes and teeth, and gem in the crown. But as you can see the whole image lacks color. It is quite monochromatic.
I avoid using this method if i need more vibrant image. Cause if you go with color from the start it usually looks more interesting cause brushstrokes are piling up on top of another and creating different hues.
so if you go with grayscale and color it after it will be more graphic approach, like copic markers versus watercolor
And adding color will be quite troublesome ( to achieve painted look)

Question: what kind of layers are used for the last two panels? Overlay?
The sparks are a nice touch.

So first one is curves-
Forgot to add

it helps to make a pass for cold light, warm shadows base. Next layer is color - mainly his face where is stands the most.
After that is usually overlay to gain some saturation and then normal layer to paint over where it needed.
