i see you have layers for hair when coloring, how many layers does your coloring consist of. like do you make a layer for shirt, face, hair, pants, etc etc or just shade in one layer over the flat color layers

actually using the lasso tool isnt hard, narutohi65, because if you make a mistake while holding on to it, its okay. after that you can hold alt+ to remove unwanted selection in the lasso tool to decrease ur selection, or if you want to add stuff in them, hold shift while using lasso. That way, you never feel you made a mistake and u have to go back and do it again. lol

good tutorial keep it up i love your tutorials they really help you know what i know what you next tutoial should be it should be about smoothing your character and ading blur and other effects
hey when you blur your character how much 1 or 2 or do you duplicate the layer and blur it a litle bit more then put the dublicated layer to 40 opacity and merge down and dublicate the layer again then blur much more then the previos one and put hte opacity on 40 and merge down again couse i saw one of kifire tutorials and he said it gives more depth to the characters so i am confused i dont know how i shouldblur the character to give him smoothness and depth what should i do hope you can answer this question?

I blur him once. Duplicate the layer, blur to your liking and make the opacity like 40-50.
