Description [Versión en español]

Well, since I got such a positive response in my poll, I'm very happy to bring you this tutorial about my coloring technique!
I won't say it's the best technique in the world, but this I assure you: it's very, very simple (once you get the hang of it, at least). I only use two brushes in the whole process! Don't be intimidated by all the text, I say a lot more than necessary
The extra part, about the final touches... Take it with a pinch of salt. I don't have much experience doing backgrounds, and I'm usually feeling very lazy when I get to this point of the drawing, so there are surely much better techniques out there.

Here's the eye coloring tutorial I mention at the begginning of this one:
 
It's kinda old, but I pretty much still do the same things that I explained there

I really hope you guys like this tutorial, and that it helps somehow!
If you have any doubts, or if there's anything I haven't explained well, don't be afraid to ask

What brush and brush size do you use for the lineart?

The brush I use is the regular pen brush with fade turned on (I'm not sure how it's called in English, it's a feature that makes the line turn thinner on both ends). The size varies depending on the size of the canvas and the effect I want to get, but it's usually 3-5 pixels wide
For smaller details, I use the same brush, but on 1.5 pixels and without the fade option.
I hope that made sense!

Hmm, I always found it quite close to Paint Tool SAI... But that goes on each one's tastes, I guess XD
