this is a simple tutorial for lazy GIMP coloring. i am not an expert (in fact, i started using GIMP weeks ago) and i just wanna show how i manage to color, in a quick, lazy way.
GIMP's strength, for me, is the smudge tool- major blending power; it's ability for detail (like hair strands, etc.) is limited vs. Photoshop though.
----------------------
people were asking for less clutter, so i cleaned up a bit.
Your colouring may be called 'lazy'... that just means that mine is called 'lieing down and snoring gently'
Well done kid, I didn't honestly expect you to do one of these when I suggested it.
As for what I think of it: Informative and well written, but lacking clarity in the layout. You've got a lot of information, but tried to fit it all into the space too closely.
I can't fault anything you've done with the actual text, descriptions or images, they're absolutely clear. Personally I would have presented it differently, but that's my own preference.
A good job, Ben and I thank you for your effort, he because he wants GIMP now, and me because you've managed to give me ideas for my photoshop work ^^
Thanks a lot.

"So he... wait, what the heck are you doing?" "Spog." "S-wha?" "New word for belly-button fluff; Spog" "Wow... raping the English language again I see. Genius. I knew I kept you around for a reason."
no, it really is lazy. it's what the amazing artists dish out in their scraps with Painter or Corel and etc... come to think of it, though Photoshop is a lot more detailed and higher in resolutions/options/effects with brushes, GIMP has a nice ability to appear soft and also act as a vector (i haven't worked with it like that yet, but i want to) nicely. It's like Painter- at least to me.
i wanted to do one, so i could see what i did on a normal basis. (i kind of do the coloring in random order, with no steps and many alterations.)
the layout was messy and i realized that i wouldn't have space half-way through doing it- thus, i continued, but it's really just blocked together like legos of different sizes.
as for your friend, i'm glad to help. if you want more info on GIMP (the), check their site and download the program. it's shareware! (which is why i use it.)

You color very well, but the tutorial was a bit messy.
Which is why I skimmed trough the reading and mainly looked at the pics to see what you had been doing. With a nicer, bigger font and the pics in paragraphs, not all huddled together, it would have been great
It was still helpful though, and will be even more helpful when my headache goes away and I will bother to read your text thoroughly.

I'd like to show you some awesome nature related work from more or less unknown artists which deserve more attention - this is a must see, you won't regret it!!!
Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it.
Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.
I'm a lover of visual impacts. I like brilliant colors and shapes. And I decided to collect a whole stack of deviations that reflect that taste. These pieces showcased below deserve every bit of publicity you can give them. x)P
