I'd shoot myself if I have to spend over 25 hours on something...and for 2-15 hours my pieces aren't THAT bad...is it?
Yeah, not bad. I love them because they somewhat have a meaning on them.

Anyway, that video in the title is suck(damn it, i said it), but worth enough since she have the will to made it, so the suck effect is gone.
>I wonder why someone say "vector layer and pen tool", she is exactly used brush for line art, duh.
Yes, i also used brush for lineart. It won't hurt if you getting used to it. i'm using 3px brush for A4 size paper(2480x3508).
>For skin and other parts, she used different technique to fill them. I believe this because she looks at some tutorial, which i think false.
(What she do for hair and other is Magic wand > fill, and then find parts that not filled yet, and fill them with brush).
I think, just use the same technique for every part of base color, the same with the skin technique. That is:
Brush it until they overlap the lineart, then use magic wand to select the overlap area, and also the outer area, and then delete them.
BUT, this only if you want to play "without line art" drawings, i don't really feel it is necessary for those who still stick with lineart drawings. If you stick with lineart, magicwand>fill is enough(but it still have a one other weakness for the result)
>She is using lock transparency, using "/" button for every base color layer.
i don't suggest anyone using this.. Just use new layer on top of the base color layer, and then create a clipping mask(Layer -> Create clipping mask).
>For giving darker area color, she used lasso tool, and then fill them.
This depends, but i prefer for you to directly draw with brush for coloring it completely.
>For the BG, she playing with brush presets, worth enough to try for beginner.
STILL, all depends on how people like to do. What i said is what i like to do, you guys must have what you like yourself. I just write them.
