Course Description

Overview

Add a pop of color to your webcomic! Join Sarah Andersen (of Tumblr webcomic Sarah's Scribbles) for an entertaining, 20-minute class about bringing a lined comic to life with a 4-color palette.

Why color? Well, color is great for conveying the mood of your comic and helping you establish your own signature style. In this class, you'll learn how to master this skill, from selecting your palette to the "ins and outs" of digital coloring. Lessons focus on swatches, flats, shading, and more.

By the end, you'll color your own line art or use the downloadbale templte to practice your skills. All you need is curiosity and Photoshop. This short class is geared for beginners, but intermediate and advanced artists will also enjoy watching a fun, quirky comic come to life!
