Tips for Thin Lineart by ikr (SAI/Photoshop)Ĥ. If people find tutorials that have helped them and it's not here, feel free to mention it with a link especially if it's not just Photoshop and SAI. These are here to help you learn techniques and perhaps make something unique of your own so experiment, experiment, experiment! Unfortunately, most of these only cover Paint Tool SAI and Photoshop, but you'll find that most of the techniques shown here do translate to other digital art programs that use layers like GIMP and FireAlpaca. There is no rule saying you need to follow these tutorials to a tee. So to reiterate again, this is a list for people who need to get an idea of how to approach CGing using programs like Paint Tool SAI and Photoshop in order to improve coloring in the digital medium.

A large majority of these tutorials do lean towards that style, but the techniques shown can be easily applied to any other style. **You do NOT have to draw/color in anime/manga style for your VN.

It seems there's a lack of direction when it comes to coloring and making the most of your programs, so I decided to compile a list of coloring/lineart tutorials since our Art Learning Resources thread is more geared towards getting people started on drawing and learn basic art concepts like anatomy, color theory, perspective, shapes, etc. Here at the Asset Creation section, one of the most common questions I see popping up is how to utilize digital art programs in order to do nifty things like lineart and shading.
