It took me forever to start using Paint Tool Sai, mainly because I couldn't figure out how to use the darned thing. But when I finally figured it out, I fell in love with it.

Now, I know I'm not that great of an artist, and there are probably better people out there than me to teach this program, but darnit if none of them have stepped forward to make a tutorial. So here I am, showing how I do my particular style of coloring in PTS.

I know that this tutorial is disorganized and bad, but if you can muddle through it, maybe you can learn from my mistakes and have a better time coloring.

Anyway, here is part 1, how to do lineart!

(Also: hope  seritaph doesn't mind me borrowing his character for this.)
