How to Colour Mangacaps in Photoshop CS5

okay before we start, this is my way in colouring mangacap, you might find other ppl, doing a way better job that what i do, and thats great!, so this post is not all pro. 


first: Choose a Mangacap


second: i use the Paint Bucket Tool

to paint the major parts in the manga cap, like in this picture below, i painted her hair first and her face, and then the sharingan eyes on her forehead, all using Bucket Tool
But the bucket tool works on only the Background layer (i dont know why but yeah)



third: make a new layer, because you will colour it, the small parts, the shadowing for the face, and those little details, i colour it using my laptop, i dont have a tablet YET, so yeah


BUT, you use the "Darken" instead of normal, you will see that in the layers, above the layers, see the picture below.

the "Darken" mode makes it easier to colour !!! you wont have to worry about the black lines and stuff.
