AND WARNING: MANY, MANY WORDS. AND THIS WILL TAKE AN INSANELY LONG TIME TO READ. HAH.**


Yeah; that's right. It finally happened. My first ever tutorial.
Yesterday was the only day I've had free since...well the beginning of July and I spent it working on this for you all!! Love me now :iconmegustaplz: rofl

So....yes. Pretty self-explanitory. This is the watercolor tutorial I promised my watchers innnn....February :? xD Yes; I AM A BUSY PERSON x_X

So if there are any spelling mistakes I would be grateful if you pointed them out ^^;
Also I might as well point out if anyone doesn't understand; THESE OPINIONS AND ADVICE ALL COME FROM MY OWN EXPERIENCE IN WATERCOLORING AND I AM IN NO WAY SHAPE OR FORM TELLLING YOU EXACTLY HOW SOMETHING SHOULD BE DONE. Just so we're clear there x3

Supplies I found links to!!:
Watercolors [link]
Sakura Pigma Pens [link]
Watercolor Paper [link]


DISCLAIMER: I do not own Allen Walker, Capri Sun, Pringles, iPod, JVC, or My Chemical Romance ;p

Now for the boring history!; :la:
I started watercoloring in Fall of 09' when I got fed up with having colored pencils as the only thing to color my art with.
Here's some of the early stuff...

I went from that first watercolor fail {wrong paper} and then into a bit of an ink phase when I had a Fall art class {free supplies :D} But atfer that I got lazy and discoraged and didn’t touch watercolors for a good 5 months after that.

I guess in the end I realized my gallery desperately needed more color and watercolor was the only way I had. So whalah! I worked at it in Fall of 2010...

Sexy Mailman, the first full-page only-watercolor deviation I did since May 2010 and then I didn’t watercolor for 2 months after that.
In November I was rewarded with even a bit more visible improvement with Nov 15, 2010

Hah I laughed when I was looking back on these old deviations today! On that first one it said <and I quote> “I hate using watercolors…but I SHALL CONQUER THEM!!”
So I still haven’t conquered them, but I am proud to say that I think I have improved a great darn deal!! I look forward to improving my drawing skills as much as my water-coloring skills :3

ENJOY! :heart:
