I was examining my lineart recently and I thought to myself why does it seem so...I don't know, simple. When I created the picture as a sketch on paper all my detailed lines we're in but I never seemed to pay attention to them when I digitally inked them. The more recent picture I submitted I wanted to focus more on the line art so it's more then a simple outline.

Im trying to learn each step as I go. I am, by far, not a great artist but I think I'm slowly seeing a little improvement. My biggest fear is coloring my pics. Taking on a program as complicated as Photoshop is a daunting task. Trying to learn what all the blending options, filters, color dodging and buring and much more, is turning out to be quite difficult. A lot of time I wish I could simply go for a digital graphics class at the local community college but that is out of the question. So its going to be experiment after experiment. Once again any tips, tricks or any kind of help would be greatly appreciated.
