- I apologize if this is the worst tutorial you have ever seen lmao
i also forgot to add, the time it took for the first illustration is around 5-6 hrs while the second is around 4-5 hours i made the 2 illustrations in the span of 3 days
I tried to make this as beginner friendly as possible but i really suck at this but i hope this still helps

I am not really a begginer, but I do get stuck at the coloring stage rather often, so watching someone else with a similar structure (Separating everything in different layers and playing with the layer types) explain their process is very motivating and helped me complete some illustrations I wasn't sure how to color, so thank you! Comparing our processes I was able to add some steps to my own that I ended up liking a lot.
same
I agree
here as well
Me too i used draw with paper and pencil only so i draw god tier sketches but suck and painting xd
I used to*
Ever since I saw your art I’ve been obsessed with your style and how you draw, seeing this is like a dream come true!
sameee, before seeing this video, i literally tried doing dectective work to try and understand niro's workflow💀THATS how obsessed i am with the art style
(ALSO, LES GOOOO I WAS RIGHT ABOUT THE G-PEN🥳🥳🥳)
Words cannot describe my gratitude for you for saving me years of research and failures! Thank you!!
FINALLY someone who explains their layers thoroughly!! I've just started to use the multiply layer for shading because it's the only layer trick I somewhat understood from videos that didn't explain that part. 5:33 is my new cheat sheet
These techniques really help add depth to something that feels lacking ✨ Ty
Finally an angel who explains every tool as possible, especially the blending layer modes. Thanks!
I love how you go over and explain multiple processes and explain the pros and cons of it and not just stick to one! Really shows the versatility in ur art!! Ty so much this video was very helpful!
It’s refreshing to find a gate keeping free CZcamsr so many people with hold information for what ever reason and this was straight forward and genuine hands down most informative straight away
Appreciate all the effort you put into making this video, I'm currently starting with drawing recently, and as a beginner, there is a bunch of stuff I need to learn more, and hope that I can bring my imagination art to life in the near future and share it to everyone else. Hope you can keep sharing your knowledge.
across all the videos on youtube about digital coloring, your videos is one of the best among them, man i dont know how to put it into words but, thankyou so muchhh niro!
Your tutorials and advice really helped me get out of the art block I've been in, keep up the good work
you are honestly one of my favorite artist and your tips are the most helpful and assuring out of all videos out there.
Your way of editing and the visuals make it soo easy to understand, thank you
3:42 Thank you. This is exactly what I need. I couldn't find a single tutorial teaching how to organize layers for coloring.
As someone who struggled going from traditional to digital, this helped me so much, Amazing tutorial!
Finally a video that featured kinds of things that I still to date don't understand, but not anymore, subscribing to you was worth the 3 seconds
Your video is so helpful! I always got confused with colour theory and blending layer modes😅 was tired searching for a video that actually help me improve at coloring as a beginner and damn! You explained everything so well. Thanks!
I'm very grateful seeing that color blending stuff, i'm newbies on digital art, seeing this really useful, thanks !!!
I can say that this is one of most comprehensive tutorial I've seen. Though I started digital art using ibispaint on my phone, Trying clip studio paint was quite uneasy. Thank you BTW, I got some connected fragments of insight.
i love making arts, specially making the composition and doing the linearts. The biggest problem i had so far is color theory and blending mode technique and tricks, which is the reason i prefer to go black and white art. This helps me a lot on understanding the basis and steps! tysm for that!!
Use simple brushes when you are a beginner.
G pen, water colour brush, air brush, eraser.
Multiply + colour burn for shadow.
Overlay + colour dodge for highlight.
Selection Tools
Layer system
After finishing base colour, use clipping mask to do the rendering.
Tips: Use both soft and hard shadows and try balancing them.
Thank-you so much! Just getting into digital art and you've made it so much more approachable for me I'm really begining to enjoy my art thank-you!!!
i use ai as a reference too! im not able to see things in my imagination clearly so ai helps me see what i was imagining more clearly! its never exactly what i want cause ai usually isnt the best but with the visual example im able to actually see what i want to draw in my head! its like a crutch for when my brain isnt working its best. its also helping me learn how to have better composition since thats something i was struggling with learning! for a while i was very frustrated about ai and the things it could create but i decided to use to my advantage as a tool instead! aside from the people abusing it to replace real artists, it can teach us a lot as human artists!
what is the ai that he uses and where to get those images?
Thank you,this is the video that helped me understand the layering system!
This is a great video, you actually break down what brushes, layers, and blending modes etc. kudos
Thank you! For including information about features in different layers, because those are the things that we tend to miss out on.
wait. ive never thought to try and ink hair before coloring. that looks so fun gotta give it a try
I always wanted to do the hazy effect on my drawing about never understood but Thankyou so much for these amazing art tips! 😭❤️🙌🏼
You don't understand how much this helped me since others advices don't really clicked w me, tysm!
Gosh this was hella insightful😳😭finally I understand the workflows and a bit of techniques thank u sm😭🤍🥺
this video is so freaking good, its perfect on what a beginner needs to know! honestly deserves 1mil views
Thanks MrFeast
Thanks bro,, i needed this.....i was having trouble with how to use the blending modes for shadows lighting.
Bro i love your art, you giving a lot of good tips too, thank you so much
new sub! i was very suprised to see how similar your brush choices were to mine lol!! your process is very fun to watch, and i love how you color
such a simple and easy to follow tutorial. Thank you!
Finally a guide that explains everything, or at least I hope it does, will check it out latter
I have a better understanding now on how to use tools and gimmicks in CSP. Thank you so much
super interesting pov on using ai art as references! I think that it is alright because there is a phrase, "steal like an artist", where it encourages artist to "steal" by using other peoples art as a reference. I could ramble on, but it's some super cool food for thought.
Wow i always get surprise when u upload man, idk how but everytime u upload u just upload what i struglling is 😂
the most clear tutor I've ever seen 😭😭😭
I use ai as inspiration. First, ask chatgpt what to draw, then I copy and paste what it told me to draw into a thing that makes prompts into images and use those images as a reference
pretty helpful i am at semi old age getting back into drawing i think it was the cybperpunk edgerunners honestly that sparked my intresst in it again tbh been using clip art as well and i had no idea the person used it as well lol. but the color tips are really intressting and straight forward . ive been using ai kinda for the same reason you do for reference but not for stealing since i dont publish it anywhere. it kinda helps to find a style you wanna stray for in a sense.
I like your makima painting! Solid work 😄
Thank you so much. Ypur tutorial is so simple and quite understandable.
Thanks for the video, is absolutely good to know other ways to make art
THANK YOU. I’ve been looking for a video on Layers and how to use “fancy” stuff like overlays etc. like I just want to learn how to color digitally, but when I search coloring for digital art it’s just color theory which I don’t need cuz I already know 😭
“The art that the ai makes is the kind of art i want to make with my own hands” that’s the perfect way to say it.
Thank you telling us that you used A.I as a reference. I think that was the purpose of A.I but people are using it for commercial use :( Thank you for the video!
Your tips realy help me a lot! Thank you very very much :)
thankyou for this amazing tutorial, this help me a lot
Blending modes can be difficult and you might feel like you need to remember them all but realize blending modes just change the color of things. They are quick color changes rather than manually changing out colors for certain affects aka color picking. Thats the best thing about learning color theory is all the cool art you look up to can be done by simply choosing the right color. IMO the better your color picking skills are the easier it is to paint in general.
I LOVE YOUR WORK
I feel like I’m the only person (or one of very few) out there who gets more enjoyment from doing the lineart than coloring lol
I learned a lot from this video. Thanks!
Hi, I'm new here, and I'm getting my first drawing tablet and I've watched some of your vids, and I never drew before in my life, but you got me to want to start, so thanks 😊
Really great video! Thank you
I learned so much OMG THANK YOUUUU
Beautiful video, thank you 🥰
I really Love You!, you teach me everything that i ever want know! thx!!!!!
YOUR VIDEOS ARE SOOOO GOOD
"Colour study" what you call is actually just how artist pick appealing colours and how they arrange them sort of a puzzle. Values is what we need to work on
I'm glad to hear you found the information helpful! As you explore different art styles and techniques, how do you decide which approach to use for a particular illustration?
you are an absolute legend
thanks you for sharing these tips!
That's so awesome. It's helped me a lot. Also can I ask you how you chose the color for basic base illustration? Or adding some rim effect on hair? Thanks man.
i like this artist. subscribed!
Subsribed!... Nice tutorial. Love your style
Thanks for the tips mate
Great video! 😀
Godsend demo!
Ive had a really hard time finding a video that explained how to use blending modes this simple and effectively.
Thanks for being honest about your use of AI. So many artists are using it covertly. Hopefully they will start to compensate the artists they're trained on because I don't think AI is going anywhere.

This dude trying to collect artstyles like he's Suguru Geto
I def agree with brushes not mattering, though i think brushes kinda improve your art. It might not help your understanding of anatomy or technical skills but sometimes I feel like a brush that makes the certain texture, shape etc of the lines that you want, will make you want to draw more. Like for me I like more soft round/square or painty brushes so it makes my art enjoyable because I have a specific brush I like
anyway i shall be a new sub
The way you draw face shape + eyes is really good. I'm trying to learn how to draw this shape, but it comes out very triangular and awkward when I do it. I suspect there's a lot of nuance to the way you bend the cheek lines that I'm not understanding yet. Thanks for the tutorial. One thing I don't understand - you apply multiply shadow to the entire piece, and then erase it? Or do you apply multiply but what looks like 'erased multiply' is in fact another blending mode painted over the multiply?
Really great video
Hello NIRO
Do you separate multiply layer for each part like face, hair, etc. or just one multiply layer cover the whole image ?
thank you.
VERYYY HELPFUL
I'm a beginner at digital drawing, and I never colored anything when I was drawin traditionally, it's been so hard to learn this digital tools :(
Cool!
This is amazing holy shet
11:35 "i mean just take a look at this... idek how to feel about this" sounded so dead AHAHAAHHA me too man 😿
Thank you for this
Thanks, man
Very good tutorial
you are a godsend
Great tutorial video, would you be able to explain how you choose the values in your colours? I know you mentioned you can check them with a white + colour layer but how do you determine whether it's too light or dark?
For me typically I err on the side of too dark because blending will soften up the transitions and pull it back into light but i'd like to hear your thoughts
A general tip I could give is training your eyes to see if a value is good or not. to train it, you could look at a bunch of references in black and white and see how they usually look. After looking at enough references, you will develop the instincts to tell good values.
Your inspiration is Ilya Kuvshinov?! I absolute love his art and I discovered him when the sing yesterday for me anime came out in 2020. He’s apparently a huge fan of the show and even animated for the anime and drew the illustrations for ED 2 or 4 I forgot. Amazing dude just like you :>
Thank you so much
Pls make a full tutorial for head structure
thank you omg
Оп, наконец нашел видос где разбираются слои. Спасибки
when an illust making video bc i still struggle with layers order and efficient ways to paint, also some other techniques plss. very helpful video!!
when i color, i alway just make fill all colors on one layer , and I almost forget to separate them every time. I just wanted to ask is it possible to use a layer mask to separate the parts in this case? , sorry if it bad grammar.
Thank you
Could you share what books or materials did you use in the very start to learn the basics and fundamentals?
yu explain it so well and i love your work. i dont think vetern artist be knowing just how alien the UI of alot of these art softwares be looking to newer artist and understanding basic things like how many layers do i need to have for the most controlled outcome or how many colors we should be using without it looking like unicorn barf. what im trying to say seeing the work flow and other ppl's order of operations, makes all the difference. keep up the good work
Ty
Great viewpoint on AI. Keep doing what you’re doing ❤
so back when i started out drawing all the way back in 2013 i used to study from anime screencaps. they looked great to me at the time but little did i know the anatomy was severely flawed and thats what i saw several years later when i looked back at my old anime reference images. Same thing with the ai images. they might look fine to you now but for one they've got very inconsistent lighting and cant do accurate reflections at all. they often dynt know how to transition between certain fat / muscle insertions on the body etc so be careful when studying from them.
Do you use the g-pen as it is, or did you make any changes to it? And thank you for making this video! ❤
12:53 what color and opacity of color dodge layer is that? When I try to apply color dodge for lighting, it just a pure white mess unless I choose a super dark color. I just feel more confused with this tutorial
