can someone give me some tips to improve my manga coloring i am working on this write now its not yet finished
i started with this image

sorry i really don't have any tips to help you, b/c i've never really done any manga coloring, but i just wanted to say, its really good so far...it looks really good!!

thanks i just don't know how i can get the suit colored though .

One thing you could do is trace the picture and then colour it. That way you can recolour the suit from scratch. My opinion about what you've done so far is that it's good although the colours feel a bit bright for him. And he seems a bit yellowish.

ok i am going to try that and fix the skin.

If you're working with PhotoShop I can help you a bit, even when I'm not good explaining things XD.

Well, for skin I use a orange colour (not so dark nor light, in the middle) and then I use the Opacity nd put it on 2% or 35% depends on you, then I use a tool to make the shadow of some parts of the face and there you go ^^ for the eyes I paint the part with the eye and then change the effect to Colour or sometimes Overlay. For the clothes I often use Multiply (or Multiplicity I don't remember the anme and I don't have the PS on this PC), well it's the one under the "Darker".

it came out pretty good thanks every one.

Very nice! Good job, Xcomm!
