requires a semi basic knowledge of the oekaki, a lineart, colors, and working computer and a mouse/tablet, and the ability to read. (I'm so funny hahaha not really)

to read just unhide each page as you finish the one before.

I'd love it if you linked to me what you've done when trying out this technique.

also, if you have any requests for tutorials or whatever feel free to let me know, even if I'm not the bestestest artist ever

Pictures I've done on the oekaki using this technique. (I'm only showing these as examples FYI)


these were done with a tablet.

but it also can look nice with a mouse.

oh and i don't really seem to understand the last step..?

so, if you hid the layer that has the actual color then you unhide it.
At the top of the layer box there is a selection box that says "normal' on it. Click that and scroll through until you see multiply (which is right after normal) or subtract. I usually use subtract on my pictures because I like how it looks with colors, but I used multiply for this tutorial image.
Underneath the layer mode box there is a bar that says "opacity: 100%" you can lower that until you like how the shading looks on the picture, but if you like how it looks without lowering the opacity that is also fine.
