For this tutorial you will need
Paint Shop Pro
The Following Colour Chart
Save and open in PSP.
This colour chart is just a guide, feel free to use whatever colours you want.
Ok we are ready to start.
REMEMBER TO SAVE OFTEN
Step 1: - Outline
We will be be making the Horse shown above. The outline below have been resized a lot so you can see it clearly.
To make this easier I have numbered all pixels over 1.
Select the brush tool with the following settings.
Size: 1 - Hardness, Opacity and Density: 100
Zoom in to about 800% - 1000%
Set your foreground to either colour 1 or 2 on the outline colour chart depending on where you want to start your outline.
Change the colours as you go. The yellow is Colour 1 (#E5CF9D) - the blue is Colour 2 (#6B859E) - the pink is Colour 3 (#9E6C75).
Open a new image 200 x 200 and fill with white so you can see what you are working on and draw your outline.
Use black for the eye outline and white for the eye inner.
