Before start coloring, you need to finish the clean line art like this one.
If you already have your character with the clean line art, then you're good to go!
First, create a new layer and use "Fill" tool to add the plain color to the hair.
Define the light direction and use "Soft Airbrush" to color the lighter part of the hair.
Create a new layer in "Multiply" mode and use "Soft Airbrush" and "Watery" brush to paint the shadow.
Create a new layer and use the brush "highlight curve 3" to highlight the hair.
You may download the Hair Highlights Mega Pack brushes from the CSP assets store [ HERE ]
Many art creators will incorporate their designs into some small crafts. Such as keychains, badges, etc. These trinkets will become your unique little charm. Custom keychains can be hung on bags and are loved by many anime fans!
That's all of my anime hair tutorial. I hope this mini tutorial helps you with your hair painting process!
