This is the cel shading tutorial I was asked to do by sweetyluli from DA.
It took forever and it is freaking HUGE but I think it turned out
ok. I'm sorry if it is a little confusing since I tried to cram everything into this..lol And it is my first tutorial so there are probably a few mistakes in there somewhere. If you find them please point them out so I can go back and fix them.

And I also put in how to use the pen tool at the top because I use it when I do my line art and cel shading. I just learned how to use it myself so I probably didn't explain it well enough. You can easily search up videos of how too on youtube or google though. You don't need to be able to use the pen tool but I find it very helpful for getting nice clean lines and shadows.

IF THERE IS A PROBLEM IN THE TUTORIAL PLEASE TELL ME SINCE THIS IS THE FIRST TUTORIAL I'VE EVER DONE!!! =D
