Can I stop greyscale? / Watch your strokes!
Right I'm going to attempt to do a double episode here in the one post:
First of all - I've been studying value and grey-scale, but I am starting to get bored and I really want to go into colour - but not until I have the hang of value. What do you think?
I am just so desperate to start in colour but so scared/nervous - are there any good tutorials for starting our in colour? :)
Also, brush strokes - which one is "better"? Top or bottom?
The bottom copy is my first one but then I read from an artist that you should work in big brushes, big strokes with value (http://itchstudios.com/psg/) As you can see in this picture here:

So, ive tried to do this with the top potrait - does anyone have any tips to achieve that kind of effect? I really like it...
Anyway enough angst. World! Show me colour!!
