Izo. Have a very humanoid robot guy for Thanksgiving! (Photoshop. 11/23 - 24/2011.)
Simplified process (although the last step is color and that is the main picture):

1.) Initial sketch out in photoshop. I always like to work in blue for this.

2.) With help from the initial sketch, clean up the lines! Always do this in black. Although there have been times I have then sectioned off different parts of the outline and changed their colors.

3.) Bye bye sketch lines! I don’t actually delete them, the layer just gets hidden. After this is color! I tend to do base colors, then shading, then highlights. Each of those different types getting their own layer for each “part” of the picture. A “part” being like, skin, hair, eyes, that sort of thing.

The fun will never end
Animation Time!
It is what it is. Needed a break form homework so I doodled and colored.
