    Colour & Outlines

Colouring and outlining your people is more or less the same as colouring and outlining your buildings and objects. It all really depends on the overall feel of your piece. If your buildings have a washed out colour then its most preferable that you colour and shade your people the same way, as so they fit into the scene without looking out of place. My people in my recent works all have a single black outline and the inside lines are all darker colours of the clothing and skin shades. As I said, colouring and outlining people is really much the same as I have already explained.
