Our example image below, started as a simple black and white line drawing. Using the techniques shared in this tutorial and in our previous tutorial, Overlay to Change Line Colors , you could create a colorized image similar to that shown below. Imitate the overlay look of the old color printing process by selectively coloring outside of the lines.
