How To Make PSD Colouring Tutorial By ...Ashley
Have you always wanted to make PSD coloring but didn't know how to? Fear not my friend, I'm going to teach you in quick easy steps how to make one along with some tips to improve (I dont know much but I'll teach whatever I've learned) Let's start.
Steps
1a) Open some picture in your photoshop program (Any version you have.) We are going to make the coloring on the picture we selected. Choose any. I chose this.
1b) Look closely at this step. The red circled options are the main things you use to make a colouring. All you have to do is play with these and Tada, you made your first coloring. Let me go a little deep so you understand more better.
2a) Click on the folder icon to get a folder for your coloring. (See the circle marking A? Click it!)
2b) Click on the layer icon to make it easy for you to add things in the folder (See the circle marking B? Click it!) 
You'll have something like this. Do you? If so, great!
3) Learn how adjustment panel works like. See the markings A, B and C. 
A = Deals with the brightening, controlling amount of darkness and depth of the picture.
B = Deals with the Color adjustments of the picture. You can either eliminate a certain color or increase some colors in the picture.
C = Deals with the colors too but in a different way.
4) Play with the adjustments and they will keep adding to your folder automatically. Somehow like this. I used Brightness (A) Color balance (B) and you see the difference? See? Its that easy. Keep playing and observe the changing you create on the picture.
5) Save it by File>Save As > Save. Photoshop will automatically see the document as PSD file.
6) Upload and Share your PSD at deviantart.com so people can add it to their favorite, can download and can love you! :D
Tips.
1) Use these to add yellow color effect. 
2) Always use HD pictures for excellent results.
3) Not every PSD coloring is going to work with every picture. Examine the pic closely. See if its a bright one or a dark one.
4) Use Blur or topaz to make the picture smooth and it makes the coloring on the picture look excellent.
5) Fill the layer you add with some dark colour and set the layer to 'Lighten' blending mode. I filled my layer with Maroon so it looks something like this.
So that's all I know. I hope I was a bit helpful and you can now create your own colorings. Dont forget to show me what you make. I'll love to see it.
P.S If you're want the coloring I made in this Tutorial. Let me know :)
