Combining Hand Drawn with Photoshop

Here is something I see less uncommon these days. It is a very simple process as well. You take a hand drawn, uncolored art like this was, many times from a manga or something, and open it in photoshop. You then proceed to make new layers set on the multiply type. Then you choose you colors with the round brush and go at it. Multiply allows you to color over black lines and thus not having to worry about messing up as you have layers as well. This is what happened with the above picture. What makes this better is that is uniquely drawn AND colored by the same guy. And how he was able to color it with all the curves and styles plating around is pretty awesome to say the least. As I said, it is not uncommon these days and many people do it, even professionals as it is easier to color in photoshop than real life.
