  I sketched it on paper, but the ink and color was all photoshop.

  Ahh i see. It has a distinctive watercolor look. I know the programs can do it though lol, just never seen it so convincing.

  Hah! It's just a multiply layer with some clever settings on the smudge tool, really. :3 Plus a multiply layer with a scan of an old piece of paper on top. It makes it seem a little more like real media, I suppose. I just like the little dark spots it makes.

  I have no idea what you're saying XD
  
  I have PS but i don't seem to know my way around it. I'm learning Corel right now; it's difficult but i love it. Still new to digital, but i love my new tablet.

  Oh! XD Well, you can set your different layers to different settings. They're usually Normal, but when you change them to Multiply in the layer settings, it makes it all transparent, and the colors blend into the layers below. It makes for some really nice effects. I think Corel has the same stuff, so you might want to give it a go!

  Hmm...perhaps when i'm switching the layers around i'm just doing it wrong lol! This soundsl ike it makes sense. I hate watercolor, but maybe this tip will change that! (Digital watercolor that is)
  
  Not sure if it will do the same thing, but either way it gives me an idea of what to try and re-create.

  Thank you! Yeah, he's a pretty sneaky, snarky guy. He has so many plots, like you wouldn't believe. XD
  
  Hahah, that's what an hour in photoshop will get you.
