graphics program colouring?

[tielan]

Um...help?

I don't have a tablet, I have a pencil, and eraser, a sketchpad, and Paint Shop Pro. I'd like to start from a pencil sketch and add colour, but using the mouse doesn't give much precision (or, really, any at all) and I'm not sure how else to do it.

If the worst comes to the worst, I can colour it in pencil, or, if I get really desperate for blending effects, paint.

But I think it might be useful to learn how to colour using a graphics program. So, anyone got any links on 'how to colour using a graphics program'?

I think it had color in the name, you might be able to find it with intelligently searching the gimp plugins listings but I don't have time to sorry. :(

Well, never mind about it.

I'll try some other options for the moment and see how they work
