Flash for Artwork: Coloring Detailed Art

After your Flash artwork has been retraced, there are many options for coloring--from solid fills to gradients, creating soft shades or manually filling in various hues, highlights, and shadows. The fun thing about creating this kind of detailed artwork in Flash is that when you're finished, you have an object that can be manipulated in any way that you wish to animate what was once a static pencil sketch.
