The motorcycle is highly detailed, full of mechanical precision, while the girl’s large eyes, expressive face, and flowing lines of the dress add a dreamy, romantic vibe. The speed lines on the ground and the swirling fabric create a sense of high-speed movement, almost like we’re watching an anime scene in motion.

How to colour the manga drawing step by step

Start with the Background

Begin by coloring the background first—it’s easier to keep the main characters clean this way.

Sky: Use soft light blues and blend toward white near the horizon. For drama, try sunset colors like orange, purple, or pink.
Trees and cliffs: Use deep greens for the foliage and grays or warm browns for the cliffs and rocks. Don’t worry too much about small details—just keep the background calm so the girl stands out.

Color the Motorcycle with a Realistic Look

This bike has tons of shiny parts and complex details. Here you can practice highlights and metallic effects.

Body: Choose a bold color like red, electric blue, or matte black. Leave small white areas to suggest light reflections.
Metal parts: Use gray or silver tones, with touches of blue or pale purple. Add thin white lines for extra shine.
Shadows: Use dark gray or blue for areas like under the engine or near the tires to show depth.

The Girl: Skin, Hair, Expression

Time to add warmth and emotion!

Skin: Use peachy or beige tones, and maybe light pink for cheeks, nose, and elbows. Leave a bit of white on the cheeks and forehead for a glowing effect.
Hair: Be creative—brown, blonde, pastel pink, or even lilac work great. Add depth by making the roots darker and the tips lighter. Thin white streaks can simulate shine.
Eyes: Make them sparkle! Pick two tones (like green + mint, blue + turquoise, amber + gold) and leave a white dot to represent reflection.

The Dress: Movement and Volume

The dress is flowing beautifully, which means you can play with color gradients and fabric texture.

Base color: Try red, royal blue, bright pink, or even shimmering white.
Shading: Follow the fold lines and use a slightly darker version of your base color to add shadows.
Highlights: Use white or very light tones on the outer curves and raised areas to show the fabric’s shine.

Final Touches and Effects

Motion lines: Add faint streaks of color behind the wheels to boost the sense of speed. Use colors that match the road or background.
Ground shadows: Add a soft gray shadow under the bike to ground the image.
Lighting: Pick a direction for the light (like from the left) and apply consistent shadows and highlights throughout the drawing.
