So I've started on my first TEF character.... And I've got the sketch complete, the lineart mostly complete, and I have the flat base color... but I have almost no idea what I'm doing when it comes to coloring and shading. I'm sort of just randomly using different things, and in the end I'm sort of sitting here feeling anxious because I'm just that lost.
If anyone knows of any good links to help me... Please share?

<sub>Anytime I get in-game, I'm unable to exit the game without it crashing and needing to close completely! I'd like to be able to be in-game and click off for a moment to check the threads or do something online, but I'm unable to.
And I hate having to exit the game completely to look at a tab for a moment because when I try getting on the game a lot of the time it glitches and I'm the only person on the map! Or there are select people on the map, and others are on and can see me... and could be directly in front of me, but on my screen I cannot see them or their picto on the border.

Help?</sub>
