Hey! I kind of put together a visual of how I personally use layers! I hope this helps! 

Okay so first I start with the base layer 

This is where I sketch out the initial picture 

After the sketch is done, I turn the opacity down so that I can begin to ink over the sketch. (In some cases I have another sketch layer that acts to finalize certain lines while not quite being the final lineart.)

So! Once the opacity is down I add a new layer. Otherwise if I try to erase the sketch, the inking layer will erase too! 

I personally like to ink the hair in another layer, that way if I need to erase anything on the head I can do so without erasing the hair. 

After everything is inked, I click on the first layer’s “eye” button to hide the sketch layer.

I then add a few layers for coloring!

I color certain sections on different layers. Remember, if you want a color to be on top of another color, use the layer above the one you are on! That way if you erase you still have the base color.

And done!! ✨✨✨

LOL I knew that would raise some questions...

Okay, this is less towards Hartman himself and more towards the crossover animation today. Danny, for some reason, was really pale and non-glowy in his ghost form. So, there’s been a tag called #toast the ghost with re-edits making him actually tan and in some cases, giving him is glow back.

However, I did want to include it for a few minor reasons. (1) It shows the lack of care went to keep the animation consistent. (2) The general negativity towards new content, especially when it’s similar to the crossover episode, and (3) as I said before, it still feels like a blatant attempt to either entice the phandom to continuing watching him or his new work.  

Thank you so much! You made my day! Here’s a a plain, simple Danny just for you! (so you could forgive me for the delay of this answer <3)
