I just downloaded it, and tried to get some tutorials on Deviantart.com. Do you have any tips on using GIMP to try to do KP style art?  |

Hmmm... From what I've heard, it is quite similar to Photoshop (if you get the right set-up) so - Hmm...
Tips from Moi.
Keep using the program! I've been using my program for - about two or so years maybe, and I've picked up heaps from fiddling around with filters and tools.
Learning to use the pen-tool (if available) is SO a must!! Any tutorial on the pen tool should be effective, but - yes...
If you have a scanner, start drawing from paper to computer.

The "Path" tool in GIMP is equivalent to the "Pen" tool in Photoshop. Once you get that down, it is one of the best ways to 'ink' a scanned hand-drawn image.

I use GIMP for all of my work, but I'm not really that good at giving advice for it.
As said above, the path tool is the key to lineart, but as GIMP can give more 'pixelated results' than, say, photoshop, it's sometimes worth scaling up the image before stroking, and reducing it again afterwards.
As for coloring, I'm sure your familiar with the eye-dropper tool for fining the right tone. There are at least 2 main ways for filling sections, both needing experimentation with the 'threashold'.

Yep, that faithful eye-dropper!
