Unable to simply paint...

Greets!

Here's my trouble: I can't apply colors on my sheets with painting tools. I've chosen the primary color, and no color comes out of my brush/pencil/aerograph...

What's wrong please?

Difficult to tell from your description.

Best guess: You have a grey scale image. Convert to RGB.
Image>Mode>RGB

Always best if you give as much information as possible. A complete screenshot (as below) often helps

Some common beginner problems.

1. The selected brush is the empty clipboard - select another brush
2. There is a tiny active selection difficult to see. (sometimes a single pixel) - turn off selections Select -> None
3. Painting on a layer under some other opaque layer. Also includes painting outside the bounds of a small active layer. - Check the active layer can be seen
4. Rarely. The lock pixels toggle is on - toggle it off.
5. Silly settings in the paint tool options. Zero opacity, tiny brush size, incorrect use of mode.

   

Check those. Come back with more info.
