Okay so sorry for the wait but this took forever! So the last piece I did had a different style of shading compared to what I’m used to so I decided to experiment even further with some headshots of remade characters.

Robains/Articslayer: So this is just my traditional shading and I really love how it turned out but though this one turned out good I have to shade and lighten on the same layer as the color anddd lineart which can make things very temperamental- so my shading doesn’t look very consistent from drawing to drawing. I kinda have to hope and pray everything works out especially on a drawing with very gentle shading. Though I still love how this looks.

Deepmoon: Cell shading using the reference tool and then using pin light for the shading and the divide for the lighting gave this gentle blocky shading which looks very pretty here it’s a lot easier to edit everything using the reference tool which is a big added bonus. I also added lil effects which just adds to the character.

Venera: This was me attempting a painterly kind of shading but I don’t think it worked as well as I hoped it still looks cool! Also I am in LOVE with her eye effect I did! I think painterly styles should be left to more muted or light coloured characters cuz it just looks a little wrong here (oof). I also added flicks to the sails to give a little glitter effect which looks amazing!

Thunder: This is a loose attempt at the intense black shading style but I don’t thing my ‘electric taser ram’ was the right candidate I tried a little more effects to bring out the features of this abisal but I’m not sure exactly how it looks but I think it’s a start!

Putekli: I LOVE THIS, I basically did my same dramatic shading now using the reference tool and then also made separate lighting layer for lighting and this looks beautiful! Will definitely use this in the future for some pieces!

Noilbem: This was an ‘attempt’ with trying to do that tree above casting leaf shadows but ehhh that decided it wouldn’t happen. Though it made a more painterly appearance compared to Venera lol.

Kojo: Another experimental attempt at shading was to see if I could use the short hair brush to make shaded fur but it just kinda made everything blurry. Sorry Kojo Xd

Sokeria: This was a more dramatic cell shading and it looks okay- like I have nothing against it but I don’t exactly like it so eh.

Anyways if you want to add your opinion feel free to say in the comments!
