Thanks, I've been trying out a different process recently! It involves setting a multiply layer over the whole thing and doing the light sources as their own layers, instead of painting the shading directly onto each layer, if that makes sense
Makes sense, for naive, completely diffuse lighting (not reflective) the result is just the sum of base color * light visiblity * cos(angle between surface and light) for every light
And then for light bounces just repeat that many times, but considering every surface as a light
In the general case, for a more complicated material, the resulting brightness on a surface can be pretty much any arbitrary function of wavelength, the angle the light comes in, and the angle of the observer (called a BRDF). As long as it's not putting out more light than it's getting in, it's probably possible. These functions can get especially complicated when there's multiple thin layers, imagine a brushed metal surface with a layer of oxidization, a clear coating, some dirt, and some dust. Even for a single position on the surface, each of those reacts so differently to different input and output angles that no simple functions will represent the surface well. For CGI in films, they usually will layer many simpler BRDFs together, but that's slow for games, which usually try to approximate surfaces in a single one.
You’ve been getting fancy with shading and light direction lately, it looks good!

You have an excellent sense of fabrics. I'm jelly
the shadow kinda made it look like the hat had dog ears.
I actually have a couple of sketches of her wearing a beanie with cat ears lol
how could you hide them? 🥲
(to be clear, the hat had cat ears, not her)
and i need to see the silly cat-ear-hat
where is this bird image from
i guess this is the original
thank you. I must collect all of the precoous creature.
Beautiful style and cute character, Lovely 🌟
Very good. I would double-check the leg placement cause those look... low. The groin is below where the hips connect, not in line with them.
Eugh, good point 😅
Looks awesome, reminda me a bit of Eve from The Binding of Isaac.
Yaaay!!! more art!!!
she reminds me of Miku in Looping the Rooms music video
