Description
Long tutorial is long. Again @_@... I have got to stop making such long tutorials. Originally it was even longer before I increased the width of the whole thing. >_>Anyway, my basic Lighting Tutorial! This is for all of you who have trouble with lighting and how to apply it correctly in your works. This is how I got to understand it so don't take me for a pro or anything, though, but hopefully, it'll be somewhat helpful.
All photos in it are © me so no ripping, please.
Special thanks go to Brad and Nysha for letting me use some of their works. <3

This may possibly be one of the better lighting tutorials I've seen on dA. Nice layout and very easy to follow. Well done!

Oh, congrats. Evidently the mods don't think the terminology (indirect lighting) was important either.
