Description //i'll feature questions asked in the comments so you can easily see if your question has already been asked before! 8D

AAAA LOOK I DID IT 8DD
pls ignore any spelling mistakes eue

drawing done in sai
editing done in gimp
full body took about 3-4 hours to shade, bust took about 2 hours


i really never know if what i say in these tutorials is helpful or not, so if you have any questions i'm more than happy to answer them ; u ; <3

finished pictures:

the full res images can be seen here: sta.sh/22d6sinahcqm?edit=1
more tutorials: cakeindafridge.deviantart.com/โ€ฆ

it helps to use 'clipping group' and 'selection source' when shading - you can see how to use them here my sai brushes + tips

AND A QUICK NOTE: a lot of people think my tutorials try to explain the 'right' way to do art, and then go on to try to correct me
THERE IS NO RIGHT OR WRONG WAY TO DO ART D8<
this is how i do my art, and it's fine if you do it another way, just don't try to 'correct' me or anyone else
SORRY IF I SOUND LIKE A DICK but it gets annoying after a while 8D

I saw your work yesterday and I tried doing this magical shading technique but it didn't quite work out. (lil princess ย ) <-- Doesn't look exactly sharp or as good... I wanted to shade like this for years ;^;
What canvas size are you using? What brush setting are you using to erase the cells and draw the lines in? when I use the eraser it just makes it super messy.

that's looking good so far!! 8D

you can see the full res versions in the desc!
the full body was 2246ร—4800 px and the bust was 2100ร—1700 px
and the brush settings are in the tutorial, you just invert the brush by clicking the little checkered box (shown in the tut)

Thank you!! Ah yeah, the size of the canvas did make a huge difference. I was working around 1000x1000 pixels and less, I'm trying out 5000 right now and wow.
Sorry I skimmed over it and didn't see the brush settings ^^ I'll use them! Thank you very much!

Thank you very much for making this! ;w; I'm still kinda working on my shading (especially with detailed fur) this technique should come in handy!

Samorrin In reply to ??? [2016-06-28 07:19:45 +0000 UTC]

OH THANK YOU A LOT CAKE ;W;
MY MIND IT'S FILLED WITH NEW KNOWLEDGE
Also may I ask how do you make that 'fading' effect on some parts of the characters? Like that image in the tutorial, the right paws of Oliver and Wrex are lighter than the rest of the body and it give such a great deep effect ;3;

Cakeindafridge In reply to Samorrin [2016-06-28 07:44:15 +0000 UTC]

i just pick the colour from the bg and on a layer above everything else draw over the parts of the characters that are furthest away, to give it a foggy kinda effect

This is perfect! I always wondered how you shaded fur; thats my weakest point. Your tutorial gave me a lot of insight. Thanks a lot for making this!
