Description
I did some more lighting experiment, but this time, with more cell shading than soft shading.I know my style looks like it's soft shaded, but the thing is, I never use the blur tool. Ever. Unless if I have to use it. So if I never used the blur tool often, then would it still be called soft shaded? I don't know. I guess it's a tiny bit of a mix.

Over all, this piece of art work is great!The lighting is good and the picture is good to look at! The only thing that bothers me is the hair. It does look good, but the fringe could be drawn a little bit better. By that I mean try to make a point where you want the hair to flow where the hair starts. it would look a lot better if you slightly adjusted the way you drew it because It kind of looks stiff. Everything else is perfect! The shading is amazing and same goes for the lighting. Well done!

So the first thing to strike me from this picture was her eyes. Absolutely gorgeous. Same with her face in general. One thing that I can't quite stress enough in all of my critiques is your lighting is perfect. You covered the moonlight perfectly. Another thing that I have to add is this picture actually managed to get me to ask a question. Why is she crying? I have never once questioned art like this. So well done. Secondly the stars and the rose petals are really unique and really help make the background stand out while keeping the focus on her. That in and of itself is a hard thing to do. Let alone the light and shading on the rose petals themselves. Very magnificent. The only thing I wish I could do is give a 6/5 for Impact.

Dyed her eyebrows red. And her armpit hair red as well! That would be funny!

MushiAnimates In reply to Spark1eFountain [2016-11-26 03:36:19 +0000 UTC]
Well its impossible for a anime character to dye their armpit hair because anime characters only have hair on their heads, eyebrows, and eyelashes. Other hairs can just go away. Like anime characters don't need acne and hair on their arms, legs and other places. No they only get it in the places people like.

TRUEEEEE
Anime characters usually have that "perfect" body and face tbh
I wish I can replace the word perfect with something else because I know nothing is perfect.

Anime characters look good in anything. Glasses make them adorable or classy. Fat makes them look adorable. Acne just doesn't exist. Everyone is talented in a way including being the biggest pervert. You'll never be alone unless you're that girl from WataMote. You can be born with unnatural colors of hair and eyes. You can live in a perfect world (or the worst world. Looking at you Attack On Titan). Seriously the only thing you need to worry about is demons and supernatural monsters but they're most likely the hottest people you've ever seen. All the yaoi you can see and fan girl about. Yeah anime is just wonderful. No one would worry about being self-conscious because you'll always look cute in one form or another.

That is true. Legit anything makes them look cute which is why I love the anime style. I do wish there's more yuri though so I can fan girl more

Im am more of a Yaoi person. Gosh I just fan girl to the yaoi anime that has a misleading name: Yuri on Ice. Even though it has 8 episodes I just can't stop the fan girling.

tbh it seems like all my friends are more yaoi fans xD

And by the way all the brothers are stereotypical.
They are all very dominant and have a tragic back story in one way or another.
You got the edgy insane one.
The very smart one.
The one with anger issues.
The one that's very flirtatious.
The quiet but deadly one that ends up helping you.
The weird one that is quiet and always listens to music or doing something I don't know.
And the one thay will always protect you but insults you.

Okay here's the story: a Christan girl has to follow this ritual that if your the chosen girl you have to stay with these Vampire Boys for God knows how long. And basically you get this back story on all these boys in which they're all brothers in some way. And like you get a some information about them in each episode. But heres the thing in every episode its girl does something, vampire boy pops out of nowhere, vampire boy suduces her, vampire boy bites her for as much times until she somehow finds a way to escape (during the process he says "Your blood is so good" or something like that) , girl tries to runs away but fails, girl gets caught again, girl gets bitten more, girl runs away and then pitys the boy, and then go back just to probably getting herself bitten or almost getting bitten unless another boy comes and they stop. You either get the information in three different areas: When she stops running, when she goes back to the boy, or at the end. Maybe in the beginning. There's probably get some info in other areas but that process, THAT PROCESS IS IN EACH EPISODE I KID YOU NOT.

And then they going to put a lot of plot twist at the end, one of which is that if you're the chosen girl your blood will be much sweeter and more desirable to vampires. That part angered me for so many reasons. Another thing is they porobably put it there to show their personality more. BUT, we could tell by their designs already how they're going to behave and what they say. Like one calls her a little b**** all the time in a flirtatious way and of purse has to wear a fadora. Like tell me you cannot tell how they will behave by looking at this picture: media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736β¦

I don't think soft shading requires the use of blur tool, I don't use the blur tool anymore myself. I used to, but found out better alternatives for it in Clip Studio Paint. I like soft shading over cell shading myself, but it's just a preference. In my opinion, a pic can easily contain both shading styles, using cell shading for hard shadows, like what the chin forms/folds in clothing and using softer shading to generate roundness in limbs for example.
I'm far from the point of being able to give critique, so I'll just be "boring" and applaud you for an another lovely emotion filled piece of art ^^. She looks melancholy (not sure about the spelling tbh, sorreh ^^), not quite sad but not quite happy either, which I believe you aimed for? The background with the flowers works nicely and the placing of the character itself leaves some room for it, which is nice.

I guess soft shading doesn't have to be blurred then, it just has to have this soft feel xD And thanks c:

Very nice, you just keep getting better and better. I think the lines on the roses pop a bit too much. Have you ever tried out line recoloring? Sometimes recoloring the lines to a darker version of the fill color creates a nice effect.
