PART 2 HERE WE GO

OKAY now we get a lighter colour on the skin (add a clipping layer above ur skin layers for this. We’re back to the skin) and dab that on the cheeks, lil on the eyelids, and a bop on the nose. Then hit all that with Gaussian blur :3 now ur gonna wanna duplicate this layer, setting the bottom one to Colour Dodge and the top to Add. Makes it all pretty and warm while also adding that Sweet Sweet Glow

NOW ITS SHIRT TIME!!

I fucking hate shading clothes, fun fact.

Now the shirt itself and the logo are on different layers, so keep that in mind. I just. Slap a dark purple in the shadowy areas?? And a lighter purple where lights prob gonna hit it??? Blend that shit together w my trusty blend brussh????? Idk I spend like. 5 minutes on clothes in half my drawings lmao I Do Not Know How to Shade Clothes do not ask me lol

EYES!!!! This is Fun. Okay so take the fine tip brush and start with the darkest colours for the pupil and the shadows in the iris. I usually don’t use black for this, I prefer just a Very Dark version of the eye colour. Gradually work your way towards the bottom of the iris, mixing the colours lighter and lighter. I usually use about 2 darker and 2 lighter than the base eye colour to achieve this look, just intermixed w each other.

At this point I also get another clipping layer on top of this and. Slap an off white in a couple places all over the eye, Gaussian blur, and layer filters until I get a nice Shiny Eye :3

And back to the skin for my fav part. I love adding some blush to whoever I’m drawing. Adds life to their face I find. I get a tone just darker than the base skin tone and a tad warmer, slap that on the cheeks going in from the edges of the face, lighter towards the nose. I also add a blotch on the tip of the nose and blend it all out so there’s no harsh edges

And it should all result in this!! Somft. I like soft shading :3

Now this is obviously very focused on my digital art, but I follow more or less the same sort of steps in all my art, both traditional and digital.

And here’s a look at how I organize all the layers, and where all the clipping layers are bc I’m bad at explaining things. It’s worth noting that I’m using Procreate 5X for this

What’s your method for shading?

OKAY PREPARE FOR A LONG ASS ANSWER BC YA BOY WENT FUCKIN HAM WITH THIS ASK

Okay so let’s start with this lad here. Start with base colours, each colour getting its own layer. I also start roughing out a palette. The most important colours are the base colours, important to be able to come back to them when figuring out shading colours

Get urself a cool lil clipping mask layer on top of the skin layer. (This applies for all the shading. Do Not Shade on the Base Colour Layers. If u fuck up u can delete the blending layers without having to re-colour smth. Trust me. Don’t Be Like Me. Use Clipping Masks and make sure ur on the right layer. PSA over ✌️)

Okay now I get a colour kinda darker than the skin tone (I always start with skin?? Idk it’s a Thing™️) and I start blocking out the shadows. These are the areas that are typically gonna be in shadow?? So they’re a good place to start. Now. I fucking Adore procreates new blending brushes and my fave by far is the Medium Hard Blend brush, so that’s what Imma use for 90% of this

Ok so using the original skin tone and blend those shadows right the fuck out. Nice and smooth. Now u gotta take an even darker tone (make sure to keep em nice and saturated! The last thing you want is ashy shadows!!) and block in the deeper shadows. Typically edges of the face, under the chin, corners of the eyes and around the nose, etc.

Ok now before we finish the skin, time to work on the hair.

1 I Cannot finish one thing at a time and

2 it just looks toofuckin weird if u only work on the skin while everything else is just base colours. At least imo.

Ok so. Get a slightly darker tone than the hair to just. Map out where u want shadows.

At the side of the first image you can see my general rule for shading hair. I picked that up somewhere in my time on the art side o the internet and. Man. It fuckin slaps. So just going between dark and light tones, blend the hair out following that general rule while paying mind to how the hair falls (helps to block the hair out in Sections to visualize its movement better)

In the second image you can get a good look at how I organize my layers (but we’ll get into that later :3) but what’s important here is. Add another clipping layer. Time for highlights baybeeeeeyyyyy. I find it’s best to do them on a separate clipping layer bc. You can get Glowy without fucking with your shading :3

Kk scribble out some fuckin highlights in a tone just lighter than ur original hair colour and hop on over to the effects tab over in the top left (the sparkly wand!!) and slap a lil Gaussian Blur on this baby :3. Once you have the highlights blurred out nicely, hop into your layer settings and add an Add filter on it, and turn down the opacity bc Yes there is such thing as Too Much Glow. Pretty~

OKAY IMMA BE BACK IN A REBLOG BC THIS BITCH OF A WEBSITE WANTS TO LIMIT THE NUMBER OF PHOTOS AND MAN DO I EVER HATE THAT
