@MissConstrue@mefi.social Thank you, I appreciate it 🙏 This style of shading makes each drawing take so much longer to make, and there’s a tiny part of my brain that regrets the decision to use it, just like it did 15 years ago when I was applying to design school. One of the tasks we had as part of the application was to draw an A4-sized comic strip and I still really like how it turned out in big part because of this technique.

@tuomas_h@mastodon.social I started arting a few years ago in the pandemic. I started with paint and no idea what I’m doing, so I’m just now starting to understand shading and highlights. I can see them when I look at things, but I haven’t quite figured out how to translate what I see into what I paint. 🤷🏻♀️🙄. The way you do it is really evocative. I like it very much.
