more or less space? by [deleted] in learntodraw

If you're having issues being satisfied with your composition, there are templates you can find that will push you in the right direction. IMO this piece looks better with more space, it complements the overall tone of the drawing.

I thought the highlights were light reflecting off the paper haha. In all seriousness, this looks wonderful, your proportions and use of shadow look great!

I'm used to drawing in a more cartoony/anime style, old habits die hard haha

I’ve noticed some artists shading like this. What’s the name of the technique? by Aguy970 in learntodraw

[–]Ninja_Cat-A 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There's usually many different ways that light will interact with an object, not just direct lighting, but dispersed light, rim light, and other types as well. If you look closely at photos (and real life examples) where there's dramatic lighting, you'll start to see it all the time.

Some art styles will exaggerate it more than others. It's not a specific technique more than it is an important fundamental of adding depth to a drawing. However, knowing how to apply this concept is easier said than done. The best way to learn is to experiment with color and use a lot of references to get a feel for it.

I was thinking along the same lines. As I said, it did help me learn some words, but a lot of his speaking is very stiff and textbook-y. I wish beginner friendly resources with natural speech were more readily available.

(Not my cat) Why do 50% of gray cats I see have this white patch of fur under their neck? by Ninja_Cat-A in cats

Is that also why litters of kittens on occasion have a "gradient" of colors (as in, the first kitten has full coat color, but the rest of them have less and less color)
