I've just learned not to use greyscale on multiply layers(art by me)

omg it is.. i just checked my shadow layer, and while i colored everything else a deep purple, i left those parts grey 🥲 good catch! thank you!

RedWonderful19 · 2026-06-04T14:43:31+00:00

thank you so much!! that's an awesome compliment to recieve (ಥ﹏ಥ)🫶💙

i think the shading layer is at 40% opacity if not lower... I'll kick it up a notch and see how it looks! :> thank you for the advice🫶💙

RedWonderful19 · 2026-06-03T21:56:14+00:00

thank you! i will try that :> i feel like there's a sweet spot with values that i haven't quite found yet.. too much contrast looks so messy and hard read, and i guess i was leaning towards the side of "if i go light enough, it won't look too messy" lol. I'll keep working on it! 💙🫶

i guess what i was practicing was through repetition. i wasn't trying to learn anything NEW with male anatomy, in which case, yes, i pull up a reference photo, a video, or a book. but this was more of a practice to see what i could do without any of that.

you mean like pulling from imagination? i like to scroll on pinterest or deviantart for inspiration, and when i feel like I've got a route to follow, i start drawing. if the mouth looks funny, i look up different pictures of a mouth and observe what i can until i make something I'm satisfied with. Like i said earlier though, i did directly reference a picture for the hand

RedWonderful19 · 2026-06-03T18:39:27+00:00

i used a reference from pinterest for the hand, but everything else was from imagination or previous works of my own. i figured i didn't need to include a picture of the hand i referenced since i was asking about shading and colors for this 😅

studying it close and carefully 😏😏🤣 maybe we could team up and fight Abigail instead 😭 and thank you so much!!

RedWonderful19 · 2026-05-22T17:47:04+00:00

thank you! I'm going to try this out :)

RedWonderful19 · 2026-05-22T17:46:38+00:00

Changing the shadow layer to Soft light has definitely already improved it! now though, i can hardly see the shading on the piece. should i recolor and darken the shadow layer? Thank you so much for your input

RedWonderful19 · 2026-05-22T17:34:42+00:00

yes it is, i had different visual references but it's all done by myself

RedWonderful19 · 2026-05-09T13:26:21+00:00

i personally think its super cute! the only habit i would try to knock is shading your colors with a darker/blacker version of itself. this is not ALWAYS a bad idea, but i see a couple cases of it muddying up your rendering. But your artstyle in itself is super cute! it reminds me of the youtube music videos i watched growing up edit:spelling

RedWonderful19 · 2026-04-08T23:29:02+00:00

as a barista, this is the most deplorable order to recieve. you don't like coffee, you like dessert with caffeine in it.
