Some information on my process.

Thought while working on this art commission why not give some information on my process.

In a way I have two but this is my main one. With this one I will go closer to how animes block out their shadows but with more types of shadows.

Such as Form shadows, cast shadows and reflective light. It creates an almost paint by numbers look as I have isolated most of the shadows.

During this process I do keep in mind the color of the light source and shadows while also considering how they will look on the forms local colors. Such as her green skin, with the bright warm yellowish orange light. It will look more closer to yellow, than green. It also depends on how bright or saturated your light is. If your light isn't that saturated with yellow then in this case you would see a more warm green.

Not saturated light Saturated light

After this I will soften some of the form shadows to make some parts feel more soft. Like the face and sometimes fabrics.

Then I go into details, like tattoos, patterns on clothes and armor ect.

Hope you all like this bit of info and a bit of color theory knowledge. Hopefully it's helpful too to any artist who wants to know a bit about my process and wants to try it.
