So I might be doing simple shading on the characters going forward? I spent pretty much the entire day yesterday staring at this page trying to decide what to do and today I said "fuck it" and just threw down some shading.
Will I do this going forward for all pages? I don't know! If I do I'll go back and add it to the previous pages. If I don't I'll come back to this page and make it match the other pages. Sometimes my brain just fights me and I can't make decisions and it makes my life hell. XD
My original goal, like with how I did First Impressions, was to add little areas of lighter tone to help show the form kinda like this: (examples on panel 2 and 4)
Downside of this is it gives the characters bodies a certain material look, which was fine for say Urn and Eilin as their bodies are smooth, but less so for characters with fur I think.Like I said my brain was fighting me and being like "this is bad! shade it!"
But yeah, just thought I'd share my thoughts. :) Feel free to let me know your opinion! Should I just deal with flat and just put highlights on areas that make sense (wet areas, things that would be more reflective, etc) or continue with the shading?
