Thank you!
If I'm being completely honest half the time I guess! (Especially with fur) xD But something that really helps is looking at real images of lighting of a space, if I do get completely stumped I reference a sphere shading with its light source c: I'm by no means doing "proper" lighting lol but this was kinda the process for this piece specifically:
I ended up choosing my light source (the window).
Light Source Based on that I'm assuming it would be lighting up the back of the character so my shadows would be more in the front
ShadowsI'll usually exaggerate the brightest areas where the light is going to hit the hardest.
HighlightAfter that I end up puting in reflected light in areas I think would look nice but it's mostly trial and error! c:
