Shading Practice

Postby jules_ » Mon Oct 31, 2011 1:03 am

As the title said, I wanted to practice shading so this happened. Criticism greatly needed.

the texture looks like fur, which is good, but its not really 'shaded'. It just looks textured. If you tried making the shading 'lighter' in places where the light is supposed to be, it might look a bit more realistic. Try looking at other peoples work, like TWG90 and see what they are actualy doing.

Dunno, Im no profetional, but thats just a suggestion;)

I added some highlights...I might have overdone it a bit.
