Cell Shade and Construction(Need critique) - Perspective and Form

Anonymous · 2026-08-15T13:50:56.775Z

Practice doing cell shading on simple geometric shapes before moving on to more complex shapes. I'm focusing on just light and shadow, so no mid tones. Boxes are easier to shade but some more organic/rounder edges like cylinders makes shading more difficult. I also added arrows for the direction of light. I especially having difficulties shading the top curve tub. Side note: I purposely didn't shade the biggest box so the addition and reduction of shades becomes more prominent, but I would just shade the whole left side if I shaded it.

This piece is still a work in progress, but I would really appreciate some feedback on the composition and any other aspects you think could be improved

Deer/Rabbit/Canid Anatomy

One of my friends asked if I would be willing to draw his fursona (something I haven’t done before) and I said sure! The subject is a jacakalope (mule deer and rabbit hybrid) with canine teeth, inspired by some taxidermy he saw. I need some help with the anatomy, I’m really struggling with making the face look right and if you have any feedback on the anatomy of the rest of the pose or any other general feedback I would LOVE to hear it. So please let me know all of your thoughts!! :)

Stylized study 1 (stuck)

Pushed the colors, started a background... Making progress! Considering just fully painting it, but I'm a bit daunted by the drapery and inventing a new lighting set up from imagination. Any tips & suggestions are appreciated :)

Hello, I'm looking on advice to make this piece more striking (mainly the background and what I could do), additionally I'd like some help on the rendering of the clothes as it's one I struggle with, thanks.
