How do I shade it better? - Rendering - Community Driven Art Feedback Platform

Rottened Fished · 2026-07-01T12:34:10.718Z

I'm new on using alcohol markers and I feel like that the shading dont look right and doesn't convey that the body is round and blubbery.

Couldn't quite get to 30 :) Three sketches here all done individually, one per day.

Figure Study

Hi, I have tried to analyze some of the dynamics figures in MTG cards. Im aiming to master the perspective for dynamic poses as it is the hardest subject for me, and i grew weary of the stiff or frontal figures that i usually do. And also i believe my lines lacks the confidence to create a smooth figure. Kindly assist me with this study and me, or some advice to keep practicing it and resolve this obstacle and feel more natural on it. Thank you sincerely for your support.

Squirrel token MTG card WIP

I was in middle of uploading when i saw something at the belt. So the most i struggle with is the jacket. I feel the material should be cotton. I am not sure how the light will hit it and the folds.

I have been trying to tackle this kind of space lighting for a while. Unfortunately nothing seems to click and I can't seem to get the outer space environmental lighting vibe right? (My reference for this is the iconic "Untethered Spacewalk" picture

June 30th Submission

Its been 30 days. When i started this challenge i wanted to win. But the act of doing this challenge. Showing up every single day has improved my approach to art and my skills. And there can be no greater reward than that. Even if i just wanted to quit on some days. So im sending it off with the only traditional piece ive made for this challenge. What are the 3 things ive drawn? How have i placed them on the page, i hear Rembert ask. Ive drawn an eye, a nose and a mouth. And i placed them on the face.

I would like to know if the lighting is correct.
