Hi hi! Cool pose for Jinx! You have a good start, now it needs correct shaping. This consistency is crucial to making the shadows look logical across the entire body. To make this step easier for yourself, draw the boundaries (terminator lines) where the light side turns into the dark side by following the planes of human figure. Treat each element as a geometric form as you do shadow mapping. Treat the shadow as one solid, flat shape without tones or gradients yet. Within your mapped area, distinguish between form shadows (soft shadows on the body itself) and cast shadows (sharp, dark shadows caused by one body part blocking light from another). Add dark values to your shadowed areas and soften edges only where the form gradually turns away from the light. Resist the urge to draw details in the shadow. Keep the shadow mapping clean and focused on shape. Hope it helps!
