Good luck on the webcomic! ^^

[@nidgithm]

"lighting does not always need to be volumetric" is actually a great tip. i always obsess too much about the lighting being accurate, to the point where ill make the drawing look worse just because "then the shading makes more sense" also honestly i have been using some of these effects, but often the effects (like adding a gradient) end up being way more powerful than the actual shading and the actual shading becomes barely noticable lol. though this usually only happens when i actually render a character, not with cell shading

[@ManuMercurial]

for suresies! I've found the key with all this is to use it subtly. And the shading tip for non-volumetric shading has saved me a lot of pain in animation haha. Best of luck!

[@Mr.Beanyuwu]

Coming here and watching that end part where you promote AI as a "base" after all the damage AI has done to the creative industry and to indie creators is an absolute whiplash of a feeling

Would you make them totally white, or would you add a hint of another color to them?
