Finding this just before doing my knight oc helps... *A LOT*

[@spam-el3ee]

Bro armor is so hard, not only to design practically but also to shade realistically 😭 good luck with your knight oc too, see you on the other side lol

[@HipKidBrick]

I was just loosing my mind last night trying to figure out a method to do this, thank yo so much!!

[@JulianaDRAWZstuff]

Wow this was very helpful!

[@pineappleboidraws]

Whilst this is meant for digital art this somehow made doing traditional metal art 𝐬𝐢𝐠𝐧𝐢𝐟𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐧𝐭𝐥𝐲 easier, so thank you for that

Very informative video! I tried drawing a steel ball recently, and I think this correlates to what I saw within the references!

DISCLAIMER: I AM NOT A GOOD ARTIST. If I'm wrong about these things, please tell me, I am asking questions after all :) To me, the blue on gold is nice but too strong. Is it possible a blue ambient light on gold would create a more greenish hue (yellow + blue mixing) rather than a straight blue? And in the final illustration, wouldn't it make sense to add that ambient coloring into the darkest areas rather than just the middling value shadows?? Maybe it's just the stylistic choices

[@vibaj16]

I think it would just appear darker (gold absorbs most blue light).

[@spam-el3ee]

@@vibaj16 Okay, understandable. So like a more subtle blue tone, gotcha
