shading

One of my assignments asked me to draw a comic book cover using existing comics and manga. This was my third attempt at using ballpoint pen for a drawing, my shading tends to look odd in smaller spaces but I'm trying to work on it

yo this account has been inactive for soooo long. ive also improved so much art wise lmao. ive started to watch craig of the creek again, and ofc i had to draw someone. (and yes I do know that the left hand is not right ._.) im not sure if im gonna go inactive again after this :/

This is my first time sketching a wolf. I saw some pictures online like this, so I decided to make my own version of it. Hope you like it

Explored texture for shading in this line art. It gives an interesting look. I like my meteor bonking the moon.

I’m bad at hair yet I chose to attempt curls..oh the irony. What are your thoughts or critique? My main focus was shading and eyes, but feel free to leave your thoughts on this as a whole

I found this drawing online of something like this. I traced most of it but some was cut off so I made up what was happening. Colored and shaded myself... I am gonna do fanart soon I promise.

This is one of my best so far, so proud of the shading! I’m just learning how.

Developing a new art style, the shading is similar to LavenderTowne but the linework/color scheme/form is definitely a trademark of mine,

Please.

To get a feel of how shading works for watercolor I had fun playing and learning. Not perfect but I’m working on it.

So after I did the pencil shading on my little cartoon fairy and bug, I added in some color with colored pencil. I surprised myself with the result.

Sleep Time .... good practice in shading.

this is my attempt at drawing a mountain. the shading is done by using a bunch of little dots on the darker sides.

Handsome pencil portrait work.

so I did this cause I wanted to see how my anatomy was being put to a test. It came out better than I had expected.

Progression 3 of 6. In this one, I focused on the hair some more, his ear, fine tuned the eye and add shading to his face.

I'z

Progression 3 of 5. Added more shading and detail. I noticed I got his mouth wrong and fixed it.

Progression 2 of 5. In this one I added shading to his face and neck and scetched out the hair. His ears were a bit tricky too since they are as distinctive as his eyes.

Progression image 3 of 6. 11x14 Marker paper, Medium Graphite Pencils (asst. B-5B). Added some shading and fleshed out her lips some.

I’m addicted to shading, I chase the shine, I’m addicted, and sometimes you find things along the way like these teeth that make me believe there’s a shade I gotta still hit just for that perfect shine that never falls flat. Ride that shade like a wave…

Another study

This is just a little thing I colored, the lineart is NOT mine. I asked my friend what colors I should do for certain things and I think it came together pretty well. The shading is also done by me. I forgot to watermark this one ^^'

So this was merely a color practice with different brushes. I used marker, airbrush and paint. The hair is paint, the face, shirt, bow tie and shading was all used with marker. The airbrush was for the shiny effect on his bow tie. I have no rhyme or reason for this image, it was just something I created in my sketch book. I just needed to draw something to play around with.
