shiny love

 Loading ...

i’ve never been completely happy with the ‘look’ or finished images of my characters. i crave simplicity, but i love the complex shading and highlights of more painterly anime. my latest religion is an environmental map gradient shading trick that adds subtle depth and color to surfaces, but keeps them reasonably uncluttered.

bai yu’s latest image now sports this shiny new look, and i’ll prolly be retro-rendering some more over the next few weeks.
