This one is old, but here is an example of good shading I made. I like yours, who is that? If it is, what game?
I like the idea of shading like I did in general, I just haven't gotten it down pat yet. See her torso, it is good. See the pants, they are bad.
Also it's Sheyl v2. v1 looked like stuff, and those of you who followed my original Sheyl v_ creativity thread know this. The thread has died because of the password ordeal, but I am working on Sheyl v3 and I figured I should try to get a better shading system down before I start shading. I can post what I've got so far if you want.
