Shadows with this kind of lighting are so hard to figure out at times I feel, so it's always a study. I'll have to keep that in mind! I keep wanting to soften the shading in fear the viewer won't be able to see the piece anymore at some point RIP

Thank you so much for the critique! I really appreciate the feedback. <3

Have you learned about soft vs hard shadows and light? While it isn't always relative depending on the style of art, it was revolutionary to my paintings when I started to grasp it. I do tend to lean towards a cell shaded, hard shadows only cartoony style these days, though.
I'm trying to find a good resource but I haven't been able to pull one that's (digital) art and not photography related, but even those articles seemed like they might be helpful at a glance. If you're interested maybe you can poke around and see if you find something that explains it well for you?
