[BlossomedRose]

@Bidon45 Well, it was my first drawing in photoshop with a tablet...and it's not a finished image, but I will try improving. I can see how it is "flat".

@BlossomedRose Meant only to be helpful btw, not insulting in any way, just so you know.

@BlossomedRose Mostly due to the lighting, I can see you did shade it a little bit, but the light still seems to be somewhat uniform throughout the entire image, that is my take on the flatness, it also looks nice if you vary the line weight a bit more on the characters you choose, it adds "life" to the art. Since there is very little "texturing" in anime/manga the artist relies heavily on really hard edged lighting to nullify that flat look. The blended look you use is more for painting.

Thanks for posting. This helped me understand photoshop brushes a little bit more. I still dont really understand it fully though.
