Photoshop Anime Soft Shading Tutorial

Second tut~ It follows on from my line art tut and it shows how to quickly give your picture a really quick and sweet soft shading look. The same can be done for adding highlights too if you wanted.

Any questions note me~

I use Photoshop CS4 btw, works with most art programs tho.

Uhm, I'm pretty new to shading so uhm could you maybe give me a few tips on lighting?That's the one main thing I'm having trouble on. If you cuold help i was be most happy~~ ^^

Wonderful tutorial by the way! ^^

You're voice is so cute~

[oOShaeOo]

@shinjusama64 Sorry for the late reply! If you still want some help I'll be glad to do a tut or two for it!

>w< Thank you so much!

[shinjusama64]

@oOShaeOo Yes!~ I need help~!

The one main thing is lighting. Like where it shines and how shadows and shading are created.

Does that help? o3o

@shinjusama64 Okaydokey! I'll try and make a tut on it tomorrow! X3 My mic's kinda broke and makes this weird "squuinksquiinkcracklecrackle" noise every now and then but I'll try and use subtitles if it gets too loud! X3

@oOShaeOo Hehe, on a serious note though, yeah this guide definitely helped me out. I got a good deal on a refurbished Wacom fun pen and touch tablet so I've been practicing with it trying to get better.

Have you thought about doing any more tutorials? The quirkyness of em' makes it more interesting than some of those monotone photoshop tutors.

lol I like how you just smash the delete button in this tutorial. Good job though

@oOShaeOo thank you~! ^^
