Kay, so I finally broke down and decided to try my hand at tool shading. ._.

Well, I've been working on a base I plan to use on my future avatar site. Unicorngirl made the lineart for me a while ago, but I didn't really get a response. It was totally unshaded when I saw it, and I... didn't see potential. XD

Well, I got bored and shaded it. Here's what I've got so far:



I, personally, really like it. I think it's pretty decent for my first time tool shading.

I'm hoping you can all give me some C+C/CC and help it get better. Thankoo! 8D

Oh, and I know the hips are wider than the chest (it's anatomically incorrect, but I like it that way. :P)

I have a question to ask, cuz dollers fascinate me to no end with their rationale for things. This helps me be a better if not more understanding person when dealing with doll people.
Why blend and blur all but the outline. All the jaggyness remains and now its not a CG doll nor a PA doll. Its like a limbo doll????

I did it for this reason:

Dolls shouldn't have alpha-transparent particles around the outside. It makes it very difficult to pixel things on it, because you'd have to compensate for all those extra pixels.


Plus, I think it looks better this way. Volumetrics is evil. XD

Unfortunately, no. D:

It's going to be put to use for an avatar site. I'm 99.9% sure it'll go towards mine, but if something happens and I can't make it, I'll just store it until another site needs it. :3
