recently i've had a lot more people compliment/ask about shading process, which i've been really happy about because shading/post-lighting is my favorite part of the drawing process!! this isn't a full in-depth tutorial, but i wanted to make an overview of how i do drawings, especially since it's become more complex recently. it's influenced partly by experiments i've done, and partly through studies of cooler better artists.
feel free to ask about any of the steps! i had to rush over a lot of details to make it all fit into 4 images.
