hello! Your art is very cool, and I'm wondering how you do your lighting on characters? It looks very nice

oh wow!! ty so much for the kind words☺️☺️

my lighting style took a long time for me to discover and i'm pretty happy with how it's turned out so here's a mini tutorial:

i use a multiply clipping mask of dark red to apply shadow

then, i choose a light source and erase accordingly. i then alpha lock the lineart and apply white along the lit edge.

finally, i use the fill bucket to grab the white bits, use blur and halftone effects, and set the layer to overlay to achieve that glowy effect

i love teaching, so thanks for the ask!

What if 🤔🤔🤔 Mind and Apollo Mermaid/siren? 🤔🤔🤔

To go with the 2oul mermaid?

Just.

Don't think about the logistics of automatons being sea-creatures

-💜🐀

Strayed away from sirens because I thought of Anglerfish…

They’re going to single-handedly solve pollution my keepersing everything Or make it worse when water inevitably gets inside and makes them a conductive nightmare

RB GAME!!!

your username is now ur ability

Describe it in any way that you'd use it or what it would do

Like mine is rotting in red, so my ability should probably be able to cause any being to decay by infecting their blood or smth
