What's in Premium?

In this premium critique session, I review student assignments to help you fix common grayscale painting mistakes. When figures look flat or lighting feels confusing, it usually comes down to value control. I show you how to clearly separate your lights from your shadows and keep your mid-tones in check. You will learn practical digital techniques, like using layers and blending modes, to quickly adjust contrast and establish strong shadow patterns. We also cover how to handle different local values, like skin versus fabric, and why you need to avoid double rim lights. These adjustments will help you group your values to make your characters feel truly three-dimensional.
