This is great! Something I'm having a little trouble finding is information about hard vs soft shading. Specifically, when you put in more blocked in shape and when you use a shadow that blends into the light area.
Understandable! We recommend the book The Essential Guide to Comic Book Lettering by Nate Piekos. He's a lettering legend you probably know from www.blambot.com He has a bunch of free resources on there and finally out a book. Hope that helps!
Imagine your shape in 3d space and put parallel lines where the light will come from. It should help a little. And draw a lot of drawings with shadows. Don't forget to be brave, sometimes the one who holds us back is not our knowledge about our art, our own self-esteem. Going to an free art class and a teacher telling me to just draw it was the thing for me, it just seemed simpler when he said that. So just draw where you lack and study everyday even if it's for an hour. You will get there. 👍
If you're having trouble with lighting, I'd recommend watching Marco Bucci and James Gurney. They frequently drop some golden nuggets of knowledge throughout their videos. As a last, brute force resource I'd also recommend brushing up on the physics of light itself. Just reviewing the basics once in a while.

Stan never fails to deliver a video. Great intro! Straight to the point introducing the person and what they're doing.
Love Mike Hawthorne. His work got me back into art when I was in highschool. Such a legend
Fantastic advice, thank you Mike!!

Why don't we change Lomis's method or make it more realistic? Please reply quickly 🙏
We're pretty satisfied with Loomis as a base!
That being said, it's not the only technique out there. Try some others!
You look like bestia from Xmen so cool
“how lighting doesn’t tell a story but background and props do”

Am i the only one who think he look like Hank McCoy?
The most frustrating problem for me is knowing where to put the shadows in the first place. Light logic completely eludes me.

We've got a couple videos on exactly that!
