NeverHill In reply to ??? [2012-10-31 16:39:57 +0000 UTC]

This is all nice, but tell me... Why even though I know all those things I still draw shadows that make my characters looks as flat as a plank?

N'aww, I don't think your characters look plank at all XD
But it's normal to feel like that about our own art XD I feel the same about mine, too :'D
