I been drawing some silly stickers recently im really in the summer vibe despite i will be burning alive were i live
Of course this is not complete but i think i will post this and other 2 together when i finish them.
I think im improving with my color works :3
animated a short looping gif based off a music video i like! warnings for some mild gore tho
waga baga bo bo
I drew this in krita experimenting with the different blending modes to make a ray of light coming out of a source. I didn't use any filters or g'mic stuff, I painted it and used blending modes. Any advice on making light look more natural? Appreciate any tips.

Nice!
Some warmup practice.

I've started playing Spider-Man edge of time again and really loved anti-venoms design so i decided to draw him.
Artfight be doin it's usual chugging, but I got this out!

You saw my name and you knew what this post was is going to be about.. yup. Pinhead!
So I was playing air-guitar earlier and singing along some song (probably very) out of tune, but very loud. So self insert right here.

To make better light - in my opinion - is not as much about using about blending modes, but brush opacity mode. Most of the light I do in my works is based on simple opacity value. Even when you want to make light in the dark. Remember that in real world there is no such thing as 0-value dark. Not even black is black as it has some reflection or you wouldn't see it as human. Dark night is not black either it is darkest of blue (or so).
So when you build light coming from a source you should 1st think of what is the environment and how much light your source is giving. :)
Happy light-hunting!
Aside from working on my webcomic, I finished this off recently:

Any advice on how to portray sunlight going through a window such as stained glass window?
Just use an airbrush? Or something else?
This is my most recent thing about fellas with funny faces. Just put a bunch of my stuff on newgrounds after 13 years. Its good to be back.
I am the epic lifeform!

Back on days, when I started off with digital - it was something i really loved to do - paint fake lights on 3D scenes because my abacus at time couldn't render much else besides basic shapes with simple texture.
Now how you tackle that particular room would depend of your software - Like in some programs you may want to use blend mode, but it can be done without it.
I would actually not use classic soft edge 'airbrush', but very low opacity hard round brush - the most basic and classic one. Set opacity of the brush very low that, when you overlap, it also creates kind of subtle blend effect. Think a bit of ... let say watercolors. Where you build up trough very subtle lines most times. Using blend-modes can add a lot to your work, but for it to have true realistic impact the normal-layer light has to already look good and that you can do with low-low-low opacity brush. Learn 1st without blend modes. Light and fire are such of wonderful things to study!
On the example image - 1st you likely should have the glass painted and the floor done (no light effects) , and then make light on a separate layer paying attention to the areas, where light does not get to and keep strict angle of the "god ray" -effect. Later you can add some sort 'paper' material via blend mode overlays to mimic dust particles.
For a god-ray effect work well on a digital work, you also might need use the 'industry standard' move of downscaling which means you work on much larger canvas than you intend to show at end. Downscaling the image often makes light and shadow effect often look better, when lines get slightly blurred.

Your drawing is stiff as a board, unless you intended for that, then you did good. Here's a tip I can remember from sources I've seen on figure drawing, there does NOT exist a single straight bone in the human body. Not even the spine. Always aim for curves or subtle curves. But NEVER straight.

I heavily referenced this
Could use some advice on shading. It's a mess, but I'm still working on it. I at least learned from this vase here that a blending stump will never be a proper substitute for good transition from light to dark and vise versa.
