      Another creature WIP for today, similar in body style to the orangish creature recently posted.

          Hey man, good to see you on the 'hub too! That blue guy looks sweet, and the other monsters Try some darker darks and lighter light in areas to really show volume in the forms, they're nice big shapes you have going and I think it could work really well.

          Something to try out - I don't want to claim this is true for every case, but with a warm light, try some cool shadows, and with a saturated light try desaturated shadows, same vice versa as well. Really, what it is is varying your hues a bit more, in the monster pics for example, food for thought anyway^^ Keep it up!

            Hey Alex Thanks! Thanks for calling that out, I'll get it one day I obviously just need to think more about my light source and how it affects the subject. Because I often think my shadows get too dark, but in reality based on the light source they could get quite dark or light, etc. as you pointed out.
