Second pass

Hard light. I had some more time to work on this one. I’m happier with it. I think was too soft before.

@burvantill you darks look great

[TessaW]

@burvantill The darks look good to me too.. What cute characters!

[jdubz]

Thanks for coordinating these Braden! Here's a little badger character that I worked on incorporating direct sunlight into.

@jdubz This is super cute. I’m a sucker for an animal in a backpack
I like the dappled shadows as well.

@jdubz that character is super cute!

Really tryin' to have bright washed out light and darker shadows. I think doing a piece with a bit of context tomorrow or sunday will help

[carlianne]

omg I'm so behind

[braden H]

@carlianne Don't think of it that way We all do what we can when we can.

More spheres

This is a source for photographers, but it's got some great reference for types of light and some nice hard rules for what to expect from certain lighting situations

Week five is up!

I'm starting to flag a little on this which means it's time to buckle down and work even harder at it!

@Braden-Hallett You can do it! Switch up your subject matter for the lighting situations. Maybe that will help it be more interesting for you. You have such great little characters, I’d pick one of those and use it for all the light practice.
Disclaimer: I really just want to see you light one of your characters instead of a ball

I figured I'd go simple and start with a sphere. Here is an attempt at blue sphere in hard light. I tried to blow out the light area and darken the shadows. Might still be too blue. Some edges are a bit wonky but I need to move on to another lighting situation and trying to limit time and maximize learning!
