notes! ref image 1: (from pininterest) - uhhh areas farther away from camea are darker; lighting seems to be coming from above. - shading / light seems to be a yellowy green, although not very good lightning imao - back leg is slightly bent - arms behind back - bent forward ref image 2: (from a medium article lol) - golden hour lighting - hard shadows under chin/behind head and bottom of hair - soft shadows on face and shoulder - could use multiply and red/purple shadows for shading and orange add lighting for lighting shading/anatomy thing: (using ref image 1) - note that i used the first image for shading help and the second for the anatomy, although I deleted the bg image for the second image because it was hard to see : ) - - - - - credits in comments because bad word detector hates me
