@NessIllustration @MichaelaH @chrisaakins Hey Gang, thank you all for taking the time to give feedback on this piece, I really appreciate it! I'll play around with some of these ideas and see where it takes the illustration

@Jorge-Valentin Hello and welcome to the forum! This is such an expressive painting. I look forward to seeing more.

Update on this: Renders using Blender. I think I'm done with this now. Like I said before, if anyone else is interested in this technique for lighting flat 2d art with 3d shaders or normal maps in Photoshop I wrote about it on my blog. I'll get on with other art to do with my personal project now.

I have two guinea pigs myself, glad to see them get a little attention! They are so cute when they're eating, which is pretty much all the time. Great expression.

I've just finished this Logan painting, it turned out better than I expected so I'm really happy with the result. I hope to post more stuff really soon, it's my first time actually sharing it.

@jon-anderson thanks for the advice about adding another point of interest. @Eli thank you so much for letting me know of the posting guidelines. It’s a big help.
