Looks like I'll have to experiment with it then. D: Someone on DA told me to be more confident and darken those shadows to bring out the picture more. I said I'm scared. xD
I don't really remember what flow is for, but yeah if you take a dark color on top of a lighter color, having a lower opacity helps to get the right amount of darkness for lack of a better word lol
You know that someone truly cares when they brick you like that. -AZ
Well the best idea I could come up with is that the person that did the boobs picture, they did a combination of the pen tool, outlining the shadows and the brush(low opacity and soft brush) to blend it in and do some shading like that. I'm not 100% on that though. But if you have illustrator thats mainly for doing all pen tool type of stuff, and very high quality pictures. But get ahang of what you want in photoshop first lol. imo xD

Well it's thanks to you, really. I got super excited when I got your message for some reason and this is what's happening. So thanks for the extra push.
A while back I did dive into Photoshop for a little bit but my computer at the time wasn't that great at handling it. (It took 5 minutes for the program to open as compared to this computer that makes it look like a pop up ad.) lol So yeah, I have time and dedication to put to use. The dodge and burn tools are great but those are the ones I want to stay away from because they aren't going to give me the look I'm initially going for. I want to get to a skill level where I can make stuff like this:
._. I honestly dont know what else to help you with lmao, You cought on fast and ...wow lol!
You know what its time for? Shading, highlights, and backgrounds :D
..Or keep getting the hang of things! xD
But I'm really happy your back and updating again!

Yeah I don't think I'm good enough to be program-hopping and stuff. If I do decide to get another though, it may be SAI.
Changing the opacity of the brush really makes that big a difference when shading? And what's flow used for? D:

Also, I was never good at shading with the colors so I sometimes used that lol. and then with my photoshop work I use those tools all the time!

So yeah. You see the look I'm going for? A more smooth clean touch. Know how to do any of that? D:
