Ok, few people wanted to know how I shaded my drawings.
Here's how......

Before I begin... it would kind of help if you had a shader (a tightly rolled up piece of paper in the shape of a pencil). You can find shaders in almost any craft store. Most of the time, you can get the same effects with just using color coats besides using a shader. I'll get on that later.

There's 3 types of shading: Normal, Darken life, and Over shading.
Normal: Shades baised on the position of the light. Ever looked at your shadow? The side of you that is the farthest away from the sun is always in shadow. This is the narmal point of shade.

Over Shading: This is a type of shading that doesn't use the sun for shadows. Over shading is made with pencils with darken lines that is rubbed in a curved direction over and over. This causes to make black and white pics to have a dark look on them. It shows that the clothes, or whatever is darker than white or blonde.

Luigi is an example of Normal and Over shading. Note the dark shading on his hair and mustash. this shows that it could be ether brown or black (depending on how dark you shade.)

Darken Life: Look up at the pic of Harmony (the ghost). This style is used in many ways. Darken Life gives the pic an evil, or a gastly look to them. Lightly pencil under the eyes, one side of the forhead, top of hair, and under the neck then rub till the pencil blends. The same effect is applied to the clothes. If you want a darker look, just pencil a little harder till you get the look you want.

Carefull!!! You don't want to darken too much. Too much will make you pic look unrealistic and crappy.

Now for color shading. Just color lightly first, then add a darker color that's in the same color familly in the same style of Over Shading. This will give you a 3-D effect.

Well, that's that...If yah need more help, just ask.^^
