Many, many thanks to all! Getting a thumbs up from the experts means a lot. GM, good catch on the tail shading
I'd just like to tell all the newbies and lurkers out there that the members of this site are IMHO some of the most outstanding profilers in the world. But even better, they are willing to share their suggestions and thoughts with everyone to make your profiling efforts more rewarding and FUN.
I used to jump into profile art emphasizing markings and color schemes, then using shadows and highlights as an afterthought. These guys have made me appreciate that shape rendering and lighting are the most important part of profile art. Wish I had their talent.
Keep those profiles coming!
