Experimenting With Better shading
Added 2020-04-02 04:18:43 +0000 UTCFor the past two days, I've been tinkering with a couple of ideas for shading on characters, as well as compositing completely in Blender. These are a little janky, but this is my very first attempt at trying something like this, and I think it would help in scenes that require dramatic lighting... not to mention, drawing these shadow layers manually on a frame by frame animation would be literal torture.
Everything you see in these, other than drawing the actual characters, is doable in Blender. I long for the day I can no longer require an editor such as Vegas or AE, and it feels like it's getting close!

Looks so cool

I get mixed feelings about shading in 3D and how damaging it can be to a more traditional look (I don't use any character shading in my project for efficiency reasons), but looks like you work-shopped something that's not just turning a shader on a 3D model and letting it turn out garbage. Very cool tests so far.
