Been wanting to practice & try improving my texture work, since it feels like a while since I last tried doing some more sophisticated lighting/shading. And friend & fellow artist ValkyriePyra had been in a vampiric mood lately, so I decided to make her the subject of some satin styling-up with that... while also incorporating a shadows test from A-Drays-Mind on Tumblr.
Human skin is still a thing I'm not sure exactly how I wanna shade, but I feel it doesn't look too 'blotchy' here or too much like plastic. What do you guys think? Might be doing some more practice for Sunday the 28th...

Not gonna lie, human skin is something I reaaally struggle with in art... I'm most likely overthinking how to do it, but my brain is never sure if cel-shaded human forms blend too well with airbrushed clothing textures, so I keep looking for examples of how to do it differently.
Art's a learning process, in the end. I'm happy to know it looks natural enough in this example, at least ^^;
