Wow, great work!

Thanks.

Thanks!

I've toyed with the idea, but I have trouble formalizing my technique. I learned to shade through trial and error, so a lot of my pieces have messy, costly techniques that can probably be done a lot better.

has just started a pretty awesome set of tutorials on shading vectors that you can find here [link] (with a follow-up here [link]). I highly recommend it. I may have been shading ponies for a while, but I still learned some neat tricks to make things easier and more efficient.
