This is purely an experiment with the dodge and burn tools in Photoshop in relation to anime/cartoon shading on fleshtones and hair.

I’d really like some comments as to how I can improve this piece (not the actual drawing, that I’m happy with, I just need some comments on the shading/gloss on the hair and the skin shadows).

Hold back slightly as this is my first real drawing :crying:

Thanks in advance :pir:
