Thanks Artloader, yeah you can really lose track of time.

So I was spending some time looking at my old posts and realized there was a common flaw with all of them. The worse thing about it was that it was actually pointed out to me by a couple of different users, but I completely misinterpreted what they were saying for something else (holy shit I must be dense). I look at my latest pieces and they suffer from the same problem....

It's actually mind-boggling to me that it took me two years to realize this, even after people SPECIFICALLY pointed it out to me. I guess some people are just slow like that (me) lol.

Anyways, the flaw was that I never had deep saturated shadows and dark areas. In fact they were the exact opposite, dull and grey. This meant my color temperatures were always messed up because my lights were also generally desaturated. Gosh...it's pervasive in almost every single work of mine

So...to celebrate me learning something new, here's a 4-5 hour study that I'm too lazy to finish and then a 1-2 hour one that I couldn't find the reference for again so yeah..
