I describe a lot of that here! I tend to go by what hue looks darker rather than what shade looks darker, so in the case of yellow I generally go for orange, or occasionally green.
It’s just habit and what I think looks nice really! I’ve favoured shading with hues since around 2008/09 so it’s just how I work.

I’m sorry Sepia…you have to wear your fancy outfit alone…I think he’d prefer that anyway ^^’
gotta do some group stuff though. Maybe with their full outfits or something . ___ .

Anonymous: I see that your commission rates vary for certain things like the non-animated cards which are $30 to $50, what determines the difference in price? If I wanted two cards of OCs that were non-animated how much would that cost? (sorry if it's a dumb question but i couldn't find the answer anywhere on your blog)
The price varies based on complexity of character, background etc. and with how much ease I can draw it. So for example if you wanted something Steven Universe related, it would most likely be on the lower end. Whereas several characters of high detail, an unfamiliar subject matter and a complex background would be at the higher end.
Another factor is the amount of guidance you give me, if you just say you want a picture then it would cost more than if you provide me with ideas or sketches of what you want (things like brief character info too).
I’m quite happy to give you a quote if you send me an email at chicinlicin@gmail.com with references/ideas and such :) don’t feel obliged to go through with the commission if you don’t want to!
And it’s not dumb at all! I’ve been meaning to update my prices and overall listing, I’ll make sure to add this to the FAQ too!

Anonymous: Could you do more Fat Princess? It looked very nice!
Thanks! and probably not…I haven’t played Fat Princess, the one drawing I have was for a request thing I did at the time ^^’ closest I’ve got is playing as her in PS All-Stars.

Anonymous: May I ask what your theme is on this blog or the link to it? I keep seeing similar themes to this one but can't find the code for them...
My theme is just the default theme, Redux! :) I’ve got a tiny bit of html so I can have buttons on the side, and a custom tiled background…unless the default theme has changed or something :|

Anonymous: Is there any software like TVpaint that is free or is a one time buy thing at a low price ?
Hmm, yeah that’s tricky. Flash, TVPaint and ToonBoom are the major programs I can think of, all of which are a bit pricey.
Only alternative I can think of is Ulead GIF Animator, which is the first animation program I used. I think any version of Photoshop over 7.0 has the timeline function as well which you may be able to find somewhere. Or an old version of Flash.
Each has their ups and downs, Photoshop has better drawing but needs each frame as a layer, and Ulead has very bad drawing tools but a timeline somewhere in between that of Photoshop and Flash…if I’m remembering it right…haven’t used it in quite some time ^^’

Anonymous: How do you know what color to use when your shading Like if you have yellow what kind of darker yellow or other color do you use to show the shaded area
