There were some shading techniques I've never considered as shading techniques like 'squibbling' and 'blending' but all in all this was really healpful

One video and youre better than all my art teachers.

[mojtabarafizadah]

I can swear you are the best teacher I ever had watching your videos changed my artwork and made it a lot better

[kanduyog]

my classmate actually like to draw using blending or smudging as we call it and it looks really good and realistic and kinda adds depth to your drawings. nice tutorial by the way!

Please make a video only of the "Circulisem" .

[tkgcreations]

I draw but have never shaded before, but have recently gave it a go, thank you for your help.

Great video Chris, will really help and I'm glad you did it. Keep up the good work and interesting voiceovers!

[BobbieDeming]

Great video, nice to see the different techniques: I shall experiment with several of them.

[AmieReva]

Thank you so much for posting this, I'll definitly try it out ^^

[rachelmagnusson]

This is wonderfully clear, instructive, and helpful.

Thank you! I'm working on a piece and I'm so afraid to ruin it with shading, so this guide had been super helpful!!

[camofirefly]

Hey Chris! Brilliant video, but i was wandering weather or not you could do a short tutorial on paper! I know that sounds strange  but things like thickness, texture and even the material itself. Thank you, and keep up the great work.

Hey Chris, thank you sooo much for all the tips.

[Ptownblazer]

Excellent Video! Huge help. Your a talented artist!

I think that this is by far one of the most useful videos on your channel and that it'll help many people improving their shading :D
Could you try to draw any of the other suggestions without more than two colors (black and white)? This should be seen as a challenge and it'll look pretty cool :)
Keep it up 👍

[skatinglilfe]

How do you get it to be pitch black ? I cant go nearly that dark.

Ps keep up the good work man you're awsome <3
