"If you're a beginner looking to improve your shading skills but don't know where to start, then you've come to the right place.
In this post, I will teach you the entire shading process step-by-step, in a simple and straightforward manner, Without using any technical words.
Once you have learned this method, you will be able to shade anything by following the same principles, as the basic foundations for shading are the same for all objects.
And I've also included some video tutorials to make it even easier to understand, even if you're just starting out. you can easily understand it.
Note – All steps are relatable to each other. So don't skip any of them.
Let's get started…
PENCIL – There are a variety of pencil grades available based on their level of darkness or lightness, but as a beginner, don't let the variety overwhelm you.
Begin by using just one pencil, and I recommend starting with a 2B grade from any brand. Because it's really good for creating both light and dark shading at a certain level.
Don't worry if you're hearing these words for the first time scared, they're not as difficult to understand as they may seem.
The reason I included this because it's really important to understand before beginning the shading process.
Let me explain in-depth…
When light strikes an object, it creates two main zones, Light & Shadow. like this
Upon close observation, you will notice variations in the light and shadow areas. Some parts may appear darker, while others may appear lighter.
as u can see this images here
photo........... jismai varience toons dikh rhi ho
These variations of light and shadow are what we refer to as values (tones)
And based on the photo you choose, there can be many different tones. However, you don't need more than five tones to make your drawing look realistic.
In fact, you can achieve a realistic effect using just five tones.
here you can see the 5 tone value scale
How to make a value scale
Stage- 2) Darker the Noticeable areas
Stage- 3) Soften the Edges
Stage- 4) Shade Lighter Part
