this image shows a tutorial on how to render shadows in character design. two drawings of a figure with raised arm are shown, side by side. the left image illustrates an unappealing rendering of shadows, with multiple small, disjoint, and weak shapes. the right image illustrates a more appealing rendering of shadows, with bold, large shapes, reflective light, texture, and contact shadows. text annotations highlight the differences between the two approaches and provide tips for improving shadow rendering.
