Art Tip: Shiny Objects (Patreon)

Hi Everyone,

Happy Art Tip Tuesday! Here's some notes on painting shiny objects.

I think the important thing about shiny objects is to keep the edges hard and keep the values in high contrast. The more you push those, the shinier you can make the object look.

Brining in colors from the background or surrounding objects can help sell the effect too. It's something I do in my own drawings a lot.

As always, feel free to ask questions or suggest new art tips.

Thanks!
