Just gonna share my first two I ever made, and see if anyone's got any useful tips for me.
Made these in Photoshop. As you can probably see right away, I tried to do shading and highlights on this one with a paintbrush. I'll probably redo it eventually but I kind of like seeing my first one ever having some obvious errors. I ended up doing it that way because I accidentally connected a line I didn't mean to connect for the shading. It's only been a week but I can't even remember why I didn't just fill the highlight sections with white. I know I used the pen selection as a sort of guide there.
Most of the stuff I've seen from my Googling recommends using Illustrator for these, but I didn't want to learn a whole new program so I just did this with Photoshop since I'm already pretty comfortable with it. What are the advantages to doing this with Illustrator over Photoshop?
I'll detail my process in the next post.
