- Lowering skin contrast and building it back up helps integrate glowing elements into character illustrations.
- Using reddish undertones prevents dark skin tones from looking greenish.
- Relying on highlights and bounced environmental light is more effective than shadows for defining dark skin forms.
- Balancing organic and inorganic curve shapes improves character design harmony.
- Establishing clear focal points in abstract pieces helps avoid overly centered or static compositions.
