What it concludes
- Copying and pasting overalls onto a new layer and color-adjusting them is an easy way to build up lighting without redoing textures.
- The teeth color should not be an unrelated white tone, but rather the general highlight color of the skin.
- Making deeper ambient shadows in the hair and adding highlights around the face draws viewer attention to the focal point.
- Squint testing an image helps identify if colors are too high-key and lack contrast in the background.
- Selecting out the background and pushing it back into bluish tones helps balance bright values in a scene.
- Finding areas of density and rest in clothing folds prevents clothing textures from looking too evenly dense and overwhelming.
