A band wagon that demanded jumping on.  Pictured here is Tempest in her ship cabin creating some manner of root beer float/ice cream sundae, using her fizzling magic to give it a special kick.

The good news: I can finally use lighting to make things look like they have dimension and depth.

The bad news: My gosh is it messy though! The focus is all over the place!

The better I get, the more I see the flaws in my art.  

That said, if someone who actually knows how to handle shading and light wants to tell me exactly what I need to do to get better, I’m all ears.
