Form lighting, PDF Guide.

Update: I've decided to make this product free/pay what you want. In the end I don't have the following to make this a product that is profitable over time, and I would much rather that the information is out there for people to consume and use. If you like it, please share it on your social media for others to find!

Painting form light requires a specific set of information, and finding all the ingredients to paint realistically is a difficult task. In this guide, I present many ideas to simplify lighting logic and make painting intuitive, with a focus on exercises that are done in digital painting programs.

This is a 24 pg guide to painting values, covering the basics to more advanced concepts.

Concepts covered:

*Planes *The Anatomy of Light *Carving form with value *Form Rules *Simplifying lighting logic. (1, 2 & 3 axis lighting) *Point lights & Inverse Square Law *Qualities of Light *Painting form textures *Ambient Occlusion *Light Bounce *Value Compression *Soft vs Hard Brushes

Included are a full set of form challenges and studies designed to push your lighting to the next level. An included zip folder provides reference or images required for the exercises.

Exercises and studies:

*Carving Form and Texture Emulation *Subdividing Forms *Wireframe Colouring *Wireframe Tracing

This document is also going to be a living document, that is revised to improve the content quality whenever it shows up, based on user feedback.
