Process
- Begin by making any adjustments to values that you feel may be necessary.
- This might include darkening/evening the background or punching out the darkest shadows a bit further.
- You can also add more fur divisions to enhance the sense of texture.
- Finally, try to ensure that you have captured the underlying structure of the cat’s head by looking for halftones around the eyes and snout.
