So I decided to follow your channel, and also bookmark Videos that had very useful information. I had to stop making the bookmarks, because every video is a real treasure now, and my list became unmanageable. so I just made a mental note: all the answers you need, are on the piximperfect channel XD.

    Also a quick tip. If you have the move tool selected, you can adjust opacity with the numbers bar. 1 = 10%, 2 = 20% and so on. Clicking 1 and 2 quickly after each other is 12%.
    If you want to adjust the fill, hold shift and click a number.
    If the brush is selected, the it applies to opacity and fill for the brush.
    Also 0 = 100%

I have a brain injury so I need moderately-paced, detailed instruction, and that's what you provide. May I ask kindly, Mr. Dinda, where is the best place to request an idea for a topic you might help with? I'd like some help with putting new hair on someone, especially a girl, where you might want to put new long hair, over short or medium length. Guys with short hair are pretty easy in comparison.
    I can even give an extra donation on Patreon for you, to do it. Thank you. I watch you for at least a couple hours or more, every day! :-)

    P.S. I would personally remove that shadow that you put on with a big soft brush on the "Add little darkness from the shadows" from the lightened areas on her feet cause there's no way they could have been darkened by a shadow reflex. Other than that - perfect!

    As a digital artist. We call it ambient occlusion.
    Since in some cases there are many light sources we have lights in the shadows.
    Which are only the lights of the ambient ofc (the main light souce is creating the shadow so it cant be in it)
    What happens in contact is that we create a small pocket like areas which lights goes in bounces and bounces and cant find its way out into our eyes.
    Therefor the lost light will not give us any information from those pocket.
    And thats why theyre so dark
    (Ambient occlusion. Because ambient is not included there. Making it pure shadow)
