see it was gonna be such a nice design too but the younger me fucks everything up game over
Yeah you really put yourself into a hard situation with this character haha, but it’s not impossible!
The thing about his hood is that it’s always gonna create a harsh light source on his scarf, and a reflection on his armor. Thats all there’s gonna be if he looks forward. Like you’ve done here. You don’t have too much to worry about on that front.
The light source from the sun will also be harsh,from behind, but because the clouds are below him, it doesn’t create the soft atmosphere that lighting usually has as standard.
I’d make an example post if you want me to elaborate on this further/ want any help. I know your pain!! Hope this helps :]
Oh hey, you would? That would actually really help me out a lot! I was having a shitload of trouble with this last night ):

(fucking tumblr not working) first message: I think the front of him should be darker, contrasting with the lighting of the sun and light hood. Like in photos where one is standing in front of a window and everything is black.
