Hey everyone and welcome to another Taco's Tuts!
This time I will explain how I shade torso's on my skins in 4 easy steps.

Step 1:

This is the torso, as you can see I've already made a colour pallette to shade.
I've changed the colour by 4 everytime and the darkness (or whatever you call it) by 5.

Step 2:

This is the basic shading, just done with one shade, you can see the stomach, detailed back, and nipples (hurr hurr).
The sides of the body should be dark because the light wouldn't reach that in real life.

Step 3:

Here you can see that I've darkened the shading, starting to look good huh?

Step 4:

This is the final step, as you can see I've added light shading aswell, it isn't very precise but that's the way I like it.

This time I unfortunately haven't made several shaded torso's because there aren't too much different styles, they are all sort of similar.
I hope you've enjoyed this and I hope it helped, of course don't forget to leave me a diamond and maybe a comment on what my next tutorial should be :D

Thanks, you included the 'back' of the skin, which I needed, my current back method which I released on my most recent skin, isn't fitting my liking to much, ill give this a go, thanks Taco.

I never do fingers, only thumbs, which is always the same, extra dark and just 3 pixels like I do on all my skins :D
