If I may ask, when it comes to the shading on your artworks what would you say is the easiest part of shading and what is the hardest? (Also like the colored line art on some of them!)

The easiest part is to color them.
I used to shade with different colors depending on which area of ​​the character I was shading.
I later decided to use just a single color for each area to speed up the process.

The hardest part is definitely the area I want to shade.
Depending on how you want to use the lighting, the way you shade changes.
This is a painful process if you are unfamiliar with lighting.
