Do you guys remember the awesome tool Virtual Lighting Studio?
It seems that it’s out of beta now, and they have not only added a female model with long hair, but also added a POC!“VLS” is a very very very good resource, despite the slightly oddly designed faces, when it comes to how light falls on the face. You can add several light sources, add ambient light, add colored light, move the position of the “lamp” and other nice features.
I especially like that they added a POC model, mostly because there’s so little art-related resources when it comes to different skin color (color-palettes doesn’t count). And considering the fear of unintentional white-washing, this tool will come in handy.
Although I was hoping for another model with even darker skin color, but I guess this is good enough for now. The face looks a bit weird… but I must say the white guy is much more creepy-looking lol.
