Post subject: | Overhang shading question |
So i've tried work on shading the wing propellers of the Olympic class liners and this is my first attempt: ![]() This is the method i use to shade that part of the drawing. ![]() I used this same strategy on the overhang of the A deck promenade too. Now I know there is a guide to overhang shading but I'm not sure if I'm doing it right or how to shade that particular shape. One of my concerns is a matter regarding the depth of the shadow so that the wing propellers don't give of the impression or either being too far extended or too close to the hull. I don't think the guide instructed the shading of a structure of that nature. second concern i have is if i need to add the shadow of the actual propellers as well. |

This is the best that i could do and I'm sure it's wrong because i used the 45 degree shading rule The shadow follows the assumption that the light source is angled at 45 degrees, ![]() not to mention that's how it's cast in many photo's i've seen of Olympic's propellers. ![]() ![]() ![]() The actual overhang shadow cast by the wing propellers is straight down and the propeller blades cast a seperate shadow against the hull, Is there any sort of rule that i need to follow? because I'm sure that this is nor how they would have casted such a shadow in real life. If anyone has any idea on how it should properly be done, please come forward to help. just be sure to provide visual examples since I can better comprehend any advice in that format. something that reflects it's irl shading as well as staying consistent with the shading of the rest of the hull. |

you can use that way of doing shading, but move the shades a little more aft, since the light source aren't directly from above, but from above-front |

question here is how far aft and what angle is the light suppose to be casting such shadows from?Another problem i have is what the propeller's shadow would look like as the blades are twisted. |

any idea on what angle the light is supposed to be shining from?

that is something you decide for your self.... I usually use 45 degree |

I have also seen some unfinished renders of 35 models of Titanic that show similar shading under the wing propeller: ![]() ![]() ![]() |
