Then I did a gradient that used the original lip colour and a darker version of the same colour (only adjust the 'k' or black bar if you're using CMYK). Lay the lip portions over the original lips and just adjust the angle and the gradient positions until the seam (or join) disappears.
Hope thats useful.  |
hahahah awesome illustration of your tips dear dobster!
I do ocasionally use the same eyelid trick as you because I like the cartoony effect a lot. However the shadow effect I wanted to add to her eyelid is a special trick I found in an Illustrator book at school. I'll pick it up next week, add the shadow and show it to you
