A caramel apple was one of my first designs I did when I started Kimchi Kawaii. Back then, the little shading and shine I did was 'advanced' for me in Illustrator, LOL!

Improved apple:

Thank you! I'm very happy with the new one. I think I'm going to put the old in the corner of shame, lol!

The old work should never be a shame! You should be proud of seeing how you've improved your old work.

I'd probably add shading and lighting like that to my work, but I'm afraid I'd add too much, so I just stick to basic shadowing. Not that it's much of a problem, since I rarely draw nowadays, though I'd like to get back to it so I can get better. Any tutorials you'd recommend?

That's the beauty of digital art though! You can add it (maybe in a separate layer if you aren't sure) and then go back and delete it easily if you don't like it. I actually used to have the problem of not having enough contrast in my shading. My art teachers told me I had to stop being scared of putting darker tones when needed (well, they didn't say 'scared', but I think that's what they were getting at). I was feeling like my digital stuff was getting stale and this got me back in the groove again. I actually do all mine through trial and error, so don't really have any tutorials to recommend. I'm sure there are tons on here though.

Thanks! I was feeling like I had kinda plateaued and was feeling pretty stale about my stuff. Doing this one got me all inspired again.

WOW not that the 2009 version wasn't great but this one is really cool! Love the view, shadow and highlight. I know it's alive since it has a smile on, but I want to eat it :(
