Anonymous asked: What do you use to create shadows? Do you use the pen tool or the brush or simple drop shadow? Your shadows look soft and realistic, I like it! =]

Thanks!

I use (drum roll please) the trackpad! I just select a soft brush and have at it manually. It’s tedious (especially since I prefer to do so without a tablet) but I’m very picky about details (I hate the drop shadow filter) so I guess it works out for me. :)
