The core of this “thick-painting cute” model lies in using highly expressive lighting to sculpt the character's skin texture. It abandons the flat color blocks typical of traditional chibi styles, instead pursuing an oil-painting-like richness and depth. Light is no longer a mere accent but the protagonist shaping volume: it softly flows across the character's rounded cheeks, using subtle warm and cool tones (like delicate blues or purples in shadows) to create depth, making the character appear “soft and plump” with elasticity. For skin texture, the model focuses on simulating a unique quality between “cream” and “porcelain”—skin glows with a warm, velvety sheen under highlights rather than harsh reflections, while subtly revealing a faint blush beneath, creating a healthy, translucent, and seemingly delicate aesthetic.
