STEP 3:

Now for compositing, where the final image comes together. Combine the two renders using the "Add" node, and add a blur effect to the emission render (the black and white one on the image) from before.

Done!

STEP 2:

After setting up the lights, plug your image files into the material node. If satisfied, render the resulting image.

Render an extra image without lighting, showing only the emissive textures, if needed. The second render is important for later...

STEP 1:

After exporting your images from your painting software of choice, open Blender. Put two or more planes in front of each other, the one on top having a transparent image. Have them close enough to leave a shadow, without clipping.

Mostly prehistoric creatures, Monster Hunter or something related.

Usually 2D and sometimes 3D.
Also random fanart now and then!

MH4U was the last we saw of him. At least Shogun Ceanataur is in Rise!
