Yeah, so I seem to have this problem with anything I submit, and I don't know how to fix it ;-;

- Uhhh, no idea if I'm allowed to ping this outside of the thread and without format, but I just need help with the item please :'(

I can see that the inside doesn't have much or any black lines, that is the sticker effect. I think the plastic note is from the high-contrast and very stiff coloring. It falls in line with cel-shading and isn't bad ! But don't be afraid to add some texture lines, like the floating lotus flowers, to really make it pop: Notice that middle, bottom petal and how it's colored. The shading follows the curve in the center, with the highlight being on one side and the base on the other, giving it a rounded look.

... I hope I make sense.

Oh ok! So unlike the overlay, the item absolutely has to have black lineart for everything?

Made perfect sense! Thank you for the explanation & suggestion :*

For the most part, yes ! Soooome things it can be a little more flexible. But it really depends and depends on how it's done. No problem ! I hope it helps and the next one is an approval ! ❤️

Okie~ thank you for your help lovely :*

Pretty sure someone told me about this lineart on the item thing before, but I've been out of the CW game for like...at least a few months, and forgot how to subeta :3

Me too, me too! Excited to get this on site :D

you can definitely ping on the help thread, that's why it was created (: It keeps all the requests in one place rather than making different threads!

I see has replied already x3 The only thing I'd perhaps add is that you added highlights all around - our right side should be darker due to being 'in the shadows'!

Okie, will post there from now on! Just wasn't sure because like...no one posted yet lol

Ahh ok, thanks for the advice ^-^
