    em... technique? no special technique really. pretty standard way of drawing and painting really...
    i do seperate my shadow and lighting layers. thats about it.

    i can show u guys the steps here.
    step1: sketch and clean up your drawing.
    step2: do a flat base color first, after than do some light shadings. for this is just a simple light down from the top.
    then i add a grey background in another layer. put in at the bottom.
    step3: darken the shadow area with multiply layer, use a light grey color.
    step4: brighten up the light area with overlay layer
    *important*
    remember to seperate each of em in different layers. many novice like to just do everything in one layer.
    but u must practice and get used to seperating the layers. this will greatly ease your work when u need to change something. so thats. color, bg, lighting and shadows all in seperate layers. :D
