I did this commission a couple days ago but I'm still not satisfied with the shadows, any tip of how to improve?

Can you send a version without the shadows?

Hello Shia! I think you did pretty good, but something that can make it look better, is about shading different where it comes to soft and hard shadows. For example the hand on the right has like a peek in the bottom-right part. I thing you could soften it because the shadow edge that is not in contact with the thumb muscle line, is on a round surface. This cell shading could be combined with some soft shading and make your style a bit more semi-realistic

This can enlighten a bit what I said maybe
