Im practicing my digital coloring on a piece done by Deamond89 (Dviantart).

And I need a little help with my light sources on this. I have two 9moon in background, and halo near forground)
Im kind of confused as to what to do with the crossing color of the moons light and the halos, and how far each would extend. I figure the halos light will extend a bit furhture on the character, as it is closer and right over the top, and the moon will brush the edges of the character. Also im confused as to how far down the moons light will extend on the body past the shoulders. What part would be tipped in the light? Im not sure if any would past the shoulders, because the light source is far in the background, but their might be some ambient light?
Any help is much appreciated. And if you need any additional information, I can provide.
Sorry for so many questions XD

since the halo directly light up her head, it can just be a nice soft gradient going down... don't ignore the shadows though.

the yellow moon is a backlight so the highlights are supposed to be harsh just like the way u made it. smile
