its very similar to the way you color normally. it looks more like soft shading with blurred edges. the smudge tool is not something you should rely too much on when soft shading. use the brush and play with opacity and flow settings, thats the most common technique. smudging can be ok, but should be kept at a minimum as it tends to look tacky.

read tutorials, pay strict attention to light source and human anatomy. thats really all i can tell you at this point.

Just use normal brush and play with opacity and flow settings. You don't need a tablet. It helps alot, but it's not actually necessary.

O.O
Should I used brush with hardness 100 % or 0 %

i use the default hard round brush most of the time, but i change my opacity and flow settings frequently.

you dont need a tablet, but its easier to use. i used to soft shade with the touch pad on my laptop... T_T

It looks pretty good!

As Lee pointed out, it's easy to mess up the anatomy, and to my horror, the texture as well. But you got a really good start. Keep up the good work!!

Everyone basically voiced my opinions. But, even though you don't NEED a tablet, if you really want to get serious about soft shading you should invest some money into one.
