Render(ing)

In reference to artwork, rendering is subjective. It tends to be the final steps that turn the art from a coloured sketch into a finished piece. What someone’s rendering process consists of largely depends on their style. Though, I believe it tends to be the steps that may come after laying down the flat colours. For example: colouring line art, adding texture, shadows, highlights, etc. Sometimes, the term “rendering process” will be used as an insult in reference to a tiktok video with the same caption. The artwork in the video happened to be a very unique style, so all of tiktok took to making fun of it, hence the “rendering process” insult.
