Asked for help
maybe I missed something, but I don’t understand why is the shadow casting here, if the light comes straight from the top.

I remember asking myself the same question. It is possible if you have a recess

It wouldn't be! But pure top light is rarely useful, it looks unnatural. See Hawaii at high noon:

I always imagine the light is a bit off to one side or coming from behind so that I can add cast shadows that explain the form. Cast shadows have more wiggle room than form shadows- they should be edited and invented to do a job instead of being confusingly accurate. See this clip from Stan at about 5min 50sec:

Hello Community!
I really like the effect of alcohol markers.
I'd like to learn from experts.
Do you know any valuable course I could follow online?
(maybe a suggestion for Proko)
