Well, I began spriting Kirby like this back in April of last year without much original intention of doing anthing this huge with it, but the idea has evolved into one of my two favorite personal projects.
The light source is defined from the upper left, so depending on the surfaces shape and material, the darker shade was placed in the opposite corner. Shinier surfaces get a more noticable glow near the light, but on some others this is completely absent. All the sprites also have a darker inline around the outline as well, and it's part of the style design.
