Another way of shading is by using the cutout effect in Paint Shop, this gives a softer effect than hand shading

Select the area you want to shade with wand and floodfill with your colour

Go to Selections/Float, then Effects/3D Effects/Cutout
and use the settings below, but changing the colours to the ones you are using. Change the shadow colour to a shade darker than the fill colour

The only setting you need to change is the blur, the smaller/larger the area you are filling, the lower/higher the setting. Play about with the blur until it's to your liking

*Note. You can only do one section at a time with the cutout, don't try to fill more than one area at a time

 

I used the cutout effect on the bathtub, sink and shower in this picture
