Dim lighting with colored pencils I asked a similar question to this recently (Shading dark scenes) but this time I want to know how I can get a colored pencil drawing to look very shadowy and dark.

How do I color the picture where it looks like the figure is somewhere with very dim lighting? (For example, in a room with only a few candles lit.)

I find this next to impossible, but really want to know how to pull it off because it's an effect I always find myself wanting in particular drawings.
If the light is coming from a candle, or group of candles, you're going to have very dramatic chiaroscuro lighting.

Shadows should be very black, with not a lot of grey tones.  Keep in mind that only the elements very close to the candles are going to be visible.  Also, candles have yellow light, so basically all colors are a shade of yellow or orange.  Blues and purples will be just about black.
