wow. that was extremely helpfull! i always thought that the tools used for highlights like on the lips/eyes/hair etc. were some fancy pen that could only be bought in some other country, but its just a gel pen?? you've made my life soo much easier. hahaha. thanks again for posting this! I LOVE your drawing style btw!
much love!

Mmkay, xD
I just need the money to buy them first. xDDDD <--minor setback, but I have a brilliant plan to drag my parents' wallets into this. 8D
mm, and I think I need to know what sort of paper is good for copics if you have any suggestions....? o0

Atomic-Clover In reply to SardonicAuthor [2008-08-12 04:30:11 +0000 UTC]

hahaha i know all about that plan, it's a good one xDDD

um, regular printer paper works totally fine for me, [link] [link] those two were both done on regular 8.5x11 printer paper, but i do have this totally spiffy, big black sketchbook made by copic with paper made especially for markers. it's thick and uber smooth, and i love it. i bought a really big size tho, so i only use it occasionally, i did these two on it [link] [link]
i dont know if that helps or not, but whatever XD

SardonicAuthor In reply to Atomic-Clover [2008-08-12 15:26:54 +0000 UTC]

It's a genius plan. -nod nod- My mom was quite willing to buy me some prismacolor markes, too. I've been practicing~~~ they really are VERY fun! ^^

Jeez, I love your work.
Thank you for the paper advice-thina-muh-wazzit. xD Ohh, a sketchbook sounds nice. I'll have to get one. ^^ (and since my house has about a bajillion stacks of printer paper i'll probably use a lot of that too. xD )
And it does help, a LOT, actually. Thank you!!! ^^

NinjaSharpie In reply to ??? [2008-08-06 15:27:50 +0000 UTC]

Magical!

I don't use markers for coloring (it is far too much of a drain on my wallet) but looking at your use of colors with markers gave me many insights on how to use some of those techniques in photoshop.

Thanks for the tutorial!

Yeah it made sense I liked seeing how you colour skin. And I`d have never thought of using a gel pen.

Thanks for making this tutorial.

this is absolutely gorgeous, and you explained everything perfectly!!!!! how much did you have to pay for your copics? everywhere i go, they are too expensive!

Atomic-Clover In reply to alsasson [2008-08-06 15:02:01 +0000 UTC]

oh i know, they're so expensive, that's why i only own two XD all the other markers i use are Prismacolor, they're much cheaper, harder to use, but at least they're affordable

hurm, well, i went to Devil's Lake yesterday (it's the highest point in wisconsin, idk why it's called that tho) with my last remaining friends (they're going to Bible school too, only in Colorado, so they leave late like me) and we hiked and swam, and the car ride was 2.5 hours and that was so much fun, we just talked about theology, and opinions, and politics and whatever, it was awesome. i love hanging out with my church friends ^^
and then we had pb&j sandwiches, and yeah.
now im all sore from all the hiking, daaaaah xD

it was really breezy and idk, there were like, NO bugs, it was awesome, and no, wisconsin is so low and flat, that there was, like, no elevation change xD woot for wisconsin and all its coolness but yeah, i dont like camping either, i hate bugs, and dirt, and getting dirty, and sweat, and being grimy UHG. but i LOVE hiking, it's my favourite form of excercize, that and hiking xD

soryuu In reply to alsasson [2008-08-06 06:37:05 +0000 UTC]

They are always too expensive. Get some tria (letraset) or prismacolor markers if you want comparable quality for less cost. I've never heard anything bad about them but some marker purists may disagree.
