Description
***PLEASE FULL-VIEW OR DOWNLOAD***EDIT: In Step 25, I forgot to mention that I colored in some shades in her skin with C3. Sorry about that!
I know I don't color with Copics very well yet, but I decided I might as well show you how I do. Ha ha, I should have left the girl's hair pink... it looked better like that, in my opinion. I also forgot to include that I used black Sakura Micron Pigment Liners too! Sorry if the tutorial doesn't help much. I hope it helps and that you enjoy it anyway!
Here is the actual deviation if you'd like to see the finished product!

You can find them on the the official website or on this art website or on eBay. I can't specifically tell you where you can find them in stores because I only know where to get them where I live.

Copic markers look amazing, but their so expensive T-T
I'm planning on getting Neopiko markers ([link] )

I actually have no idea. I've never used them before. I'd like to know myself.

Hmm, yea- i heard they were pretty good, obviously not as good as the Copics, but they should work as a cheap substitute xD (at least for ametures)

You should try them out and tell me what you think of them.

Thanks! I know, i'm so happy- i can finally draw without scanning a picture first
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Ha ha! I still have to scan pictures in because I have trouble drawing directly on the computer (coloring is fine, but drawing on the other hand...)!

Lol -yep, i was practicing drawing on it today, and it is really hard -.-
It probably took me an hour just to do the line art xD I don't think i'll try doing it again that way...

Ha ha, it takes me longer than an hour... and I've had my tablet for a loooonngg time. XD You'll get better at it, though. Don't worry.

Gorgeous, a really nice tutorial, and lovely art. One of the most thorough skin tutorials I've seen. Skin is such a pain to colour!

Aw, thank you very much!! I'm glad that you like it.

Oh yay~~ I always wondered how you colored hair.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Uh, I just randomly draw strokes here and there? 8D; I don't know how I draw hair, actually, so the steps there were kind of vague.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Ha ha, I've always been jealous how sharp the hair you draw looks. XD

Oh, thanks. I think I sort of just started drawing like that after I saw manhwa-artist, Rhim, Ju-Yeon's, art. XD

Wow, this tutorial is really helpful! Great job, your art is just really beautiful!
Just asking, where did you get the white gel pen and how long did the markers last without refilling? Coz I just bought a set of 72 Copic Ciaos and I just wanted to know how long it would be before refilling, if I don't overwork them and use them sparingly...
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Really? Hooray!
Ah, I got it at Art Media, which is an art store (could you tell?). XD I bet you could find one at Michael's, but I'm not 100% sure. Um, the markers last me quite a while because I don't color very large spaces with the same color (except for skin). I don't use them very frequently, either (so I can't really tell you how long they last). Um, just make sure that you refill your important colors.

Ah, thanks! Yeah, skin is really overused...XD
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Wow, you really know your stuff when it comes to markers! I'm unused to the medium, so I love marker tutorials. I love seeing your process, and your finished product looks beautiful!

Really? Ah, thank you very much. I love markers too!

how'd you do that without ripping the paper? cuz, if I color in the same place with markers to much, it just rips...TT_TT
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
What type of paper are you using?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Ah, I see. Printer paper isn't as sturdy (and certainly not as thick) as sketchbook paper or cardstock. I recommend using those thicker papers (or you can use the back of a manga manuscript paper).
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
ok, that sounds good. I can use my sketchbook!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
As long as the paper is pretty thick, you should be okay! XD

I like this tut. Im not very good at copic markers, and personally dont have any either. XD where did you get your copic markers? Are they expensive? D8
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Thanks! I get my markers at a store called Art Media for around $5 each, but you can buy them at several stores online (which usually sell them for cheaper): Copic Marker Official Purchase Site, Akadot Retail, or dickblick.com.
You could probably find some on eBay or amazon.com too.

wow really? Cuz last time i checked a place for copic markers they were like $20 for 10 markers, and i was like heck no! My mom would kill me if she found out i bought markers for that much. XD Ill try that.
