Description You all voted on it and now I've finally put it together.

I forgot to include, I'm using Prismacolor markers, not Copics.

This is pretty rough and hopefully easy to follow and understand. This is only how I work with marker medium on badges. There are other methods and tools to use. Try finding your own adoptions if you try it out.
Aww, I forgot her snout stripe. Shame on me.

HOW DID I FORGET TO COMMENT ON THIS ASDFGHJKLTGGGGFY7U66Hooiiiliu
Seriously, this was sooooo helpful when I first got my markers, and still is to this day. I used to think I couldn't even blend markers XD. Geez, if it weren't for this, I would have probably given up on markers long ago out of frustration. thank you

I don't own any prismacolor markers, but this was helpful and good for future reference when I will be using markers more. Good job.

Cool, I think I'll save up some money so I can buy a few.

That is the downside to using prisma is that they're not a cheap medium to get into.

Oh, I knew that. Hence why I need to save money so I can buy a few.

Nicely written, easy to follow. I usually work from light to dark (a holdout from my watercolour beginnings I think) though I think I'll give this a go when I colour the next time

FireMaster13 In reply to terceleto [2012-04-16 23:53:48 +0000 UTC]

As I mentioned, there are many ways. I think my colors blend easier when I go from dark to light. If I go light to dark, I make sure to go over the whole gradient again with the lightest color. Either way works.
I hope it's helpful.

terceleto In reply to FireMaster13 [2012-04-17 19:44:54 +0000 UTC]

Going over again with the lightest colour is exactly what I do when I work with markers light to dark.

FireMaster13 In reply to terceleto [2012-04-17 22:39:41 +0000 UTC]

It's another really nice method. I think I go dark to light so I don't have to go over things again.

SatoshixMuu [2012-04-16 19:25:21 +0000 UTC]

I used to start by the normal colors and later add the dark ones, maybe that's why the colors didn't come out right.
Very helpful, Thank you!

You are amazing. I sold my markers, but they were grayscale. I still wish I could have practiced more.

Thank you!
Aww, sad day. There are still two gray sets I'm vying for from Prismacolor- their warm and french gray sets. I think you would have done some awesome things with marker. Mayhaps you'll try it again some time.
