Description
After sitting there half-finished for the better part of a month, I finally have my eighth 3 Marker Challenge complete. I admit I'm not thrilled with this one (mostly the patchiness of the background - all three markers were dead by the end of this), but the linework isn't bad, and I like how the light source turned out? It's not terrible?

I wasn't entirely sure which colour set I was going to use for this initially, but it was my first time trying out "erasable" graphite paper on Rendr paper, and that sealed it: as dark colours as possible (these ones were chosen by a former coworker). NONE of this so-called erasable graphite paper is any more erasable than the carbon paper I've used, and I'm admittedly pretty salty about it. I gave up, cleared my drawers of it, and bought a huge chunk of graphite to make my own with (which has worked swimmingly - AND it's erasable).

Done with Prismacolor brush markers in the colours Violet Blue, Scarlet Lake, and Deco Peach. Done on Rendr marker paper. Bits of white gel pen and white pencil crayon throughout.
