Description //EDIT 2: Oh Wow! That was so unexpected, thanks so much to ^Elandria for the DD!!

//EDIT: I usually hate making edits in artist's comments because they look werid in my opinion but in this case... I really need to thank you all for making this so unexpectedly popular!
Thank you freaks, you rock!
Oh, and I also fixed some spellng mistakes. :] //EDIT END



It's a really big file so I recomment having some patience.
Download for the full view!

Since I've been asked around 759 times how I make my coloring look like the way it is, how I use alcohol and how I combine markers with colored pencils etc. etc. I decided to sit down for fucking eight hours and do this goddamn tutorial, because I love you guys ♥ and I want to help you improving.
I know pictures are nice but also please fucking READ IT!
thanks.

So this is the process of this drawing/painting including tips and the usage of the many differnt tools I'm working with.
Oh and I couldn't differnt but being a little sarcastic and trying to put a few jokes here and there.

If you have any questions or suggestions about anything, feel free to ask me!


And no, these markers aren't mine, as well as the colored pencils. Google is your friend.

Psychocereals In reply to TheEnglish [2011-12-31 01:15:06 +0000 UTC]

Nope, it's ethanol which you usually use for ovens. I'm buying this stuff for our oven myself so I know pretty much what I'm using in my art.

If I look at `PearlEden 's art, I could totally say the same, but instead it is better to get encouraged by artists like her.

Whoever actually has those many markers, as a fair warning to you, watch out for rapists.

Amazing! Especially the use of alcohol, I'll have to try that next time with my copics. And I second the greatness of white acrylics--white-out also works just as well. Thanks so much for the tutorial :3

Wow, thank you for making this, it's really helpful! I'm definitely using these tips as soon as I get a chance.

I noticed a tiny mistake (I think you wanted to write "make", not "ake" in the sixth "K2 says") but shh, I won't tell anyone ; )
