Description
2nd Copic fun that i was blessed with while Lovie =Shinerai was visiting me <3random creature that i colored.
Shin did the sketch, and this time i got to try my hand at the lining as well, which... i've always had a complex about., as well as the Copic coloring.
tried too many new things with it though and i think i suffered for it;
tried using a brush micron, instead of standard.
coupled with my lack of lining experience, it started to derail.
Lovie had lots of helpful information for me though, REALLY helpful information. <3 -hug-
Funnest part was doing the Copics (again)
as little of coloring as i've ever done, i've done even less coloring traditionally,
and a random creature with unknown colors was probably the most intimidating thing for me in this piece,
everything after that was alright.
technically speaking though, i do feel i made a few mistakes as far as layering goes; shadows mostly.
Also tried it on a much thinner paper than before, the Copic Marker Paper, to be specific.
still not sure if i liked it better or not.
thankfully, Lovie left me some extra pieces so i can fiddle around a bit when i get the chance.
All things considered, i feel it was a success ^^
if not from a craftsmanship standpoint,
then from a technical standpoint; it turned out rather pretty, and i also learned a bunch.
Love you Love! <3

I love his face so much <3 And the color is beautiful on him! I also really loving the shine and shadows!<3
Coloring traditional art intimidates me :C If you screw up it is sometimes really hard to fix!
I have never colored with copic markers but I hear they are really awesome!
This was a complete success on both your part and Shin's part!

o gawd ya.
i totally intimidated by traditional coloring and inking.
Copics are definitely good stuff, just wish they weren't so dang spendy.
I'll be getting some though for sure, just... -saves money- C:

X3
I usually end up never color any of my traditional art :C They have to remain plain :C
I wish they weren't expensive :C Otherwise I would probably buy them all x3
That would be awesome if you got some! You could be some epic colored Ryo drawings!

I love his face, man I have never touched copics before but I've made watercolors look like copics before but man I'd feel like I'd butcher a picture to easily using them xDDDD

nuu, Shin was visiting me in Minnesota x'3
but perhaps i'll visit Texas sometime soon as well.
you're in Texas aren't you?! ^^
anything past traditional sketch i do get intimidated by, cause it's so permanent; lining, coloring.
but it's good exercise to be able to draw draw draw, and not worry about screwing something up.
thanks Shia!
take care <3

Yeah I used to live about 30 mins from Shin, I met her once before and we saw HP6 before I moved to Waco (central Texas). You should come down for Akon I should be going this year its coming up really really soon though. They usually start it on Laborday weekend. [link]
Yeah I feel the same at times, I'm finally getting to were I don't feel like I'm butchering my sketches with coloring them xD

I'm glad you had a good time doing it. x3 I felt a bit like I was throwing you into deep water by doing a sketch and saying "LINE AND COLOR THIS NOW", but I liked helping you and it turned out quite lovely, I think. I'd definitely like to know if you enjoy the cardstock or the copic paper more that definitely suggests you should do more drawing, doesn't it ;D
