Description
Thank you to everyone who voted in my poll recently. As over 100 people said "yes", I put together this little turorial for those of you who are interested to learn how to make paperchildren of your own.
Final image can be seen here:
You don't have to use the exact media I do, but perhaps it might help you learn a few tips and tricks I have learned from fellow deviants and talented paperchildren artists.
Let me know what you think!
Thank you for looking!

Why does it have to be waterproof markers? I only have permanent markers and washable.

I don't think I say anywhere that it *has* to be. This is just a particular brand I like to use with a certain brand of Bristol Board too.

Whoops~ I mean 'BLANK'.
Like.. on most flashcards, they usually have a blank side on the back.Will making a paperchild on that kind ofmaterial work?

I'm no expert on paperchildren, but it would probably work out! ^^

You know like when people have speeches, and sometimes they have loads of pieces of card with each bit of a speech on it? That's a flashcard.

They're very expensive, but amazing quality~ Best on the market!
You can buy them a Curry's (I highly suggest them) or Michael's (both Canadian stores)

Thanks for posting this!
I just made a paper child,but I only had colored pencils,sharpies,and cardstock,but it worked good.
The paper child is a LOK Korra kitty,and right now,she's messing with my books.Eh,she tries to find a nice spot to lay.

Is there a big difference with using the regular copic markers and the copic ciao markers? I want to invest in some and was wondering what you would suggest
π: 0 β©: 1
tavington In reply to Gender-Ninja [2012-07-07 21:30:03 +0000 UTC]
Copic Ciao have a very nice brush tip, and they blend very well.
Apart from that, the only difference is the price tag!

Gender-Ninja In reply to tavington [2012-07-07 21:51:02 +0000 UTC]
hm okay thank you. Since I'm more used to using colored pencils and am a beginner with marker mediums, what would you suggest that I get to start off with? What size pack? And I looked them up in the official website for Copic markers and the colors look like they are a tad muted. Do you find that to be a difference as well?

tavington In reply to Gender-Ninja [2012-07-07 21:58:56 +0000 UTC]
Ah, ok. actually markers work really well with coloured pencils, you should try layering them.
I bought Set A, 72 pack, so I had quite a selection to start with. I do have a few open stock of ones not in this set though. I am saving slowly for Set B!

Gender-Ninja In reply to tavington [2012-07-09 15:15:40 +0000 UTC]
Oh wow that is rather pricey. But for copic markers that is to be expected.. you pay for quality I guess. So now I will save up for them! Thanks for the advice! =]

I can't believe I never thought of doing that, sticking a tab behind them to hold them in midair with, after all this time. I even tried using stands made from LEGO once.
