hi its me again i was wondering what colors you started with because there are so many colors i want to get first hand but hardly any money can you please help me again sorry
@SchwarzeSonne19 Don't worry to ask me questions ! I'm happy if I can help a little. I choose first some skin tone colours, then 2 of each shade : a light and a dark blue, the same for green or red... I picked the colours I love the most : my 2 favs blue and red and green... (BTW I don't remember what were my first colours XD) With a light and a dark colour, you can use a brush and water (OR the blending pen) to blend colour together, so you can work on light and shadow ^^
@SchwarzeSonne19 And for my birthday, or Christmas, I always asked for 4 or 5 markers, so I had 2 then 5 then 8 blue markers, aso... It took me something like 5 years to have them all x__x (like Pokemons XD)
your art is amazing! :) i was actually thinking about getting Tombow markers but i wasn't sure if they were better or worse than copics... do you think you can give me your opinion on which ones will be greater to get?
@SchwarzeSonne19 I definitely prefer Tombow, they are easy to blend for me (I was used to watercolours so it's almost the same thing for me) Copics are great, but my paper don't work really well with them... I used some copics, but I really prefer my Tombow ♥ I have a couple one of copics for skin tones, because the colours are better than the Tombow. Tombow are a little cheaper too. I don't know if my opinion is the best, it's just what I like about copics and tombow ^^
@xmzbeam I don't exactly remember but I think it was (in order) : 800, 942, 772, a bit of 850 and blending with 800 maybe. I use 703 on a q-tip (is that the right word..?) for blush. It's lighter in camera than on real life BTW, I'm not really pleased (I never find skin shades that I like lol)
@Fingerboarder83 No, I have no problem with. One time I had a little problem, but it was : far too many layer to cover up a mistake v__v in "regular" time, for myself, I had no problem with layout paper (for Tombow. With Copics I have some troubles sometimes, if I don't wait, and if they're are not dry, they don't blend well and you see all the strokes and so, it's not nice :/)
@Fingerboarder83 Maybe one minute or so... Just the time to cover the area, then go back with the second color. If you let the Tombox dry too much, you'll be not be able to blend the colours with the blending pen or a brush and water ^^
@KonnichiwaSushi Not, I don't remember that they bleed through the paper... You can see a little colour when you flip the paper, but that's all... not like alcohol markers :/ (I don't really like alcohol markers because of that)
@ArturBecker I have the most of them from 8 years or so, and they still are good. I just needed to buy some colours I use a lot, like some grey ones...
@StephanieSpardaXD : I don't have any tutorial, I don't think I'm good enough to do one, maybe in the future if I feel more confident about my skills ^^

Does the paper grain up or fall apart after too many stroke layers?
