Too many Copic instructors feed students the same old recipe for coloring reds. It always makes me scratch my head, how do you expect to color bold red images using pink markers?Let me say this loud and clear: Pink is not, Not, NOT light red!!!!Red is red and as soon as you introduce a pink marker to the mix, you kill your reds!So how do you color red that remains red?
New to Copic coloring? Never bought markers before? It’s easy to be overwhelmed by the many Copic Marker sets. You’re ready to play but you’re also nervous. Copics are a big investment! Unless you’re a long lost Rockefeller, most people can’t buy all 358 markers at once.
How do you make the most of your initial investment and what’s the best way to build your way up to a full collection?
You’re coloring a beautiful new stamp with Copic Markers and colored pencils. About halfway into the project you realize, Whoa! These colors are really bright!
Which is weird, because nothing you’re using is florescent. They’re just regular ol’ colors.
But together? Skip the sunglasses, you need protective goggles!
