Real shade is not darker color…
Real shade is desaturated color.
To create the desaturated colors that Copic does not make, Vanilla Arts Company teaches Online Workshops using the underpainting method. Students learn to layer colors realistically rather than blend.
Underpainting creates natural colors found in everyday life.

Elena’s Advice:
Many Copic tutorials would add E29 to deepen this color run. So the question is:
Do you want your coloring to be like everyone else’s?
Be brave, use your B66 marker for a more realistic color run!
