Artist's Comments

I have a month long exhibit in a local downtown coffee shop in June so I decided to revisit my Fey sketch from THIS deviation so I could add it to the show! I made a few changes to her face to soften it and make it more "buyer friendly" I hope she doesn't look too kabuki-theater X3

This is my first time using Copic markers. I gotta tell ya, I'm not much of a fan. I think it was that them being five or six bucks a pop, I was expecting some epic coloring. I suppose it beats the mess of watercolor painting.. though I added some of that in later anyway >_>
I also found some opaque white ink which I am now IN LOVE with. Lookit how crazy I went with it! :heart:

Fey belongs to me
Done with pencil, Copics, watercolor, colored pencil and white ink.

It came out really well, for your disliking of the Copics. :) (I've never used them myself, so i have no point of reference.)

Thank you :) I do like them somewhat, I just have to get used to how they work. It's probably best I don't get too attached anyway though, considering how pricey they are XD

You're welcome.:)
Yeah, the price. o_o I've always wondered what they'd be like, but the price is just way too much.

I know! For the longest time I refused to pay that much for them but our campus store had them on discount so I caved and bought two. >_>

Oooh. I probably would, too. Then again, i went & bought a 6B pencil because it was under a dollar. ^^;

I think you need to have the right kind of paper for the Copics. I didn't really like them with bristol because it bled too much, much more than the Prismas. I think the "manga" paper which has the smoother, more plastic feel, takes it a lot better. I haven't tried it, but that's what I figure since that's what is recommended.

PS. She's pretty and I'm going to make her my girlfriend

Ah that makes sense. How troublesome. I wouldn't be able to use watercolors for touch-up on plasticy manga paper. :P Oh well. Good thing I didn't buy a huge pack of em! XD

PS. lol she can't cook but she makes a good coat-rack. :heart:
