Welcome! It's my turn to post on our MarkerPOP Blog. I have been selected to the the "colorist" and so I thought it would be helpful to demonstrate techniques and color combos. I want to keep them short and sweet! LOL I hope you will enjoy it!
My image is called Angels Among Us (Saturated Canary)
We will be focusing on the basic skin tones today.
Supplies:
Cryogen paper (Curious Metallic)
Tuxedo Black Memento Ink (Tsukineko)
Button and Brown Sugar Baker's Twine
This little gal is looking to your left so I decided to make that my highlight side.
This is optional. I just like to have the direction the image is focusing to be my highlight.
It's like looking on the bright side! Haa!
I selected light skin tones for my little image.
I applied a base coat of my highlight side with E000
I then colored my shadow side with E11 and blended out with E00 and finished with my E000.
I added a touch of R20 to her cheeks.
I applied a small cast shadow with E11 to the shadow side once my image dried.
Notice that the pattern I like to use is my highlight for base coat, shadow, mid-tone and then highlight.
B27 and B21 was added to her eyes.
I colored her hair with C9, C7, C5, C3 and a touch of B000.
The shirt was colored with R56, R27, R24, R22 and R20.
Her jeans are B29, B27, B24 and B21. I texturized the jeans with colorless blender.
The shoes and feathers are: C5, C3, C1 and C00. I added a touch of B21
The grass combos used are G28, YG 63, G45 and G40.
A light shadow was applied with W3 and W1
The colorless blender was used to texturize the grass.
Background sky and clouds were created with C3, B21, B000, B00 and colorless blender.
Here is a MINI video on the skin tone color combo I used for this image.
Copic Alcohol Ink Markers: E11, E00, E000 and R20
I created a sentiment with calligraphy and added a button.
I hope you enjoyed this MINI! If you enjoyed this, I hope you hope over to our MarkerPOP Blog and make a note... just so they think someone is watching! LOL
