Another great set mate - interesting to see how comfortable you have become with rendering in the medium and at that size.

I hope these are moving well for you!

For the most part they have done well.... I am selling them reasonably cheap compared to some other artist's here..but I am new at it and as I hone in on it maybe that can change. Right now it is just giving me some needed supplemental income and giving me something to do with my evenings.... actually enjoying the whole process and figuring out how to improve them as I go.
Thanks for your continued moral support it is very appreciated.

Well you tell me lol... I think these look really good in person but again the scan picks things apart.

They look great, but are you having an easy time with them? I have trouble working sketchcard size with the markers!

Yes it can be difficult, I have about ten in the scrap pile...sometimes they are just too small to get good detail or they go wrong on me. I did some more lebowski ones the last few nights, one of them is a scene with the dude running from the red suit scissor nihilist guy's. It turned out surprisingly well for all that going on. The nice thing about Copics is they have that fine paintbrush type end for small detail...really something I could never achieve with paint brushes. I would think you would do well with them since you paint so well...

I may have to get some to try out. I've been using my old prismacolor pens. I've had some of them for maybe 15 years and I'd say like 75% of them are on their last leg.

Oh dude I have some of those prisma markers, they are totally different.... You have to get at least a few Copic's, makes artwork so much easier. I hesitated because they are pricey...but I would say I am hooked. Get some watercolor paper to work them on... they blend nice. Hobby Lobby sells them and usually has them 30 % off...I have already bought about twenty, apparently there is 300+ colors to choose from. They also sell a airbrush kit where you can hook up the marker and do some fine airbrush work. But like I say they are proud of them and they are steep. You can go to trevmurphy.com and watch a few of his tutorials.. he shows how to use them on sketch card portraits of faces.

I remember seeing when I first joined on here that a lotta folks used the copics, but I didn't know there was a difference. I may pic up a little set tomorrow when I'm in Atlanta and give them a try! I watched one of those tutorials and bookmarked the site too, thanks man!
