Made with the image drawn for Kitten on RagnaInfo.net, one of the winners of my auction, which is a very long and complicated story but anyways.

I was asked to take in progress photos of my marker work and I decided to just make a tutorial out of the photos. This is the first tutorial I've made like this for deviantART and it took a full 4 hours to put together, so I hope people like it and I would love to have some feedback. The image is of Kitten's huntress Kari Evelyn.

Unfortunately you're not going to find Copic markers anywhere for less than $5-6 USD, but sometimes at conventions (in US) there are booths that offer a buy one, get one free deal with Copic markers, which comes out to about $3 each. I haven't seen these in a while, though, and of course you'll need to pay for a convention badge to get in (usually ~50-70 for a weekend pass). Hope that helps!

Draw a lot, draw every day!! Also if you're interested in purchasing copics, try to get them at conventions or other events or promotions, because they get very pricy very fast @__@

Oh, ok! And I could draw anything? I have a set of 32, and even they were expensive! If you checked my newest deviation, that's how my first picture with copics turned out! For me, I think it's a new kind of art, and I like to draw people (mostly anime) but it's crazy! And I am going to an anime convention in February, so I'll keep an eye out for them. Thanks for the tips! I'm sure I'll be doing lots more with copics!

Definitely expand your range and draw everything!! You can start with anime people, but move onto things like figure studies with muscles, skeletons, also just everyday objects around you, like tables, chairs, curtains, etc. to understand lighting, shadows, and perspective (: Have fun in February at your convention!!

P.S. I think I only have 38 copics total haha (: You can do a lot with what you have! Your first piece looks already great!

Oh ok, because lighting and shadows are super hard! Thanks so much for the advice. I'll acknoweldge you when I make art with markers from now on!

I wonder why copic markers are usually put with manga. I've seen some artwork that used copic markers but wasn't manga style. But anyway, this was relly helpful and I hope I buy the right kind when I get some.
