Copic Markers: THE POWER!

I recently bought a new set of markers- copic markers- which I've been hearing great things about, from an artist friend of mine.

The pack I bought are all tones of gray and I haven't been able to play with them...until yesterday.

I went out with a friend to a local coffeehouse/bar place and drew some people in blue pen, then took those same drawings and applied copic marker to them.

Mind you,I took my gray newsprint pad aka the cheapest pad you can buy- so its not ideal for heavy inks- but I could still the difference it made in my sketches and I'll tell you this now my friends....I like it, I like it a lot.

Here are a couple pages of my studies








I also did a quick, horribly edited video of a caricature I did there at The Spiderhouse of a young hipsterish guy (its a sucky thing to film with your iphone in one hand and draw with the other i tell ya!)

Nevertheless, hope you enjoy!





Thats all I got for today folks, thanks for stoppin' by, take it easy now!
