Drawing: Art Marker Tips & Techniques

Tips:

• When lines show up during fills, stroke the opposite direction to get rid of them.
• Colorless Blender markers are great for erasing and blending on tracing paper.
• can also load multiple colors on the clear nib and do strips.
• can use plastic palette to mix colors.
• just remember to clean off blender.
• put acetate or plain white paper to modify bleed characteristics.
• can use Prismacolor color pencil to correct overly darkened values.

• Vehicles:
• always have a ground shadow
• find your dark areas (optional technique)
• otherwise, render from light to dark (since there's no UNDO) aka. "Sneak Up" on the values.
• ground colors bounce off and show in areas close by.
