Happy King and Queen in Marker

 

This is my second alcohol maker drawing in a row. This time the tutorial is from Lacy Brydon for Awesome Art School. I followed Lucy's drawing using a Graphgear 1000 Pentel pencil on Bristol paper. I made a couple of changes along the way. Lucy used Ohuhu Markers for the coloring and mine are Copics. As I did in Karen's, I picked light skin tones. I think it probably would have been better with darker skin tones.

Lucy's marker technique is different from Karen's. Lucy blends the colors while they are still wet similar to watercolor painting. It was fun to learn this new technique.

Either way, I love how these came out!

Nicely done! The skin tones look good! I have become an Ohuhu fan. I started with Copics, but now use Ohuhu more than any of the other fifty brands I have! Thanks for another project to inspire those of us who are learning how to paint!
Hugz,
