Shading tutorial (prepared for @furrealitycon) @copicmarkers

I prepped this small tutorial to be done in under 20 min at @furreality. I promised I’d also post it so here it goes 😉

1- draw a circle 

  
2- pick where your light source will come from. 

  
3 – choose your colors. Remember, with copic markers, the numbers can help you choose. First number is saturation and second is brightness. So I chose B23 for my first color 

4- color in the entire circle. 

  
5- next use you middle number, which in my case is B24. Shade in most of the circle, leaving a part of the circle untouched, where the light would strike it. 

  
6- add in the last, and darkest color, where you’d get the least light. In my case that’s B26. 

  
7- finally reapply your lightess color, B23 in this pic, to smooth out any hard breaks and blend the colors. 

  
8- You can use the blender pen to push any bleed back into the circle and smooth out any persistent lines you don’t want.
