sharpies didnt have color names on em back then so I have no idea. The cap looks a mix between tan and goldenrod

HOLY BEJESUS!!!
THAT LOOKS PRO. Omg I had no idea it was that easy!!!
I see people draw like that all that time and I always think "HOLY CRAP THAT MUST TAKE HOURS. Look at how they shade it...". But I had NO IDEA AT ALL that it was so easy.
I cannot shade for beans so I was suprised when I saw this
Thank you so much!!!! Now all I need is some Sharpies...>:3

question: I always have the same problem coloring with the sarpies, how do I avoid the hateful fail coloring? (overlapping lines).

Auffallend In reply to Onimoz [2010-08-19 08:20:04 +0000 UTC]

moving quickly b4 the ink has a chance to dry, or if u got a steady hand, going on the sides of each line

sh-artistry [2007-12-27 19:14:21 +0000 UTC]

Very insightful tutorial!

I do like you and your Sharpie skills! I usually like to do pencil sketchs and ink them with ball-point/fine-point pens. (Or using washable markers and water... lots of stuff.)

By the way, remember me? I'm Sharon! Now I go run around in your gallery...
