So many words

I spent a really, really long time making this, because it's two years' worth of washable marker experimentation summarized in one wordy tutorial.

I've put a lot of effort into figuring out how to make cheap washable Crayola markers look like watercolor paintings, so I thought I'd share how I usually do it.

The tutorial itself barely even scratches the surface of how I actually paint things besides a Kirby, so I'm probably going to do a separate walkthrough of how I paint other things (like hair, buildings, environments, and the like).

Please let me know if this helps you, and if you've tried this!

Here are the paintings I used as examples in the tutorial:

If you like what you see, you can also commission me! Here's the info for my traditional art commissions, and I'd be happy if you'd take a look!
