Hey all! Jessie here today to share a simple way to enhance your copic colouring, I personally love mixing my coloured pencils and copics together, but for a quick easy way to enhance those copics and make those shadows nice and dark is with nothing more then a black coloured pencil (for this project I used a Faber-Castell Polychromos black, but any black coloured pencil will work!)
I started off by printing the Acorn Ornaments Digital Stamp on Copic X-press it blending card. I coloured it up with my copic markers.
Copics used:
E79, E77, E74, E71, E70
BG09, BG07, BG05, BG02, BG01, BG000
RV29, RV25, RV23, RV21, RV10
Now I am going to come in with my black coloured pencil and slowly add in the darkest shadowns to make it really pop and read as 3D. I have a series of pictures showing you as it gets added in.
I then took these little acorns and fussy cut them out and they are ready to be put on a sweet Christmas card.
I have always loved how much dimension adding that little bit of black can give an image.
Thanks for stopping by,
Hugz,
Jessie
