Beginner's Guide to Buying Copics by Khallandra
-When I decided that I wanted to start using Copic Markers I found that I was a little overwhelmed by choice and then ended up buying some marks I have never used (YR16 Apricot anyone?) and constantly had to keep going back to get more (greys especially).
So I put together this tutorial on how to start your own Copic collection as it would've assisted me greatly (and my bank balance).

Tutorial: Nightshade's Vanity by KiwiChameleon
-This Tutorial features:

- Copic markers
- Copic airbrush system

I have been working on this tutorial for the last 4 weeks, I think; on and off. Phew, and I am really happy that I managed to finish it. It took me some time to compile it all.

I wanted to have it done much earlier but I couldn't for various reasons. Now I can work on some other stuff again. You can download the tutorial if you want. I hope it's helpful and I didn't talk any gibberish. Be careful though, the filesize is huge!

Marker Colouring :advanced: by KiwiChameleon
-This Tutorial features:

- Tria markers

My promised marker tutorial is finally here! ...or again? It might be familiar to some of you since it is a resubmit from my old account. It took me literally ages to do and I hope it's of some use to you guys. Well, it's a rather long yet in depth tutorial on "how to use markers". Please enjoy!

PS: The version you see here is the "preview" which is slightly smaller in size than the full version. For better viewing I suggest downloading the ZIP-file. If there are any problems with opening the file, please let me know.

PPS: Feedback is always appreciated!

Marker Tutorial by aerinl
