Marker shading/blending tutorial
A quick tutorial of how I shade and blend with my alcohol markers! Told ya I’d make one
Step 1 - Base color! Get your base color down and filled in!
Step 2 - More base color? What?
First make sure the area isn’t wet. If it’s still wait, wait a little bit for the ink to settle. Then take your base color again, and fill in the area you’re shading.
Step 3 - Finally, I can grab a different marker
Grab a darker color for the area you’re going to shade, and put that down on top of the part you just shaded. Don’t go as far as you did before.
Step 4 - Dammit I need the base color again?!
Go over with the base color once again, focusing it on the dark color and where the dark color meets the base color. Keep going until blended and then….
Voila! Beautifully shaded
Hope this helped!
