Thanks for your tip! :)

ohmygoshthankyou💙

It's also very useful for removing streaks when you don't want to add another layer.

This is why I read comments

Dominobear, 300th like

Jazza describes it as "blending between the color of the paper itself into the color", which I think makes more sense.

I do this too!!

@@Captain_Mink nope

same! works like a charm : )

Thanks a lot for your kind comment :) I am glad that the video was helpful for you ;)

Lol I’m jealous of you I had to buy my own

Thanks a lot for your kind words :)) p.s.: It's an alpaca ;D

@@JunifarbenIllustration I love Alpacas

This is a very real pain :') too relatable

I relate to this too much :')

D O N ' T AAAAH

I straight up tell my friends no as nice as possible cus I'm nice but not nice enough to lend my expensive markers lol. I'll offer my cheaper ones instead if they just need any kind of marker. (I keep water based markers since I like them too and I'll lend those out)

learn to say no! copics are too expensive to just let someone borrow it.

Thanks for your tip :) I've tried this long time ago too and it really worked (but just for very minor mistakes). But lately I am just too lazy to correct my mistakes with a blender, instead I try to improvise :D But this would have been another good point for the video! Maybe there will be a part 2 somewhen in the future^^

CrazyAna Star I

my mom bought my copic markers while I was watching anime cuz I have no life but she bought 77$ dollar copic markers and I didn't know and I said you know what you just did she said yes ik how much you wanted them and you couldn't find where to get them so I bought them for you and I am still waiting for a new sweatshirt cuz I'm a 11 year old and I'm emo af XD but when my markers get here I'm officially dead 😃

You have to be at least thirteen to be on KZfaq. Get off of KZfaq.

2ksubsnocontentchallenge :D N O your not the boss of me so how about shut up and mind your freaking business I may be 11 but I can go on KZfaq everyone at my school goes on KZfaq and your telling me I can't well I think its stubid so leave me alone and mind your business

omg i do this with my felt tip eyeliners! Which means there’s no way it doesn’t work, since the pens are the same concept. Thank you for this tip! Just got my first set of markers (:

THANK YOU SO MUCH I WAS WONDERING ABOUT THIS ALL THE COLOURS I USE OFTEN JUST DRY OUT

there's also a reason why your marker dries out! if you leave it standing, the ink will flow to the bottom, making the top dry.

At first I read it as shake it for 2 hours, not 2 minutes. I was like dang girl, your biceps must be hella strong 😂 I’ll have to try this! This sounds like the easiest way that I’ve seen so far.

Thank you for your kind comment :) I am glad that the video was helfpul for you!

Thanks for your tip! I never ever heard about that before, that's definitely something I will try out :)

Choco Draws 100th like

Wholy crap i wasn't expecting 100 likes, wow!

Choco Draws your welcome!

lol im kinda suprised u didnt know that about the blender but u were trying to teach others how to use the blender=0 good thing i kinda zoned out and missed that whole part.

So true!

But i broke my other tablet ._. I mean it's almost my birthday so yay ;-;

When i got my tablet i drew alot better actually

It happens to me too, good thing I'm not nice.

I also did better with a new tablet. :P But I was lucky enough to go from a 10+ yr old Wacom to a knock off drawing monitor. My line arts improved in leaps and bounds. Digital painting is a transition... But I do agree the materials only take you so far... I had years of experience with a tablet and the new one just improved one of my weak areas because I knew how to make line art traditionally already and i'd just finished inktober... The only time I think materials will matter is in the limits the cheaper ones have such as the lack of color options of water based markers... And the fact that they stain from other colors where the more expensive alcohol (not copics alone) can clean that ink out... But the more expensive is still useless if you have no skill to couple or experience to add... A copic cant make a oval a circle... But practice could.

So true :D

XD Some day I will learn how to pronounce that correctly. . . . some day... 🙈

@@JunifarbenIllustration you did pronounce it right, it was just the accent.

Thanks a lot for this tip! :) I will definitely try that in my next marker artwork^^

Np :D for large backgrounds I would recomand using watercolor, it goes faster :) And look pretty similar to copic XD :)

Ina V T :)

Hey can i ask you something? When i color the skin i cant always color it in a circular motion cause i have to avoid the eyes and mouth so i just have to color it in forth and then switch to back (to fill the face)... Thats when i get streaky areas with darker tone of color lines in the skin :((( How can i fix that?? Also 2 layers make the skin look darker than it must be!! Pls help me :(((

@@j_kw03 try using colour pencil on the marker after using the marker as a base layer

what is a blender? :(

;D

And THIS is why I don't trust my friends with my alcohol markers! 😂 Two of my friends would just use them to draw "tatoos" on themselves, and I just know another friend I have would just sit there and BEG me to use them, and then use them on printer paper/notebook paper.

Bleach Drawing Get new friends . . . Jk 😂

You’re friend should take some lessons

Tayná Marini Fontanela yeah exactly... she is using alcohol markers

The markers drank too much alcohol XD

Anonymous Someone I'm in Organic Chem II and we certainly _do not_ describe alcohols as "alcoholic compounds" lol, they're just "alcohol compounds". Alcoholic _does_ mean the drinking kind, and you don't drink your copic markers. 😂

Drunken abusive marker

The marker is alcoholic because they drink too much alcohol last night lol

@@Captain_Mink r/whooooooooooosh

@@leixu9338 r/ihavereddit

That's a great explanation for the way the blender works ;D

Melody Qin oop

Melody Qin yes. People who are alcoholic and are marker artists, this is for you!

Thanks! I will try that out ;D

Junifarben Illustration I hope it helps you 😊

I think you’re supposed to put the blender on first before the colors...

i like ur pfp it’s haebom

@@atgil_9 I don't know anymore 😥

Thank you for your sweet comment :)

Thank you so much for this huge compliment :))!!

Thanks a lot for your support :) I hope you are enjoying your new Copics so far! ^^

Thanks a lot :)

Why in the hell do they even call it that

Technically you can use it to blend into white if you want the effect of a shine without harsh line. Another technique is the "tip-to-tip" method where you can place the tip of a colored Copic to the tip of a Colorless blender to create a lighter shade. The third method I've seen people do with the colorless blender and actually use that one first, pretty much wetting the area with colorless ink to let you lay down a smooth layer of color, and it does make it easier to blend on top of it since it's better to blend wet-on-wet ink. So yes you can use it to blend, just not in a way that seems well...obvious to use. I didn't know about the third way until about 3 years ago when I saw somebody do that at a worshop.

Thanks a lot :) I hope you enjoy your markers so far ^^!

MINTMON * u

That's a great tip, thank you! I will try that out later :)

Thank you for your kind words :) If you like to see this blender technique in a more in-depth way, you can watch this video I made some time ago : kzfaq.info/get/bejne/p9WDd8t0qJeqn2w.html :)

funny turtle I've had mine for some time and didn't know how to use it, so i kept ruining it by mistake (trying to figure out how to use it) i didn't know what it was called to look it up

;D

Du hast vollkommen Recht, ich bin Deutsche ;D

cocaine dance party dachte ich mir auch die ganze Zeit😂😂 woran merkt man das?

ich glaub der Name "Junifarben" hilft da ein bisschen :D Und die Aussprache halt auch. Ich hab teilweise gehört dass die englischen Wörter bzw. 'Geräusche' die für mich früher schwierig auszusprechen waren ihr auch ein bisschen Probleme gemacht haben ;)

Aleah Evans Der Name ist mir erst jetzt aufgefallen😂

50% ? 😂 man hört es zu 100% an ihrer Aussprache/ihrem Akzent raus. Deutscher Akzent hört sich so schlimm an '''

Thanks, I will try that! Honestly I still like my marker paper, mostly because I don't waste too much ink and I can easily blend the colors. I tried them out in my mixed media sketchbook and in this one the colors are all looking slightly different. I didn't expect that ^^" But you're right, marker paper is super thin.

I use straight up drawing paper with a paper to catch extra ink or mix media paper. It usually works out well enough for me ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

If you know its going to get saturated you can try Poster/cardstock. Its a bit heavier but cheaper then copic paper. Still has the slight bleed but it can take a lot more abuse. I buy the art tiles of card stock too they hold up against markers and water colors great but they are smaller. Good for doodles to sell or practice.

Mix media paper is good but I find it a little too absorbent. I use 110lb cardstock which I find works the best

Junifarben Illustration Have you tried Hammermill Color Copy Digital (100lb) paper? It's on Amazon, and for the price (around 15-20 USD) you get 250 papers. I find it excellent for Copics, and there are plenty of people who use it in place of Copic Xpress it paper.

Thanks a lot :D I just tried to remember all the difficulties I had when I started with alcohol markers, it seems that it worked ;D

;D

You're welcome :)

I am glad that I could help you ;D

Whuaaa, that's awesome :))

Junifarben Illustration thanks for replaying!! I know this is awesome!!!!

To be fair, thicker paper makes the markers bleed as well. I find Marker Paper to make them bleed the least, but I don't like the way it looks for some reason.. Thing is, when you use really thick paper you actually waste more ink, due to the paper sucking up more :/

Dana H I use sketch paper,lmao. It's kind of in between. Not too thin,not too thick. The ink lasts forever and the markers don't bleed a lot

It dont really suck up too mutch ink, I have 6 years of experience with copics and watercolour paper XD I had the same markers for 6 years and only a few ( 5 of over 100 markers are now dry) of the ones I used the most went dry! :D I did alot of full coloured A3 and A4 drawings too :) I think it comes down to preference though! But i wouldent recomand marker paper, it is over priced ( at least in my land! i can buy a 500 pages watercolour A3 block for 20 dollar, but marker paper with 100 thin pages cost 40- 50 dollar) And you can only blend and lay on colours to a certain point before you draw a hole in the marker paper ^^; And i get nervous since the paper is so thin! thick paper is more durable in the end :) But thats my preferance XD

nahgem, I've found that Bristol works best for me.

The best would be X press it Blending Card

Thank you, I am glad that the video was helpful for you! And enjoy using your new markers :)

That will be an amazing Christmas for you this year ;D

Awww thank you!

Me too!!

Superioli 7 cool! That would probably be a wonderful X-mas for you :P

Wow, that's a crazy story :D It's heartbreaking even just to read that super expensive stuff was used to do some doodles 😱 If I was in that situation, I would have died XD

That's why I don't even let people come near my pencil case. XD

I let some kid use one of my prisma colors and he pressed down super hard and when I tried sharpening it later on it was all weird and messed up

That's exactly why I always leave the good quality supplies home

Aww, thank you so much for your sweet words :)

:D

Junifarben Illustration Der Liebling der kuntlehrerin zu sein hat nicht nur vorteile....

yea thats what i thought too. i like using mix media because the paper is thicker and i can layer more without making those weird splotches that happen with marker paper.

I prefer using watercolour paper ( 200 g thic ) :) Then i can blend as much as i like and i can use watercolour, paint etc :) And id dont suck up too mutch ink, i have 6 years of experience with copics and watercolour paper XD I had the same markers for 6 years and only a few of the ones i used the most went dry! :D I did alot of full coloured A3 and A4 drawings too :) I always buy sketch book paper that is from 200 - 160 g thic since it is perfect for testing colours, blending and colouring small sketches :)

Ina V T I use a German brand and it works incredibly well with everything except watercolors ofc...I don't work with watercolord too much though and found out that Gouache works super well for me!

Thats great :) Watercolours can make some really pretty backgrounds :) Its good to find something that works for you :D

Ina V T Gouache is the same as watercolors when you use more water

Thanks for your tip :) Some others said this in the comment section too! I still haven't tried it, but I will definitely do so soon!

StabbyAbby *gasp* EDD!! I love your profile pic sooo much, dude!

read the material safety datasheet. Usually, they contain ethanol and isopropanol. Do not consume isopropanol.

i have, it made me through up a little and i had to go to poison control but the affects were great, it was like i was high for a year straight
