I'd like to get a set of markers, but can't afford anything expensive:( do you have any suggestions on cheaper markers?
thanks!
love your site here;)
To Trish - thanks for your comment, I'm glad you like my site! Copic markers are the best for blending, shading, and smooth coloring, but they are expensive initially. (Not so bad over time, because they are refillable.) As noted in my "try this" introduction post, Almost all of my 1974-76 drawings, plus the bright bird from 1985, were done with just a black Sharpie (try the ultra-fine point) and a set of 24 fine-point Pentel water based markers (called color pens). That would be my suggestion if you want to try it. Hope that helps!
