As i mentioned earlier, after experimenting with my first set of COPIC sketch markers, i found that i really enjoyed working with them - far more than i ever did with computer based CG stuff (barring the possibility of getting a Cintique, which i'm still not convinced would actually improve the situation). So much so that i have now invested in all four 72 marker sets (i'm writing a rant about all that right now). Having pretty much the full range of COPIC markers gives me a much broader color range to work with, and after fiddling around with them for a few weeks i feel it was definitely a worthy investment (it might not be for everyone, but for me it has been). I've also been refining how i work with them - i've found that printing a 600 dpi scan to marker paper, using the highest quality settings on my Epson R300 gives me really good lines to work with, and the re-scan isn't quite as fuzzy as it was with earler experiments. The color selections in this piece are not really the best - but it is a pretty nice example of some of the experimentation i've been doing lately. Oh, this drawing was originally a DPD from a while back.
