Doodles and Finished Pieces

[Chris2Balls [:B]]

The shading was looking much better until I did the top tentacles, realised I'd overshaded and then decided to add the band at the top in a vain attempt to make it less jarring :V

Not gonna deny that I totally phoned this in though x:

Looking at it now, I think I should have layered more purple into the shading. The only problem is, the purple I have is pretty similar to the pink, so my options are still a bit limited! I'm not sure if diluting with water would work, since they're alcohol based, but I'll play around with it later. If not, I could probably try using lighter fluid or something because I am so punk (but I'll have to try that on less expensive paper in case everything goes horribly wrong)

Or, until I get more pens / get more used to markers, I could probably lay pencil over the top! Pencils are boss.

Thanks for the pointers, though! I didn't want to sound dismissive in my post :V

okay!
it's not about thinking it won't work, you have to try first! and it might work in a different way anyway.
yeah try pencil on top, that sounds interesting.
and as kat said, you can mix markers to create new colours (though they are darker as you can guess, because of the layering).


oh and nice work jarvis jarjar (sorry i mixed up jarjar and anubis )
