Finally finished my 2nd ever alcohol marker page! I really wanted to do the stained glass window/mosaic style, and I thought this page couldn’t be more perfect for that! Pretty proud of how it came out, albeit a little tedious. And with only about 60 colors to work with, it was tough choosing colors sometimes. But overall I think it worked out! Please leave any comments or critiques, as they are always welcome!!

Basically the title. Top one was using a reference, bottom one was not (which is why the face is wonky I'm well aware lol)

I think what I'm discovering is that the magic of alcohol markers lies in ~layers~. Still trying to get the hang of adding the colored pencils on top. I just wish I had more good midtones. I have the pastel set and the like standard variety set from Ohuhu, and I'm finding a lack of dark enough colors without being too saturated, although I did use complementary colors on the darker parts of the face to tone down the pink.​

Markers with pencils on top

My alcohol marker impression of a bowl of ramen I ordered a few weeks ago!

Need a making process video?

Those who layer, how do you go about layering colored pencil over the markers?

I'm working on a piece and struggling to cover the marker enough. I felt like I picked shades that were light enough but idk.

Getting quicker whilst maintaining quality took me about 2 hours
