BLICK manga markers

Tombow is great, but really, when it comes to  blending, alcohol markers have them beat by a long shot. I get home one day and my mom just pops me with a bag of 4 skin color manga markers from blick with 'You know, you're a great person. this is for you.' % awesomeness stars for my mom!
Any way, the colors I got were( in my opinion) the best Caucasian skin tones.

 Here's a little pic with a lot of skin to color, so I just traced it out on some marker paper to try out my markers.
And Viola! 
The colors I got were Light peach, Sand, Shell and Beach. There was just one thing to dampen m sand castles in Cyprus- and that's that the shell was purely alcohol. This bugs a lot of people about blick, because sometimes you'll get a dud marker, but really that can happen all the time. I did just fine without it! They base color I like using best is Beach. :)

Police officer Art


 It's been a long time for me to use the tombow manga markers- or any markers at all. Yesterday I made this and I'm super proud of it, even though it is a little sloppy. It's a cover of sorts.

Watercolor

Trying to do a little more than just line art. Watercolor is a really cool medium, but I don't have a handle over it and it's not precise enough for my perfectionism.

Sleepover drawing

Here is a sketch I drew with a friend and then a few of hers. We drew them at a sleepover.
Mine:

and here are her manga sketches: 

This friend was essential in my choice to draw Manga and STICK WITH IT. She truly is amazing!

Manga art I've drawn recently

I finally took the time to scan some manga drawings!

 This is my attempt at drawing a fantasy/military kinda character.

All. The. Time.


Gypsy-themed villain


Whimsical anime sprite

 I ship sun and moon children. XD


 Jenny, a police officer going through a lot of character development and being pushed in and out of several stories.
