    I just wanted to say thanks Evan for putting up this video. I had heard of copic markers but you showed me what they could do with this vidoe. This is the video where I decided to get my first 12 cool copic grey marker set and after that some could say I went a little crazy with buying markers after that. I have about 430 markers now. Copic and Prismacolor. I've went marker crazy. Thanks for putting out great videos like this Evan.

    Didn't realise until now just how versatile Copics are. You've sold me on them.
    Solid Batman by the way. Really digging the values. Nice work.

    The thing I love about Copics, is that it is almost like coloring with watercolors. The blending, and layering act in a very similiar manner to watercolors, but lack the need to concern yourself with as much lack of color and bleeding, plus worrying about water saturation in your paper. Oh, and I would love to see Black Cat done with Copics...shiny leather always comes across really well using them. Thanks!

    God I wish copics weren't so expensive. I only have 3. I couldn't really afford much, and the store I got them at didn't have a huge selection. So I figured instead of getting 3 random colors that didn't go together, I ended up getting 3 of the Cool Grey markers. C1, C3, and C5. My thought was, that at least I'd have 3 similar ones, and I could use it for b/w drawings. Turns out, they're like, my favorite things ever, but I still haven't gotten any more. I can't exactly afford like $5 per marker.

      Ebay has quite a few "lots" that are sold at around $3-$4 per marker. You might also consider opting for copic Ciao. They're the same as copic sketch with slight design differences and they hold less ink, but since copics are refillable you'll just end up refilling it more often than sketch markers. They're much cheaper, though.

  • @JoroJojoro
    @JoroJojoro 8 років тому

    Thanks for this video. I want to do value when drawing comics, and not just make it stark black and white, but I tend to abuse crosshatching to do that value, so using greys is definitely the best alternative to over the top crosshatching.

  • @lukebennet6989
    @lukebennet6989 5 років тому

    Great tutorial mate! Using Batman was a good call to demonstrate these markers. I just got a set if these yesterday and I'm liking around for ways to use them, and your tutorial gave me some good tips for when I start to use them; so thank you! Also, my eyes caught that Teen Titans, Robin figure in the back. Cool piece you have there!

  • @langelslshadowl
    @langelslshadowl 11 років тому

    Really awesome drawing! Looks great! Though I'd like to mention that you can, in fact, go from darkest to lightest with copic sketch. I've used them for a few years now and practiced both ways. Basically going lightest to dark builds the colour but you can easily see the differences in tones, giving it a cell-shaded look, whereas going darkest to light blends the colours and gives it a softer feel. Neither is right or wrong, it's just what you prefer. I use both methods :)

    Do you prefer the cool greys to the warm greys? When I use my copics, I generally use the warm greys, because they also work well with water soluble pencil. Very nice work, I like the look of the darker portion of his cowl as it comes forward, with the gradations visible around the edges. I'm gonna have to do some copic sketches now!

    I hope you don't mind me asking, except what kind of editing program did you use to make that awesome opening intro? Especially the special effect for the your drawings to pop out of their drawings? Thanks for making these how to videos.I have yet to find a set of these markers, except I hope to so I can experiment with them.Thanks to your wonderful videos, they give me a lot of insight before I even buy them.
