Copic Coloring WOW Factor

Hi readers! Today we have some fun inspiration from Sandy Allnock to show you how you can really add some WOW to your colored image!

Enjoy!

Hi everyone! It’s Sandy Allnock, back to visit with you again with some more Copic coloring fun. Today, though, we won’t be using markers as much as the tools to AMP UP our coloring!

I originally filmed the coloring of the whole image, but we’d have been here forever, so I’m just sharing the finishing touches with you here. You can do this on *any* image you’re coloring – flowers, people, scenes, monsters, snowmen. Anything can be amped up! Some of my favorite tools for that are the Copic Multiliner Pens now in the store, a white pen, and a colorless blender marker. Add on some Glossy Accents (did you know it comes in ateeny bottle? Less clogging!) and you can really make a stamped image SING.

Here’s the before and after of Tilda and Dexter the Dragon – I used the Nob Hill 6×6, Talk Bubbles, and Small Love You dies from Simon.

On the closeup, you can see the real difference all that detail makes – cleaning up edges, darkening shadow lines, adding texture to the dress, and that pop of white.

In this side view, even the shine of the Glossy Accents can be seen adding a little sparkle!

I hope you enjoy the video showing how to add all this delicious detail!
