Emilio Boo Oink Oinker
Happy Sunday my Lacy friends! It is my turn to post today and I have Emiloo Boo Oink Oinker to share with you today! When I was coloring this little cutie I kept thinking of my daughter Heather, she loves little pigs and in my head I kept reciting " this little piggy went to market....this little piggy stayed home!"
When coloring, I used both my SN and Copics...unfortunately I do not have good combos for pink in my Copics.
Have a happy Emiloo Boo kind of day!

Hi Everyone, Anet here.
Today I want to share my colouring
of the basket with you.
I used Heather's
Here is my colouring
of the basket in the
following steps
First I coloured the whole basket with my lightest Copic Sketch Marker. I always find that my colour combination blend easier.
Secondly I added my cast shadows with my darkest Copic Marker.
To blend the Brown Copic Marker Combination I start blending the previous darkest marker colour with my second darkest marker and ended with my lightest marker.
I went back for a second time with my darkest Copic Marker and end with my lightest marker. I added a touch of Y11 and my own basket detail with my darkest marker.
My finished coloured

Tori - Dare to be Different
Greetings, fellow colorists. Julie here today from Muddy Paws & Inky Fingers. Today, I have the wonderful Tori - Dare to be Different to share with you, by the always talented Heather Valentin!
Here's a coloring tutorial on how I got that wild hair, using Copic markers!
I'll start with her skin tones: E000, E00, E04, E11, E21
There's a bit of R20 on her cheeks, and R21 & R22 on her lips...
Now, for the wild hair! I started with my darkest color first - B99:
Then, I added B93, and RV 29
Next, V04 and RV25 are added.
The last 2 colors I added were C01, and RV21.
I decided she needed a bright outfit, too. I used:
Gloves -- YG11, YG13, YG17
Sweater -- R11, RV32, RV34, E04, brightened with RV21 & RV23
Jacket/pants -- YR14, YR18, E15, E18
stripes -- YG11, YG15, YG17
Shoes -- B21, B23, B26, B28, YG11, YG13, YG17
Bricks -- E50, E31, E33, E34
All that's left is the skateboard and letters. Better make it colorful!
Skateboard -- B00, B01, B04, B06
Heart -- R20, R22, R27, R29
Wings -- Y04
Wheels -- Y06, Y08, Y28
Letters -- FYG2, FYG1, FY1, FYR1
And, here is Tori - Dare to be Different made into a card --
