Description
I think I'm slowly getting out of my art block.. cuz I'm pretty happy with this... now, i just need to start actually doing some natural medium art.. I've been wanting to learn how to do color pencils, or markers, but I haven't cuz I'm so afraid I'm gonna ruin the lineart once I try to color... maybe, simple chibi doodles before i try to start more complex drawings... yeaaah.. maybe... uh.. anyway... Kit (c) me..

such a beautiful picture o.o i'm lovin the persepctive, not often that i see the birdseye view.
what you could do if yur afraid of coloring the line art is scan it in once you finish inkin ur whatever then print it out. then you don't have to worry bout messing up your picture at all. and...by the way this looks...i don't think you'd be too bad with colors o.o you'd be great. and, y'know, practice makes perfect ^^ practice at it and you'll be wonderful.

love that angle..
i was pretty confident with using color pencils.. but i think i lost my touch.. i was always horride with markers.. i always seemed to funk it up some how.. hehehe..
~cari has some good advice about using crayolas then going to prizmas.. i should try that.. i just hope my prizmas are still good.. oh well
but ya very nice picture imma fav it!!
oh and a tip from me photocopies work like a charm good practice to get the colors you want on it before you mess up the original... i always used to just trace over my orig and then colored it for a final... so i would have a pencil one a pen one and a colored one when i was done.. oh and a stack of messed up photocopy ones..
also a little trick is to use a light blue color pencil(non-photo blue) use that to draw with and ink over it nicely and when you photocopy the blue wont show.. only the inked parts.. i did it by accident bored in class but it actually worked out pretty good..

I actually have the light blue color pencils.. but it shows when you scan it... so.. i haven't really used it so much... maybe i'll try those again... I need a photocopy machine...

ya they come out in a scan.. so that doesn't work out too good..
if you have a fax machine it might work on that.. not sure though i never tried it on a fax...
i just bought a new 12 pack of pencils.. hehehe still unsharpened..
i have a larger set but i try not to use those soo much.. i go through my pencils too fast sometimes hehe

you know how I learned markers? I drew a lineart- and copied it like three times, and practiced with crayolas until i got a style I liked- then i tried it with my prismas

Theres another way to learn how to use natural medium art. After you draw something, scan it, then print out the line are, and use that to learn to color with what ever you wana use. That way your wont mess up the line art.
