Can I ask what colors you used for the skin? xDDD

Of course! :3 I used Prismacolor pencils for this, using beige (PC997) as the base layer. Then, I went over the cheek and shaded areas with carmine red (PC926), orange (PC918), and peach (PC939) and blended them all outward using a colorless pencil (PC1077). I was trying to go for Sakura-Joker's coloring style, but she uses copics, so I had to improvise a bit. It's a very fun style to test run : ) Beige has always been my go to, regardless.

Awesome! I hope they are as good to you as they have been to me! Have you tried them out yet?
Yeah, I have a small pack of Faber Castell, but the peach is a little sandy to me. I understand your pain, for sure. Prismacolor has a lot more vibrancy in their pencils ^^
Aw, thanks! I really like the simplicity of her style. You can focus a lot more on poses and concepts which I really enjoy. :3

Back when I was choosing colored pencils, I read a bunch of reviews that were saying Faber Castell was better for various reasons. Now, they are really good, and are certainly pro-grade, but after I tried out the Prismacolors I bought, the Prismacolors feel smoother. I wish I'd just went with them right away; they're cheaper, too.

The leads of Faber Castells don't get used up as quickly since they are harder and I don't think they brake as easily, but I've always had the preference for Prismacolor. :/ I actually thought that Faber Castell was cheaper. Dang. Gosh, I'm sorry. That's a real bummer!

Haven't been able to get over him since they first mentioned his backstory
