Here is our first image. Lets start with her skin.

Skin: Color, in a small circular motion, with E50, Shade

around hair and shadow areas with E00 and then blend
with E50.

Hair: Hair and all Copic coloring is the same way, base
color first, darker color, blend with original color. So
E31 first. E35 for darker brunette hair. Blend with E31.
Add E37 for darkest areas of hair, blend with E35.

You can add highlights with the “Blender Pen”. The

Blender Pen (BP) can also clean up when you color “out
of the lines”. Lie the pen flat next to the color outside
the line. PUSH the color back into the colored area.
You really are using the blender solution to PUSH the
color back to where it belongs. So this mean that:

1. You definitely don’t want to use too much

solution to push the color or it tends to bleed.
2. You’ll need to PRACTICE!! **Caution: Copic
mastery becomes an addiction!!**
 happen!! I’ve done it many times….lol. Then continue
on with B37, blend with B34. And finish blending and
clean up with your blender pen.

Hair finished and outside the lines” coloring PUSHED

back into place.

Now on to the Jeans:

Best Jeans Color Combo: B32, B34, B37

This is the combo recommended by many of the best

Copic users in our Paper Crafting World. I like how they
turn out. So repeat the same steps. B32 all over. B34
where the jeans would naturally be darker and
shadows.

Then BLEND the colors together with B32. Now this

doesn’t mean blend AWAY the B34, which does
And there are your finished jeans!! They look pretty
good!

Tip: If you are burning dinner, just walk away from your
Copic creation and don’t worry!! Because these are
Copics, the ink will act like you just put it on even if it
dries. Marianne, the rep for Copics, told me that she
has re-wet images up to 2 years after the originally
coloring.
To re-wet your image: use the lightest color and “wet”
or go over the entire area again. You’ll be able to start
where you left off without a problem.

Now on to her shirt. First color entire area with RV10.

Then use RV13 and RV14 to darken at shadows. Now, I
am gonna assume that this chick has some cleavage so I
am darkening under her bosom.
Tip: If the BACK of your paper is saturated with color,
you did GREAT!! Copics absorb into the paper and will
bleed to the back when used correctly. This is why
having a scratch piece of paper behind your work is
sooooo important. If your paper is on a desk surface, it
will move around and create all kinds of havoc for ya.

And after blending, here is your final image.

So here is the back of our girl, you’ll see that we did
pretty good!!
