Made a figure sketch that just screamed Silverfish to me, so I finished him with my promarkers. Had to finish my sweet boy.
Made in a brown sketchbook that worked surprisingly well with markers, no feathering and doesn't eat the pigment, too bad I only got two pages left
This is actually the first time I really tried to mix color pencil with alcohol markers. Used to be a snob about it, but I am better now.

Oh, he looks so burly and rather handsome. Such a cool pose it seems to me that he's just getting up. Love the colors and the colored paper you used.

I love the way the colours look on the brown paper.

Oh I love discovering new papers that work with markers, especially coloured paper.

Thanks guys! =D Yeah the brown paper really shines through. Some of the spots are from dousing it in hairspray, works great at fixing oil pastels. I guess it intimidates me to use markers on brown paper, it sometimes really soaks up the pigment, but this worked really well. Too bad I only discovered it here at the end

Practice builds skill and a comfort level to experiment even more. I admit while I've played around with various paper and media, I still tend to be a bit hesitant to experiment with new things. Really should get over that. So, great job! This reminds me so much of a woodworking, and the colors you've used against the brown are perfect for it. Silverfish looks contemplative to me, and I can't help but wonder what he's thinking. You're making me think I need to draw him...
