thank you for answering! and i understand about more practice and planning colors out, i did this one of kagome on computer paper way back when i first started getting them: sugar0o.deviantart.com/.../... somehow i didnt really think about it, red listick on her looks horrible. @_@ and either way i cant wait to see a tut from you on this! I actually have Ecthelian's tut in my favorites!

Quoting

omfg I love you! this is so freaking hot! Why does the pelt alwasy have to cover things! TT3TT So sexy! What kidna paper did you use? what copic colors did you use for the shadowing? i see purples in there, or is that like e04?

No dangly bits because I find it endlessly amusing to be a tease. >:3 (And doing said bits.. erm… justice..)

The paper I’ve been using is the A4 size “Copic Bleedproof Marker Pad.” I’m not sure if I like it or not, but I don’t really have enough experience with markers and other paper yet to judge. It just seems to be kind of hard to blend colors sometimes.

And, oh yes, I use purple! The colors I used for the skin were: E00, YR00, R20, BV00, W-3, and W-5. I think that’s all of them.

I’m just starting figure out that I need to plan out where colors go before I start coloring. >_>; I think I still need more practice/experiments/staring at other people’s work before I can do a decent tutorial. But if you’re looking for one, I found Ecthelian’s on DA ecthelian.deviantart.com/gallery/#/d1402k6 to be incredibly helpful.

Oh my! That's dreamy!

Utterly gorgeous and once I could actually drag my eyes off Sesshoumaru, lol, I found the green background very engaging as well. I like the subtle swirls and flowers. The whole thing is just beautiful.

Oh..my...i wish i'd seen this yesterday..when i had nothing to do, and could stare at it forever...or at least till monday morning came knocking.
