This section is less tutorial and more information and my opinions on some art equipment ^_^;. Be aware that
I'm definitely more of a CG (computer coloring) type artist, so my equipment and preferences tend to reflect that~.
And again, these are all MY opinions, so please don't take offense if you see your favorite art tool being labeled as bad or something ^_^;;; Page 1 -- Pencils, Paper, and Erasers.

 Binder & Sheet Protectors The best way I've found to store pictures on loose sheets of paper! This way they won't get bent or lost, and take up less space~.  Prismacolor Colored Pencils The best colored pencils I've found yet~ ^_^. Smooth, rich colors, and infinitely better than Crayola... don't use Crayola if you can help it O_O!  Prismacolor Markers Nice markers. Much better than Crayola, anyways. Sharp and smooth colors...but they're practically impossible to blend. So they're just fine for cell-style coloring. But for soft style, either don't use markers, or try Copics. (below)  Copic Markers Great, great markers. I've only tried the "sketch" variety...and those have a wonderful brush type nib that allows for a wide range of styles and effects. The one big drawback is the price. They're insanely expensive, and they're sold in very few stores (most of the time people have to buy them over the internet T_T)  Paper Cutter This is very optional...but still...very useful for many, many things O_O! If you've drawn a CG that won't fit / print perfectly on an 8.5 x 11 paper, just use the paper cutter to slice off the ugly white sections! The same for if you've drawn traditional art that's smaller than the paper size~. Art looks a whole lot better on paper that's been cut smooth and straight XD. |
