Colouring with spectrum noir markers - Drink up by The paper shelter


Hello, Today I'm going to be writing about this beautiful image its called Drink up and is available to purchase from www.thepapershelter.com, I came across this site via google, and I'm so glad I did. I emailed the lovely team and the said it was fine for me to there images for my you tube channel and blog, These digis are great excellent value, You don't only get the line digi but you also get a coloured image, a printable backing paper and you also get a coloured image merged onto the backing paper also, The price of them for what you get is excellent they are $3.00 which roughly works out at around £2.05 and there is such a wide rage to choose from, you will be spoilt for choice.  


I have been combining a lot of the brands of pens I use in the videos but for this one I wanted to do a full spectrum noir colouring video.

For her hair I used GB9, CT4, LY4
For her skin I used: TN2, FS1, CR3


Her dress I had a lot of fun colouring this, fabric folds have never really been a strong point for me but I love the way they finished, I started by mapping out the colours starting with TB5, then TB4, then finally TB3, then starting again with the darkest colour, I went back over and blended the colours, I then add just a line of  TB7 where I really wanted the fold to stand out.

For her apron I used IG3, IG1 and the blender pen to soften the lines


For the potion bottle i just used the lighter shades of her dress TB3, TB4 with a little of GT2 and  GT1 
For the table i used GB10 and GB8
And then for her lips I used CR4 and her Eyes TB2

I did create a colour chart for her, while I was trying to decide what colour I was going to choose for her for the video, and decided to go with blue.



Here are the colour combination I came up with

Thanks for stopping by  and here is the video
