Testing new markers! (Drawing inside)

in art •  5 years ago 

Sometimes you forget what you buy!

A few weeks back I bought this set of felt tip markers to try them out! This was way before the lockdown btw! I bought them at a store called the Aldi! While you might think that the Aldi is a cheap store, these pens were not that cheap. I paid 5 euro for this set! That's also not expensive either btw but just a tad more then the really cheap sets you can buy out there! Anywho, they looked amazing and screamed my name, so I took them home. Funny enough, I did not use them until last night!

I found my sketchbook and when I looked to the right, I saw these markers and chuckled. Time to give them a try. I am happy and not happy! With the green you see spots! I don't like to see spots! With spots I mean that you see that I went over the same spot twice and the color becomes darker. Perhaps its the fact that I love to work with inkts like ecoline where that stuff never happens! BUT, so far it only happend with one color. The other colors I used were okays. Kinda bright in a way as well, which I like. The black... Hmmm not 100% sure. It did go over the other colors well and that is something I liked. BUT, I don't think it's black enough. In fact, I do think these pens don't hold enough pigment for my style of work seeing that I sometimes need to color big parts. These markers have double points, a brush tip and a fineliner. I noticed that the fineliners don't really work that well. For kids and normal coloring in colorbooks I think these pens are good enough! If you want to create a tad more, I would advice not to use these! Or mix them up!

I am going to try a few more drawings with them. Just because I want to test all the colors. I must say that I like my drawing, I always had a thing with eyes! LOL.
Here are the progress pictures of the eye thingy!

Progress pictures!

That is nice drawing, you are right everyone tries at least once to draw or paint eyes, Iris is the most interesting organ and because of the colors and its complexity we can't resist. I like the colors and how you build them up, going from simple into more complex. It is a nice side effect of being locked down.
