Coloring

[grim edge]

Hey! I've been having some trouble with Winsor & Newton Pro-markers. I watched many videos of these markers before purchasing them. On videos, their color was nice, even, and clear but when I used them they've become darker and lighter in some spots and don't look as nice. Even when I go at a quick pace there's still a difference... Is there any way to fix this..?

Let me know if you need any photos!

It just looks off

Idk if that’s because I haven’t outlined it or something

Idk

Are these alcohol markers?

If so you actually want to take it slower when coloring rather than fast

Otherwise it will come out splotchy and uneven

Are you using the proper paper? How are layering the colors onto the paper?

I'm not too sure, should I send a link here?

I'm using high quality paper atm and I've only been using the base color

Yeah thats alcohol based

You need to not make fast brush strokes

It will make it streaky and splotchy

Color slowly so you are getting it well covered on the paper

[grim edge]

oh alright

so that's all?

When I do it slowly it gets really dark

idk

Not too slow. Not too fast

Also work when its still slightly wet like ypud do with watercolors so less streaks. Once the ink dries then youll start getting more streaks

[grim edge]

hmm

alright!
