Just because I'm having my own issues.........

What is your favorite way to color your images?
Copics?
SU markers?
Watercolors?
prismacolors and OMS?
other??

Which method have you seen that you think looks the best??

Danni, I definitely have to say it is copics. I love the blending that you are able to achieve with them and the rich vibrant colors. Second would have to be my prismacolor pencils for the same reasons. Hope this helps!

Smiles,

I like using everything...currently the new copics except I don't have many colors. 2nd would be the prismacolor pencils even though I'm too lazy to blend with the OMS. 3rd choice would be the SU watercolor crayons when I have clean blending pens to use!

I like using prismacolor pencels, they blend so nicely. I would love to try Copics because I've hear they're amazing...just too pricey for right now. I'm not sure I'm any help.

Hi Danni,
I'm loving my Copics right now but I love my Prismacolor pencils with OMS. I love the blending of both.

I suck at coloring. I use Marvy markers, I think I'm gonna try to find some Bic ones.

Hmmm... I like Tombow (SU) markers to watercolor with, but I tend to go back and forth between my Prisma pencils and my ChartPak markers the most. (Chartpaks are like Copics) I plan to get Copics next because I really love the look of markers! Sometimes it just depends on the image.

my favourite is my Faber Castell Polychromos pencils, similar to the Prismas you have in the USA. On smooth cardstock I don't even need OMS and if I go outside the lines it's simple to rub out! Now that I've got a good smooth hot pressed water colour card I also like painting with Distress Inks, but I need more practice. I find Copics and Promarkers harder as I have to work faster and mistakes are visible! Plus the Copics cost an arm and a leg in the UK!

I have to agree with most....copics and then prisma pencils.

My "beloved" Copics are my all-time favorite!! Once you try Copics, you'll never use anything else! (at least that's how I feel!) :)

Well....not that I have really tried a lot...I've used my Zig markers, then got Primas and then the OMS to use with them which I loved, then used the aquapainters with my Zigs, but then I found the Copics and I haven't looked back. I just love the bright vivid coloring. And I built my collection a few at a time by buying them singly. Good luck on your quest Danni! Hope you get your issues worked out.

Copics are absolutely my favorite, I don't color any other way now :)
