Marker Tutorial Pt.2 Skin
Picture information
Description:
Okay moving on now to the skin this one will be a little short because there isn’t too much to this one. It’s colored in the same manner as the hair, moving from lightest to darkest.
First, I put down a base color with an old slightly dried out #12-Light Peach making sure to make the coloring heavier in the middle of the limbs, cause that’s where the darkest part of the leg was going to be with lights and shadows. I like using a dried out marker for this because, in my opinion, it gives you a lighter tone, which helps in situations like this. (edit- This is also a little old, since I did this Prismacolor has come out with more colors so all you would really need is a lighter shade of skin tone.)
Next, I applied the shadow layer with a new Light Peach.
Finally, I colored in the lips with a #129-Dahlia Purple and the eyes with #95-Light Tan, #106-Warm Grey 80%, and #88-Dark Brown in that order. Then blended the skin tones and added highlights with a white pen and pencil.
Now once again if you needed to, you could add another shade darker to this if that’s what the picture required. And if anyone has any questions about anything just leave a comment and I’ll try to answer it as best I can. Next is clothing. ^_^
