Copic markers
« on: April 02, 2012, 08:31:38 AM »
Would Copic markers work to do details on ponies? Anyone try this?


Thanks!

I wouldn't use any type of markers on ponies.  They'll bleed and fade into the plastic.  For details, just get a very small brush.  I like liners to do fine lines and such. :)

They also don't work very well on top of acrylic, so FBR wouldn't be of much help either.

Copics are alcohol based you can think of them like sharpies which have a tendency to bleed. If you wanted a pseudo highlighter effect on a pony I'm sure they could be used. I don't think you could use them as you would paints though.
